With a manageable 2,409 s.f. of livingspace, the main house offers unbroken ocean views from nearly all rooms, including the kitchen, dining room and fireplaced living room. Renovated and redesigned the house has three bedrooms and two full baths. Outside, landscaped gardens and a view of the rocky coastline assure full enjoyment of the seaside setting. A detached 2-car garage with studio above, along with a wonderful tram that carries you directly to the home’s entrance complete the offering.
