Grover Beach Homes on the Market Right Now

If you're house hunting in Grover Beach, you're going to find a wide range of options—from compact condos to expansive estates. Prices start just over $500,000 and stretch well above $2 million. But here's what actually matters: value per square foot, usability of the space, proximity to the coast, and long-term livability.

Entry-Level: Compact, Modern, and Pricey Per Square Foot

At the lowest price point, you’ve got Unit 319 at 402 W Grand. It’s a 1-bed, 1-bath condo listed at $539,630 for just 506 square feet. That’s over $1,000 per square foot. You’re paying for new construction, luxury finishes, and walkability—not space.If you're a minimalist or looking for a lock-and-leave coastal retreat, it works. But if you need elbow room, you’ll need to go up in price.

Mid-Range Sweet Spot: $650K–$750K

Several homes fall into this range with varying pros and cons:

• 1699 Longbranch Ave is the best price per square foot right now at $429, with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. It’s in a planned unit development with a $265/month HOA, but it’s turnkey and cleanly updated.

• 572 Mentone Ave and 884 Longbranch Ave are both listed at $699,900. Mentone is a probate listing but well updated. The Longbranch property offers private balconies and no HOA, with a slightly smaller footprint.

• 534 S 6th St sits just above this range at $720,000. It’s a charming, updated bungalow with a solid layout and new detached garage, but only 994 sqft.

These are solid options for primary homes or weekend places with decent proximity to the sand. The key differentiators are HOA fees, outdoor space, and modernity.

Unique Properties and Tradeoffs

Some listings stand out for their quirks or configuration:

• 379 N Third St is technically a 2-bed, 1-bath home, but the garage was converted into a third bedroom and bathroom (per seller, not confirmed permitted). That puts the actual living space near 1,000 sqft, but the listed 770 sqft drives up the price per foot to $1,006.

• 23 Atlantic City Ave is tucked into an 8-unit complex with low HOA dues. At $699,000 for 1,215 sqft, you get walkability to the dunes and a peaceful courtyard layout.

Buyers looking for something move-in ready without a massive footprint will want to compare these options directly.

High-End Options: New Builds, Views, and Dual-Use Homes

If you're shopping in the $1M+ range, Grover Beach has a few properties with real upside:

• 277 N 4th St is a brand-new 4-bed home with rooftop deck and modern layout. At just under $1.2 million, it’s a standout for design and new construction.

• 588 S 7th St offers almost 4,000 sqft, five ensuite bedrooms, and pre-approved rooftop deck plans for $1.6 million. It’s a statement property that could fit multigenerational needs or function as a luxury rental.

• 451 N 13th St includes a 4-bed main home plus a 3-bed ADU that’s currently rented at $3,830/month. That $2.15 million price tag comes with built-in income and modern finishes across both units.

For the right buyer, these aren’t just homes—they’re functional assets.

What This Means for Buyers Right Now

• Condos and small homes are pricing high per square foot. If you're space-sensitive, look at listings over 1,200 sqft.

• Well-located midrange homes are still available under $750K, but they’re moving fast.

• ADUs, rooftop decks, and large lots are driving higher prices. Make sure those features match your lifestyle, not just your budget.
