Other highlights include a screened-in porch, attached carport (easily convertible to a third bedroom or enclosed garage), a metal roof (2018), water heater (2020),HVAC(2024) and a whole-home Generac generator (2020).
Whether you're seeking a turn-key investment or a place to call home, 148 Birch Street captures the essence of 30A living relaxed, stylish, and full of opportunity.
