Could your own quaint coastal cottage be calling? Tucked along a quiet street and framed by established trees, this charming home offers the laid-back beach lifestyle you've been looking for, just minutes from the beach and conveniently located near the Swain's Cut Bridge. Inside, vaulted ceilings create an open, inviting living area, while freshly painted white kitchen cabinets, stainless appliances, newer LVP flooring, and a four-seat eat-at bar set the scene for casual meals and easy conversation. The primary bedroom features an ensuite bath, giving you a comfortable space to unwind and recharge. Looking for room to spread out and enjoy the outdoors? The large, vinyl-fenced backyard is ready for gatherings, pets, and play, with a firepit for winding down after a day at the beach. An outdoor shower makes rinsing off a breeze, while the storage buildings keep your beach and fishing gear close at hand. And what better way to start the day than with coffee on the cozy front porch? Could this be the coastal cottage you've been dreaming of?
