This 1960 mid-century modern in Morro Bay, CA has seen some things. It was the backdrop for adult films in the 1980-1990s, so it's got an interesting history. 3bds, 3ba, 1,369 sq ft, $990k.

Look at how attractive it is outside. This is cute.

The living room has a unique 2 step platform for the wood stove. I like the shade of green they chose.

In the corner, there's a cute little built-in counter, plus room for a dining table. Architectural features include high, cut-out ceilings with windows and skylights.

Love the kitchen colors. Lots of natural light, vaulted wood ceiling, lovely blue tile and that tree really makes it pop.

Nice guest powder room has a sink that matches the kitchen.

Bedroom with a vaulted ceiling.

And, this bedroom has a ladder going thru an opening in the ceiling that leads to a loft. That's a unique architectural feature.

The primary bedroom has a skylight, thick beams with pot lights, a garden window, and a large en-suite.

The bath has the same blue mosaics that match the kitchen, plus a sunken tub and a rock wall.

Some round MCM sinks with gold swan faucets that are 'in" right now.

Lattice covered patio includes an outdoor kitchen with blue mosaics.

Stairs go up to a gate that opens to a lovely roof top deck. Look at the view.

It's so nice up here.

And, there's a little outdoor laundry area.

This unique house really stands out in the neighborhood. It's not far from the ocean, either. 2,400 sq ft lot
