This fully fenced 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers easy coastal living with vinyl plank flooring throughout and a welcoming living room accented by decorative ceiling panels. The eat-in kitchen provides a comfortable space for everyday meals and entertaining. The primary bedroom comfortably fits a queen-size bed and features a built-in headboard, while the centrally located full bath serves both bedrooms. A spacious laundry/utility room adds convenience, and a bright family room with vaulted ceilings and abundant windows offers flexible living space ideal for gatherings or relaxation. Recent updates include a newer roof and gutters, along with four Mitsubishi air/heat units for year-round comfort. A gas line is already in place for a potential fireplace. Energy-efficient features include an on-demand Navien hot water heater and a gas dryer. Outdoor living shines with a sunny front porch and a shaded rear porch—both with low-maintenance Trex decking—plus an outdoor shower for post-beach clean-up. This rare street-to-street property spans from Spruce Avenue to Warwick Road and includes a detached storage building/workshop with electric, perfect for beach gear, bikes, kayaks, paddleboards, or even a golf cart. Off-street parking accommodates up to four vehicles. Ideal as a year-round residence, coastal getaway, or investment property with weekly rental potential. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a slice of bayside living.
