Description

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Nestled atop a scenic dune, this charming split-level home offers three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a bonus Florida room. Ideally located in close proximity to the World’s Most Famous Beach and the Halifax River, this lovingly maintained residence showcases timeless 1950s character. The unique split-level design provides an open and inviting floor plan, perfect for comfortable living and entertaining. The spacious formal living room creates a warm and welcoming gathering space, seamlessly flowing into the dining area and family room. The generous family room, offering versatility as a third bedroom, enhances the home’s flexibility. Adjacent to the kitchen, the Florida room overlooks a private backyard, providing a serene retreat for relaxation. The upper level features two well-appointed bedrooms. The primary suite easily accommodates a king-size bed and includes three closets, along with a private en-suite bath featuring a walk-in shower. The second bedroom boasts a walk-in closet and convenient access to a full bath with a tub and shower combination. Both bathrooms retain their original 1950s tile and fixtures, adding to the home’s classic appeal. Additional highlights include hurricane-rated windows throughout, new carpeting with hardwood flooring beneath, fresh interior paint, and an A/C system that is only two years old. The roof is 11 years old, and the sprinkler system adds convenience to the beautifully landscaped property. The private backyard is a tropical oasis featuring an array of fruit trees, including mangos, avocado, and starfruit. The expansive garage, despite its single-car entry, measures an impressive 15.8’ x 40.6’ and can accommodate up to two vehicles. Combining vintage charm with modern convenience, this home is a true coastal gem.
