A QUICK TOUR OF THE HOUSE

The Family Room (looking toward the Surfview Bedroom)...

...has a casual "beach" vibe that is accented by...

...the panoramic ocean view.



The deck adjoining the Family Room...

...is a great place to enjoy the beach without even leaving the house.

You can set the table on the deck for dining at the beach without the sand...

...or rearrange the deck chairs to watch the whales migrate

and the dolphins frolic in the surf.

Wake up in the Surfview Bedroom to the sound

of crashing waves and the smell of salt air.

The Surfview bedroom offers privacy and luxury.

 

The enormous "Sea Mist Bathroom" adjoining the Surfview Room has:



A luxurious bathtub for unwinding after a busy day at the beach

 



Dual sinks

A dressing table, built-in hampers, walk-in closet, and
