This is the place for your family!
Just 3 houses back from the Atlantic Ocean on a private, guarded beach! No public allowed, ever! Beach passes are required!
Wonderful, large, vintage, family beach house that sleeps 10 max in beds with 2 l/2+ baths plus our enclosed outside shower. Enjoy our large east-facing deck with lots of lounge chairs & flowering planters. Deck is toddler friendly & steps can be closed off with 2 baby gates (not provided). Relax or have a meal on the quaint screened in rear porch that overlooks our landscaped yard with sandy play area. Enjoy living room comfort in overstuffed chairs, couch & cable TV. Dinner seating is 6-9 at DR table plus 4 more at large cafe table (plus 4-6 in screened porch).
Our Master Bedroom has a Queen Bed, Bath, and sliding glass doors to a private lanai deck with chairs & tropical flowers. The first floor also contains a bedroom with 1 set of comfy bunk beds & small TV & large, sunny window. Compact, fully equipped galley kitchen with stack washer & dryer.
Vaulted cathedral ceilings on east side with ceiling to floor windows let the beautiful sun shine in. 3 ceiling fans circulate the ocean breezes. Air conditioned with wall mounted units. Triple sliding glass doors off large dining area connect to the screened-in porch with chairs & table.
Enclosed outside shower next to porch & deck. Big, landscaped backyard with good size sandy play area for children & you can watch them from the porch or camp out with a lounger in the sand too! Charcoal Weber grill in rear yard.
A compact circular stairway leads upstairs to the sleeping loft with a King & Single bed. There is a full bathroom in the upper hall. Also a large bedroom with vaulted ceiling, ceiling fan, TV, & large window, skylight with Double Bed & Single Bed.
Our drive can accommodate 4 (full size) or 6 (mid-size/small cars). There is no public street parking permitted in our neighborhood due to our private oceanfront beach.
Just 250 feet from our driveway is the dune crossing to the very wide PRIVATE BEACH with lifeguards & the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. The beach house is the fourth one back from the ocean front. This makes it very easy & convenient to walk to & from the beach with small children, beach gear, for bathroom breaks, lunch & snacks etc. Because of gated security, children roam back & forth from beach to house on their own safely.
Unlike Bethay Beach Boardwalk area, our beach is never crowded since no one except owners & their guests are allowed. You will be given special beach passes to indicate you are our guests. No pets permitted on beach or in house!
From our surf you can wade & swim, ride waves, ocean kayak, body surf and even surf fish when the lifeguards are off duty! There is no better way to spend a relaxing day with the family. There are plenty of other children & families to interact with nearby.
Or, take a beach walk 1 mile North to Bethany Boardwalk & Towne Center, or, 1 mile South the Fenwick Island State Park (where you can surf fish 24 hrs a day!) Your best bet is to place your chair near the water with a beverage & RELAX! YOU'RE AT THE BEACH!!!
