When you enter the house you will feel that you have come home to your own beach cottage. Used only half the year as a rental and the rest as a residence, it has owner-level furnishings and décor. You'll see granite countertops in the roomy and well-equipped kitchen, Noritake china, Thomasville furniture, linen, appliances, electronics and many other amenities throughout the house that are unusual in rental property.

The Gulf-side beach has been replenished by a multi-million dollar project and is as wide and beautiful as it has ever been, which is spectacular. The snowy-white sand and turquoise-emerald water are world-famous.

Views of the Gulf or the Sound are available from every room in the house and the three decks/porches. In the house, you may particularly appreciate the master bedroom that is over 17 by 18 feet and has a large walk-in closet. The master bath has double sinks and Jacuzzi tub/shower. Being on the third floor you'll enjoy the porch's view of the rest of the Village and boating traffic on the Sound.

The other bedrooms are on the second level of the house, and have a queen in one and full-sized bed in the other. The full bath on that floor is between them.

All levels of the house have nine-foot ceilings.

The double garage has one side that is particularly deep, enough for two cars on one side and one on the other. Electronic openers are provided.

This is a small-pet-friendly, low-allergenic house with porcelain tile and hardwoods throughout, except for some stairs which are carpet.

The magic of this place is that it's quiet and separated from the mainland, but close enough to whatever shopping, dining, and entertainment that you would desire.
