What's special
Perched in one of the most desirable spots within Sandcastles by the Sea, this fully renovated three-level townhome combines fresh, modern interiors with the relaxed rhythm of beachside living. With views of the gulf glimmering just beyond the treetops and a premier location in the easternmost block, this corner unit places you steps from the sugar-white sand and moments from the energy of Blue Mountain Beach. The second level is devoted entirely to open-concept living, with a bright, welcoming space that flows from the sitting area to the formal dining zone and out to a spacious balcony—ideal for alfresco dinners and sunset toasts. The kitchen is a showpiece of the remodel, with new cabinetry, stainless appliances, and a quartz island made for morning coffee or cocktail hour. Sturdy ceiling beams lend subtle architectural character, while wood-plank floors keep the coastal vibe grounded.
Upstairs, a family bunk room and an airy primary suite offer private sanctuaries, each with its own bathroom, thanks to a recent addition. The master bedroom boasts shiplap walls, direct balcony access, and elevated gulf views, promising a serene start to every day. A sliding barn door conceals the laundry area with casual charm, completing the top-floor layout.
Down below, you'll find thoughtful additions, including a hot-and-cold outdoor shower, motion-activated solar lighting, a spacious storage area for all your beach gear, andperhaps most enviablefour covered parking spots beneath the home. The community pool and beach access are just a short walk away, along with boutique shops, cafes, and beloved local eateries. Paddleboard Big Redfish Lake, grab a cone from Blue Mountain Creamery, or bike the famed Timpoochee Trailit's all right outside your door.
Whether you're searching for a turnkey vacation rental or a personal coastal escape, this low-maintenance, high-style retreat makes an effortless investment in beach living.
