About This Home
As of April 2021Welcome to Sand Hills! This warm and inviting ranch home has been lovingly maintained and updated! Gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout this traditional coastal gem which features an entertainment sized living room with wood-burning fireplace and built in window seats. The updated kitchen boasts new cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances along with a bright and sunny dining area! The large, newly painted deck offers outdoor living space in the fenced, shade-filled backyard which contains a sizable storage shed for all your beach and boating supplies. The unfinished attic has a significant amount of space and presents possibilities of future expansion. This home is located close to the lighthouse, the shops and restaurants of Front Street and Sand Hills beach (yet is not in the current flood zone)! It is perfect for year round living or as a weekend getaway!
