10 Steps to the Gulf Beachfront, Dog-Friendly Home with 2 Decks, AC, WiFi & W&D

Summary:

Beach, Love & Happiness



The Space:

You can't get much closer to the Gulf of America than Beach, Love & Happiness - a spacious, beachfront escape on the white-sand shores of Dauphin Island. At just 10 steps from the cool gulf waters, this four-bedroom home will give you a vacation you won't soon forget.



Well-equipped for a beach-going family, this elevated home features wonderful spaces to gather both inside and out. Come up from a morning spent beach-combing, swimming, or stand-up paddleboarding to enjoy two levels of gulf-front decking that run the length of the house. The air-conditioned interior has plentiful windows that frame views of the gulf, and a layout that brings together the kitchen, the dining room, and the living room in one social space. The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances (including a dishwasher) and seating for 8 at the adjacent table.



Additional amenities include a washer/dryer to take care of your swimsuits and towels each day, free WiFi throughout the house, cable TV, and a picnic table outside on the deck - the perfect spot for morning crosswords, post-beach lunches, and evening cocktails at sunset.
