Complete with a custom built-in bar, half bath, front and rear garage doors creating exceptional cross breezes, and plenty of room for games, gatherings, and beach-day overflow, this level was designed with entertaining in mind. Outside, the fenced backyard includes a hot/cold outdoor shower and an oversized 10x20 storage shed ideal for storing beach gear. The exterior blends classic coastal style with practical durability, featuring cedar-pressed vinyl shake siding, vinyl railings, hurricane shutters, multiple covered and uncovered decks, and generous parking space.
