Absolutely charming and beautifully upgraded single-story home just 1.7 miles from the beach--so close you can feel the cool ocean breezes and enjoy that vacation feeling all year long! This home showcases an extra-large front lawn enclosed with a white vinyl fence for safe play, plus a welcoming front porch that sets the tone for what's inside. Step through the door and prepare to be wowed by the modern luxury upgrades that have transformed this home, including walls opened to create a spacious open-concept great room with cathedral ceilings, recessed lighting, dual pane windows, plantation shutters, and elegant travertine-style tile flooring with decorative inlay. A granite breakfast counter connects the remodeled chef's kitchen to the living room for effortless entertaining, while the adjoining dining area flows seamlessly between both spaces. The kitchen is a showpiece with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and rich dark wood custom cabinetry featuring a lazy susan, spice cupboards, hidden trash cupboard, glass display panels, and a built-in microwave niche. Beveled-edge sliding glass doors open to the wrap-around backyard with covered patio, garden areas, lush lawn, block wall fencing, and an extra-wide paver side yard with RV potential. Additional upgrades include central A/C, all-new PEX re-piping in 2025 (transferable warranty), all-new electrical and panel in 2012, new roof in 2018, high baseboards, some raised-panel doors, and remodeled bathrooms. The hall bath features a custom vanity with granite countertop and a jetted tub/shower combo with designer tile surround and frameless glass enclosure. The spacious primary suite offers wood laminate flooring, a large walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, while the two additional bedrooms include another with its own walk-in closet. Ideally located just steps to the bike trail to the beach and close to award-winning schools (Eader, Sowers, Edison) this home truly embodies the perfect blend of coastal charm, modern comfort, and timeless style. You'll fall in love the moment you step inside!
