Nestled just five houses from the ocean, this incredible 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath custom-built pool home offers over 2,400 sq ft of living space. Designed with both relaxation and entertainment in mind, it boasts formal living, dining, and family rooms, creating an ideal setting for gatherings. A charming covered breezeway connects to the versatile fourth bedroom, offering ultimate privacy—perfect for a workshop, office, exercise room, craft space, or even a teen hangout or man cave. The home sits on a 1/3-acre lot with ocean-to-river access, and its fully fenced yard includes a parking pad for your boat or RV.
Step outside and discover your private oasis, with an oversized pool, a gazebo, a firepit, and ample space for outdoor fun. The coral wall, hand-built by the original owner, features a hidden room—a whimsical clubhouse or secret hideaway for the kids. Open sliders reveal the sprawling backyard and pool area, where you can enjoy cool ocean breezes under the breezeway while watching the game. This updated home, only the second ever owned, is perfectly located with semi-private beach access just at the end of the street, plus easy access to Gemini Elementary, Flutie Field, shopping, and more. Whether you're seeking a family home or a fantastic Airbnb opportunity, this property offers endless potential and charm.
