About This Home

As of June 2023

EXCELLENT Southside location!! The Interurban trail system is just behind the condo. The trails can take you to the bay one way and Fairhaven Village and the rest of the Interurban Trail system which goes all the way to Larrabee State Park. You can go days or weeks without using your car if you wish. Enjoy cozy mornings and nights with the fireplace burning and welcoming you into the kitchen and living room. The primary bedroom is down one level from the upper main area. The primary bedroom is a nice retreat space with a walk-out deck. Upper level features 2 front facing bedrooms. The partial- bay and ocean view can be enjoyed from inside or outside on the deck.
