Situated just 1.5 blocks from the ocean on the coveted Palm Avenue, this property offers exceptional walkability to the beach, local breweries, and new eateries.
The building is short-term rental (STR) approved and VA-complex approved, making it an ideal asset for both vacation rental investors and military buyers.
The home features a recently renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, fresh paint, and a fully remodeled bathroom, providing immediate move-in value.
The three-level layout requires navigating multiple flights of stairs daily, which may not appeal to buyers with mobility concerns or those seeking a more open floor plan.
With 1,035 square feet distributed over three floors, the individual living areas and bedrooms may feel smaller and more segmented than single-level units of similar size.
