Overview

Description

Imagine waking up to the salt air and being just a two-block stroll away from the sandy shores of Ideal Beach. This charming coastal cottage offers the perfect blend of relaxed shore living and modern convenience. Whether you're looking for a peaceful year-round residence or a stylish weekend escape, this 2-bedroom home delivers. Inside, the heart of the home is an updated kitchen featuring sleek granite counters and stainless steel appliances--perfect for whipping up a post-beach dinner. But the real magic happens outdoors. Step through the back door to find your own private sanctuary: a fenced-in yard anchored by a durable Trex deck and elegant pavers. After a day in the surf, there's nothing quite like a soak in the newer hot tub under the stars. For those who need to commute,

Supplements: the location is unbeatable. You're minutes away from the ferry, bus, GSP and train. Pack your bags and get ready to enjoy the beach lifestyle you've been dreaming of.
