Property Description

This beautifully modernized, single-level beach house perfectly blends modern upgrades with classic coastal charm. As you step onto the front deck, you'll be greeted by stunning west coast views. The living room is a cozy retreat, featuring a Rinnai Propane wood stove and a large picture window overlooking the sunny front deck. The heart of this home is the kitchen, offering ample countertops and views of the fully fenced backyard. The lower dining room, with its large slider door, seamlessly connects the indoor and outdoor entertaining areas. One of the most appealing features is the newly added primary bedroom, boasting a private entrance with a closet, vaulted ceilings, a spacious second walk-in closet, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with custom tile floors and a shower. With a growing preference for single-story residences, this property perfectly meets that demand. The spacious and private backyard is ideal for both entertaining and gardening, while the securely fenced front yard provides privacy and a safe haven for pets. Additionally, the property offers ample storage with a two-car garage with laundry center and an adjoining utility room. This home also includes a full-service Generac 16kw whole-house generator with auto-start, and a custom-built storage shed. Located just minutes from downtown and the beach, this home merges coastal charm with functional modern amenities.
