SOUNDFRONT. This property's picture should be in the dictionary beside the word peaceful. The cutest 2 bedroom 2 bath home is located in a picturesque waterfront setting minutes from the beach on a quiet dead end street in an off-the-beaten-path residential neighborhood. The lack of traffic noise, the din of tourist activity, and the glare of parking lot lights are absent. Whether you'd live here year-round or visit on the weekends, as you turn down the street you will exhale deeply and relax the closer you get to the home. In this quiet community, adults and kids bike and walk safely and the neighbors keep an eye out for unknown cars on the street. This is a private paradise with established landscaping on both sides of the property so you feel alone while relaxing in your back yard. You will revel in the water views visible from the open living area and the master bedroom with a wall of Andersen windows facing the sound. All planned so you don't miss nature on your doorstep - blue herons looking for a snack at dusk, pelicans skimming over the water, the dolphins swimming by, or purple martins dancing over the water and in the sky. In the mornings, enjoy your coffee on the secluded front deck while watching the sun rise or on the boardwalk along the bulkhead on the sound watching crabbers set their pots. In the afternoons, the sunsets can't be missed. This is a cozy house that invites you to kick off your shoes and make yourself at home the instant you walk in the door. 25 years ago the seller bought this house which was a mere 592 square feet with one little closet. Two additions and two remodels later, it is now a cozy refuge with more than adequate storage. The great room is comfortable for daily living but also lends itself to entertaining. A sliding glass door leads to the soundfront screened porch which extends the full length of the great room of 32 feet. That means plenty of room for grilling and socializing while handy to the kitchen. Whether you're a cook or a baker, this kitchen will appeal to you. Particular attention was paid to selecting the countertops. The grain of the granite hides little cooking messes from guests and is the perfect surface for rolling out pastry dough. The downstairs full bathroom is large enough for the Energy Star washer/dryer. Is that a tile floor? No, it isn't but you won't believe it until you see it. Easier to clean, never a broken tile and you don't ever have to buy grout cleaner. In 2003, a 20 ft x 32 ft addition was built with 2 inch x 6 inch walls for extra insulation that keeps the electric bill low and provides noise insulation between the rooms and the garage -opening the garage door can barely be heard upstairs. Downstairs noises of tv or cooking don't reach the sleeping area. Large 14'x19' master bedroom has a unique walk-in closet with built-in dresser drawers. Deep roomy 720 sf garage with work area and work benches, shelving, ceiling fan, 4- 8 inch overhead lights w extra outlets plus wired for welding equipment. Public water with well for landscaping. 30 amp outlet for RV electric hookup, outside shower with dressing area. Convenient 10X20 storage shed. 2-ton heat pump in 2003. 2-ton heat pump in 2004. Compressor replaced under warranty in 2010. Roof on single story approx. 1995. 25 year shingles. Roof on addition 2003 has 30 year shingles. Recessed lights throughout. EZ to show! Look in Assoc.
