    What's special

    Set behind a white picket fence, this coveted Nantucket-style beach cottage is currently the lowest-priced home in WaterSound Beach. Close to extensive amenities and the private beach that WaterSound is known for, this charming home conveys with high-end furniture, a golf cart, and kayaks. Sitting on a generous lot, there's a detached garage and ample space to add a private pool. The front porch is perfect for relaxing or reading on the custom porch swing. Step inside to find a cozy sitting room with new hardwood flooring, soaring ceilings and white wainscoting surrounding a cozy brick fireplace. Multiple windows showcase pretty garden views. The dining area flows directly into the kitchen with a breakfast bar providing additional seating when entertaining. The well-appointed kitchen has a new refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and a wine/beverage refrigerator for serving perfectly chilled drinks. A laundry and office area with built-in cabinets maximize the additional space. Alfresco dining can be enjoyed on the adjoining screened porch or beneath the arbor on the side deck. This pristine home boasts multiple updates and repairs, totaling more than $100,000. These include a new tankless water heater, replacement HVAC with a programmable thermostat, monitored fire/smoke detectors, and Ring doorbells for security. Quartz countertops have been added to the kitchen and bathrooms, with new faucets and paint. The former water heater closet has been converted into a useful pantry with a lock-off. This cute-as-a-button cottage has a spacious primary suite with an ensuite bathroom on the first floor. Stairs lead up to two guest bedrooms tucked beneath the eaves. As well as the one-car garage, this newly painted home has multiple storage closets making it ideal as a second home or vacation rental in this sought-after community. Onsite amenities include a mile of beach, boardwalks, community pools, The Dunesider Grill, and a fitness center. The stunning white sandy beach and emerald gulf waters are just a short stroll from the door.
