Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and shows pride of ownership with several key updates. While originally built in 1963, it features modern wood-look flooring, double-pane windows, and vaulted ceilings that create a contemporary feel. One bathroom has been tastefully updated with a new vanity and herringbone tile flooring, although another bathroom retains older tile countertops. The exterior decks and systems like central forced-air heating appear well-maintained, placing it firmly in the 'good' category despite its chronological age.
The property is ideally situated steps from Hidden Beach and the Seascape community, offering easy access to miles of white sand, coastal trails, golf, and local dining.
Featuring a separate fourth bedroom with a private entrance and potential for an additional bath, the home is perfectly configured for a high-performing vacation rental or guest suite.
Sweeping ocean views are maximized by expansive sunny decks, soaring vaulted ceilings, and an open floor plan that creates a bright and airy coastal living environment.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
