The second-story porch creates a true indoor/outdoor experience and is a favorite gathering spot that is uniquely special perfect for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine while watching children play on the lawn, neighbors walk their dogs, and the relaxed rhythm of Seaside.
The third floor includes the largest king bedroom with a walk-in closet and private double-vanity bathroom with its own washer and dryer, along with an additional bedroom and a full bathroom off the hallway that also serves the crow's nest level above.
