A Slice of Haven is designed for easygoing days and memorable nights, where every space invites you to relax and enjoy. Inside, darkwood flooring guides you through the open and airy layout, blending warm comfort with a breezy coastal feel. The living area is made for unwinding - Sink into the plush sectional for a laid-back movie night, curl up with a book after a day in the sun, or settle in for a quiet morning read before heading out to explore.
Just beyond, the dining table is ready for everything from pancake breakfasts to late-night card games, while the bright, fully equipped kitchen makes mealtime a breeze. With sleek stainless steel appliances, plenty of counter space, and a well-stocked setup, you can whip up a quick bite before hitting the beach or settle in for a leisurely home-cooked dinner.
Two main-floor bedrooms, each with their own distinct charm, offer a restful retreat, along with a full bath for convenience. Up the circular staircase, a private sanctuary awaits—an upper-level suite featuring a queen bedroom, walk-in closet, and full bath. Step onto the secluded balcony, a peaceful perch overlooking the backyard, where mornings start with the rustle of leaves and evenings end with the soft hum of summer nights.
Summer cookouts, evenings by the firepit, and twilight cocktails under the bistro lights - Out back, the shaded retreat of the backyard invites you to settle in and enjoy. Fire up the grill on the spacious deck, where an outdoor table is ready for everything from quick bites to leisurely al fresco dinners. As the evening cools, step down to the stone patio, where the warmth of the gas firepit draws everyone in - perfect for toasting marshmallows, sharing stories, or simply kicking back with a drink in the crisp night air.
