INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY for short or long term rental - An eclectic coastal setting with beautiful ocean views! Designed with laid-back island flavor, this unique 5BR/3BA home features an abundance of living spaces and an ocean view deck to use as you'd like. Call it home, mix in a vacation rental or both – this versatile floorplan lends itself to a variety of possible uses. Beautiful mahogany doors welcome you in and a mix of decorative wood and tile in the foyer are an art of their own! Slate tile walls and teak stairs beckon you upstairs where living, dining and kitchen come together as one. It's a generous size room with vaulted ceilings, great natural light and plenty of gathering areas for friends and family. The kitchen offers cool lines, stainless appliances and backsplash, a gas range, lots of cabinets and counter space for prep, and there's a pantry closet with artsy swinging doors to store the rest. The tile floors make clean up a breeze and a wood burning fireplace in the main living room keeps things cozy when cooler weather comes back around. A series of doors open to a 16'x25' enclosed porch with deck-like floors giving a very Costa Rician/California like vibe. It's a great space to relax or entertain and it spills out to the 13'x16' sun deck where coffee, cocktails, sea breezes and sounds of the ocean will be enjoyed. Back inside if you must, the master suite offers a nice size bedroom with tray ceiling and a sitting area. The ornate master bath is trimmed with teak and purplewood details, a double vanity with vessel sinks, a custom soaking tub, tiled shower with rain shower head, and two walk in closets. The rest of the bedrooms live downstairs here so there's plenty of privacy and flexibility for everyone. Two traditional bedrooms, one (non-conforming) bedroom/flex room with a private entry, two full baths, and another bedroom with kitchenette and a private entry. Location is key and this home is situated three off the ocean with a large lot running street to street and a public beach access at the end of the block...see you there!
