Renovated Two-Bedroom Cottage by the Water This beautifully designed turnkey cottage is far from ordinary. Raised to one level and fully renovated, it offers both flexible owner living with seasonal rental potential, making it the perfect blend of lifestyle and investment. From the moment you arrive, the spacious front paver driveway welcomes you with room for two cars and a golf cart, while the pavers continue along the side of the home, leading to a private rear deck. The large front porch, furnished with plenty of chairs, is ideal for enjoying the neighborhood atmosphere and visiting with friends as they stroll by. Inside, every detail has been thoughtfully updated. New subfloors and vinyl plank flooring run throughout, complemented by three mini split units for efficient heating and cooling, all just two years old. The living room is cozy and inviting, furnished with a reclining sofa, an overstuffed chair, and a wall-mounted TV-perfect for settling in to watch a movie. Several nearly floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light, creating a bright and cheerful atmosphere. The bathroom is a showpiece, featuring a space-saving pocket door, glass shower, and a stylish vanity with a breezy, beach-inspired feel. Down the hall, the guest bedroom is furnished with a queen bed and nightstands, while the master bedroom offers another queen bed, a double closet, and built-in night shelves. The kitchen and dining area are impressively spacious, with room for a full table and chairs, including a pantry, and cabinets galore. A double sink sits beneath a window, butcher block countertops add warmth, and stainless steel appliances-even a dishwasher and five-burner stove-make cooking a pleasure. Everything you need to move right in is included, from pots and pans to dishes and décor, all illuminated by recessed lighting. Step out the rear door and you'll find a large private deck designed for entertaining. A table for eight sits beneath a sun shade, perfect for outdoor dining and BBQs. A generous storage shed with an extra refrigerator, along with a second shed tucked beneath the deck, provide ample space for all your extras. On the side of the deck, a full-size, covered washer and dryer add convenience. Additional upgrades include five new double-pane windows, a new breaker box, and insulation, ensuring comfort and efficiency year-round. The closet doors are presently being installed. This cottage is truly turnkey, offering everything you need to enjoy coastal living immediately. Whether you're seeking a seasonal rental or family vacations, this home delivers charm, functionality, and modern style in one package.
