Welcome to the Cherokee Big House: a historic 1943 beach cottage paired with a fully equipped 2005 guest house, already a proven rental favorite. Whether you're after a personal coastal retreat, steady income, or both, this property delivers. The 3BR/2BA main house radiates character with heart pine details, oak hardwoods, and a breezy open floor plan. Recent updates include a stylish kitchen, modern baths, and a newer metal roof + HVAC. Outside, enjoy a custom fireplace, fruit trees, covered porch, and space for a pool. The guest cottage, known as the Cherokee House, offers 2BR/1BA with a kitchenette, private entrance, has just been repainted, and has proven to be a popular long term rental. Extra perks: circular driveway, 2-car carport, X-flood zone, wooded buffer for privacy, and a location just a bike ride to the beach, shops, and dining. With neighborhood revitalization underway, this is both a slice of history and a smart investment.
