Property Description
Nestled on a double lot just across from the Intracoastal Waterway, there lies a cottage that seems plucked straight from the pages of a fairy tale. This charming abode offers the best of both worlds: a country retreat feel with the allure of coastal living right at its doorstep. Make this home truly unique by purchasing the vacant lot behind the home to create just under a half acre of privacy on the corner of Yacht and 8th Street.
A Magical Setting
As you approach the cottage, you're immediately struck by the canopy of ancient Live Oak trees that drape over the property. Their branches create a natural archway that leads you into what feels like another world. The dappled sunlight filtering through the leaves casts enchanting shadows across the lawn, adding to the magical atmosphere.
Coastal Charm Meets Country Comfort
The cottage itself is a vision of storybook perfection. Its wrap-around porch invites you to pause and breathe in the salt-tinged air. Rocking chairs and a porch swing beckon, offering the perfect spot to watch boats glide by on the Intracoastal Waterway.
Step inside, and you're transported to a cozy country retreat. The interior exudes warmth and love and is designed to perfection with touches that harken back to simpler times. The bright and open living area is offered with the furnishings including the kitchen housewares making for the simplest of move ins.
A Tale of Two Worlds
What makes this cottage truly special is its ability to offer two distinct experiences. Inside, surrounded by the comforts of a country home, you might forget you're near the coast at all. The kitchen, with its nods to the Pioneer Woman herself, large bedrooms fit for full time living, the large floored attic space spans the length of the home can be finished easily.
But step out onto the porch, and the coastal world unveils itself. The sound of boats on the Intracoastal, the waves from friendly neighbors riding by on their golf carts, and escaping to the sandy shores of Long Beach a mile away whenever your heart desire.
The half-acre of land surrounding the cottage is a haven for both relaxation and privacy. Bird watching, gardening, wood working, or simply soaking in the hot tub. Create the home that brings your heart peace and joy on this expansive property.
As night falls, the magic only intensifies. The porch becomes the perfect stargazing spot, while the gentle lapping of water from the Intracoastal Waterway provides a soothing lullaby.
A Fairy Tale Come to Life
This enchanted coastal cottage offers more than just accommodation; it provides an experience. It's a place where fairy tales feel real, where the lines between seaside escape and country retreat blur into something uniquely captivating. Whether you're seeking inspiration, relaxation, or simply a break from the ordinary, this magical abode promises to transport you to a world where every moment feels touched by wonder.
