About This Home

Tucked into a quiet street in the highly coveted south end of Avalon, this charming home sits on a generous 60 x 110 lot just 1.5 blocks from a pristine, guarded beach. Tastefully refreshed in 2023, this home is ready to deliver — whether as a spacious family retreat, a high-performing rental, or the perfect canvas for your dream summer home. The first floor offers exceptional flexibility, with three or four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a well-appointed mudroom and laundry room. One of the four first floor bedrooms is currently used as a bunk room. The rear-facing fourth bedroom is sprawling and currently utilized as a family room — a perfect bridge to the rear yard if a pool were to be added. Upstairs, the home opens into a dramatic, light-filled great room with soaring cathedral ceilings and an open floor plan that was made for gathering. The kitchen flows naturally into a large, sun-drenched sunroom finished with ceramic tile flooring and walls of windows overlooking the spacious rear yard — a space that effortlessly blurs the line between indoors and out. Step through to the wraparound deck and you have the kind of sun-exposed outdoor living that Avalon summers are built around. The second floor is rounded out by a generous en-suite primary bedroom with a beautifully finished bathroom featuring a double vanity, granite countertops, and a tiled shower, along with a stunning powder room. Beyond the home itself, the rear yard offers plenty of room for a pool — and while the property sits on the north side of the street, the orientation to the westerly neighbors is such that the yard is likely to enjoy sun for most of the afternoon. A massive full-car garage could easily be retrofitted into part garage, part cabana. The paver driveway offers tons of off-street parking, and additional touches — a mechanical awning on the second floor deck and a large outdoor shower — round out a property that is as practical as it is charming. Properties offering this optionality in the south end of Avalon rarely stay on the market long — schedule your showing today.
