Amazing location, just across from Corcoran Lagoon & very short walk to the beach! Beautiful custom home w/ fantastic woodwork! You will absolutely LOVE the Living Room w/ its beautiful brick fireplace & hearth, extra large windows w/ ocean peaks, & vaulted wood beam ceilings giving this beach home the feel of a Tahoe cabin! It is sure to be the favorite gathering place for friends & family. The kitchen & dining areas are light & bright w/ direct access to the expansive yard, making Al Fresco dining a breeze. The Primary Bedroom Suite is very spacious w/ a large walk-in closet & full En Suite. Additionally there is a well-sized guest bedroom & full guest bath. The 2-car garage has a built-in office area, that can easily be converted back if desired. The backyard has beautiful paver hardscaping, perfect for summertime entertaining, which extends to the front creating a great driveway for vehicles/RV/boats. There is also an AWESOME workshop w/ a woodburning stove, full bathroom AND upper game room! Want to practice your golf skills? Well you are in luck because there is also an adorable putting green AND plenty of space for a garden, too! With no backyard neighbors & easy to maintain landscaping, this home is a MUST SEE w/ so much charm & character and so close to everything!
