Big and Bright, Steps to Sand, Ocean Views, and Sleeps 8+

Home is located in the very desirable Sand Dollar Beach community; away from the bar scene. This is the perfect spot for families or a romantic getaway. You will be less than 200 paces to sand and surf down our paved and gently sloping community beach access footpath.

The home is a real gem; remodeled in 2018 and located just 6 houses from sand and surf. Beautiful high vaulted ceilings, magnificent giant fireplace and over 2,100 square feet of living space. You will love how bright and airy this home is; providing both large open spaces, as well as cozy nooks for private reading and relaxing.

The reverse floor-plan, provides views of the ocean from kitchen, family room and master bedroom. A second 'bonus' area located downstairs provides a great escape for the children or peaceful relaxation spot.

In addition, a spacious outdoor deck is a great place to relax, enjoy a fine meal at the outdoor dining table, take in the ocean view or simply enjoy the ocean's breeze.


The home is stocked with the latest amenities and kitchen necessities. This lovely home is very spacious, comfortably sleeps 9. (one king, one queen, two twins, one full futon, plus a single roll-a-way bed)
