ONE OF A KIND!!!! Charming Avenue Cottage just steps to the beach!!!! Feel the Ocean Breeze... This 5 bedroom 2 full bath, fully furnished home is bursting with coastal charm and classic features. One of the few remaining vintage beach cottages - built in 1939 but completely renovated to create an open floor plan & modern amenities. Walls & ceilings are original pecky cypress with characteristic knots and grooves. Floors are original hardwood pine. Exterior is stained cypress board, which resists mildew and insects and only infrequently needs painting/staining. Artful stone fireplace built from stone recovered while digging the local intracoastal waterway - porous stone chimney on roof could not be saved, so it was partially taken down & sealed off in the attic. The family room fireplace remains a focal point, but can not function for burning. The spacious living room flows seamlessly into a kitchen and dining area, perfect for entertaining and gathering with family and friends. This home has 5 bedrooms with beds for 12, including a bunk room with 2 bunk beds, plus 2 full baths providing you ample room for your guests as well as space for an office, workout room, or flex space to suit your needs! Outside you’ll find a large yard with shell stamped concrete patio and beautiful mature trees including nature magnolia, live oaks, sego palms & fruitful fig tree. String lights on the patio with gliders and tables for evening gatherings. Salvaged stadium seats from Cincinnati’s Cinergy baseball stadium and a picnic table provide ample seating. The hot and cold outdoor shower is perfect for rinsing off after a day at the beach! The backyard is also home to the detached 2 car garage. Garage holds 4 fat wheeled Mongoose bikes, a yellow couch (made from recycled plastic bottles) with wheels for beach going, boogie boards, skim boards, bocce, corn hole games, and beach chairs. A Vespa scooter is also available. This home is being sold fully furnished, so all this can be yours! This charming home has all the hallmarks of a traditional coastal cottage, just steps to the beach and located along the coveted golden mile. This could be your perfect home, you don’t want to miss this opportunity, schedule your showing today!
