The phenomenon of finding such an unexpected treasure is how you will feel about the four-bedroom/three- and one-half-bath MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE — the perfect place to embark on a journey of adventure, connection, and lazily drifting with the tide. You will immediately appreciate this immaculate beach cottage's convenient and thoughtful amenities as soon as you pull your car into the covered parking under the house. Here you’ll discover storage for your beach gear and an outdoor shower. Chaise lounges surrounding the private pool beckon you to settle in with a good book; that is until lunchtime calls and the charcoal grill and shaded picnic table become the main attraction. There’s also a brand new six-person hot tub for a soothing respite. Take a break from the sun on the first level, where a TV and game room featuring a foosball table are located just inside the front door. There are also three bedrooms on this level including a queen master with ensuite bath, plus an additional queen bedroom and a room with two single beds that share a jack-and-jill bathroom. A half-bath is located on the landing between the first and second levels. The home’s fourth bedroom, a queen master with ensuite bath, is on the second level. Here, too, is the great room where cozy surroundings bring everyone together for meals, game nights, and memory-making moments. A well-appointed kitchen provides appliances and ample counter space for meal preparation. Start your mornings with a freshly brewed cup of coffee at the breakfast bar or opt for family dining at the eight-seat banquet table. Sink into the comfortable seating in the great room, perfect for unwinding with a TV entertainment.
