Extensively renovated and professionally designed, the residence spans approximately 6,000 square feet combining lasting quality with refined coastal style. Designed for both luxury living and exceptional rental performance, the home comfortably accommodates large groups with seven private suites and two expansive bunk rooms thoughtfully integrated into a highly functional floor plan.

The chef's kitchen is equipped with premium appliances, custom cabinetry, a large center island, and walk-in pantry, designed to accommodate both everyday living and large-scale entertaining. Two additional guest suites with private baths complete this floor, along with convenient access to the outdoor living areas below.
