About This Home

As of April 2026

This is a property that truly captures the essence of coastal golf course living and one you won't want to miss. Situated along the second fairway of the Seascape Golf Club, 424 Palmer Avenue is an updated Spanish-style home full of charm, style, and thoughtful detail. Inside, the living room welcomes you with a fireplace, skylights, and an attractive chandelier that instantly makes the space feel like home. Just off the main living area is a convenient downstairs bedroom with its own en-suite bath ideal for guests or extended family. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features a large walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom. Throughout the home, you'll find beautiful hardwood and tile flooring, abundant natural light, custom touches that add character and comfort, a gas fireplace, dedicated office space, radiant floor heating downstairs, and extra parking are just a few more of the thoughtful features that make this home so special. The outdoor space is just as impressive, with an expansive paver patio designed for both relaxing and entertaining, and only 1 mile to Rio Del Mar State Beach. Multiple seating areas, planting beds, and direct access to the fairway make this a perfect spot to enjoy the tranquil beauty of the golf course setting.
