Absolutely perfect beachside retreat! Two bedroom, one bath home with attached and insulated one-car garage with three seperate outbuildings. This home exudes charm from the moment it is viewed from the street! A beautifully landscaped front yard leads to the main entry that opens into the delightful livingroom where you are greeted by honey-colored wood volume ceilings and white tiled floors. There is a sizable kitchen with Whirlpool appliances including dishwasher, range, microwave and refrigerator with automatic ice maker (Maytag). The cabinets are solid wood and there is a two-person built-in breakfast bar at one end of the countertop as well as an area for an eat-in table . The separate dining room gives ample space to entertain and has one wall that is adorned with brick fascia. Both bedrooms have sizable closets and square footage to accomodate full+ sized beds. The bathroom has a vanity, commode and large, walk-in shower with glass doors. Off to the west side of the home is a 23'x10' Flordia Room accessed through double French doors from the dining room. This lovely screened room has dual ceiling fans with light fixtures, a moulded paver floor and is the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee or enjoy a post-day cocktail. The two-year new, 3 ton HVAC system is powerful enough to cool the Florida Room if desired. Roof and septic drainfield replaced in 2002. Three outbuildings can be found in the backyard. One 8'x10' building houses the homeowner's lawn implements and another 8'x10' building houses tools. The third 10'x16' outbuilding is constructed of Hardyboard and has been insulated, drywalled, electrified and air conditioned with its own wall unit to make the perfect He/She shed. The one car garage has also been finished and is cooled by its own wall AC unit. In it you will find an 18-month old matching Whirlpool washer and dryer set which will be conveyed with purchase. Unlike most homes of similar age, the exterior of this solid, concrete block constructed home has been stuccoed and painted. Additionally, the roof has two layers of plywood with a core of insulation sandwiched between them making this home, exceptionally snug and enery efficient. The hot water heater is only one week old! With ample storage options and two lovely patios, one front and one side-yard, this is the perfect home for anyone desiring a beach retreat. Both the ocean and Intercoastal Waterway are within steps from the front door!
