Impeccably maintained and never used as a rental, this home showcases thoughtful upgrades throughout, with an open and inviting floor plan ideal for gatherings or quiet relaxation. It comes tastefully furnished, allowing for a seamless move-in or turnkey beach getaway experience.
The spacious layout features five generously sized bedrooms and four full bathrooms, offering plenty of room for family and guests.
