Life feels different when the ocean is this close. This is more than a home - it’s a lifestyle. Just five blocks from the ocean, this move-in ready retreat offers the perfect blend of coastal charm and modern comfort. Picture this: grilling burgers or slow-smoked brisket next to your top-of-the-line gazebo enchantingly lit-up at night, a fresh mango margarita (or martini) in hand, and laughter around the massive wood-burning fireplace as ocean breezes roll in. With a private 7,700 sq.ft. lot, there’s space to entertain, relax, and even expand - add a custom pool, build an ADU, or create the backyard of your dreams. Inside, the open kitchen features granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a sleek modern hood over the stove - flowing seamlessly into the oversized dining room and out to the backyard, designed for effortless gatherings. Original hardwood floors, matching bamboo floors in the dining and master suite, and recessed lighting throughout bring both warmth and style. The extra large master retreat is 16’ x 16’, complete with ensuite bath and walk-in closet, while bedroom #2 is a generous 13’ x 13’. Central A/C is available, though with perpetual ocean breezes, you may rarely need it. Coastal comfort, entertaining made easy, and endless potential - all just a few minutes from the sand in year-round perfect weather!
