This updated yet nostalgic beachfront cottage captures the essence of island life—salt air, sandy toes, and endless sunsets—all wrapped in a lovingly maintained home by its full-time owners.
From the moment you arrive, you'll feel the warmth and character of this classic beach cottage, with its painted exposed ceiling beams, knotty pine walls, and grandfathered ground-floor living space—a rare and coveted feature on the island. Several thoughtful upgrades by the current owners have been done to enhance the functionality and comfort of the home while preserving the nostalgic charm that makes it truly special.
Step inside and discover plenty of space for family and friends to relax and reconnect, whether gathering in the open living area, cooking in the nicely updated kitchen offering a rare extra large pantry, or stepping out to soak in the panoramic ocean views. Offered furnished with a few exceptions, this home is move-in ready and filled with character that can't be replicated. The downstairs offers an ADDITIONAL kitchenette & sitting area with the 3rd bedroom making a GREAT seperate living area with it's own mini split. The attached garage is perfect for storing your car, and golf cart or LSV, with room to spare for all your beach gear. Recent improvements throughout ensure worry-free ownership, while the inviting décor and coastal details make every day feel like a vacation.
Whether you're searching for a personal retreat, a rental opportunity, or a place to create generations of memories, 1001 W Beach Drive is the perfect blend of Sand, Salt, Sea, and Sunsets.
