Looking for idyllic oceanside living? Look no further! This 3BR, 1.5BA home on picturesque West Island, boasts magnificent sunsets and beautiful water views from its living room and front porch, and offers over a half-acre of land—stretching from Balsam to Cottonwood. Featuring a large one-level layout with an open-concept living/dining area with vaulted ceilings, a den/sunroom, separate laundry room, and a kitchen with access to a screened-in porch overlooking an expansive backyard full of mature trees and flowering bushes. You’ll also find rear decks off the sunroom/den and the primary bedroom. Walk to the beach, hike the nearby conservation area, and in the summer months enjoy food, cocktails and live music at Off The Hook—at the island’s marina. Unfinished loft space over the two-car garage has so much potential—complete with a small balcony to step out on for a treetop view to the ocean. This wonderful West Island home is ready to be your sweet summer escape!
