About This Home

‘Stars & Starfish Cottage’ is a recently updated raised ranch with the unique addition of a lovely sunroom - enjoy early morning coffee or cozy up to the fireplace after a winter walk on the beach. Located just north of the bridge with a quick walk to restaurants, mini golf and parks (pickle ball, tennis, bocce ball courts). Recent upgrades include: new roof, new decks & rails, new fiberglass roof top deck, freshly painted and decorated. Offers three bedrooms and 2 full baths (one primary suite). Great Room with vaulted ceiling and skylights for a bright and airy feel. Roomy kitchen with additional beverage fridge. The two-car garage offers great space for ping pong and corn hole. Behind the garage is the Family ‘fun room’. Heated and air conditioned offering the kids or the ‘kids at heart’ a place to hang out to watch TV, do puzzles or play board games. The spacious 60 x 100 lot is nicely landscaped and fully fenced with a raised outdoor dining area. Perfect for summer BBQ’s with pets and little ones. Take in the colorful sunset on the roof top deck, roll out the awning on a sunny day on the main deck or find a shady spot in the yard to enjoy your new ‘beach read’. This home comes turn-key. Came on rental market late in 2025, booked 10 weeks can increase rates in 2026, if desired. This location and lot size offers future house expansion, along with pool/cabana possibilities.
