You will find yourself at the WaterColor Beach Club or in Seaside within minutes. With a walking/biking path near that brings you right to the heart of Seaside, this unique location is definitely a plus during your stay!
You have a warm feeling when you enter the house; this home was beautifully decorated by Don Connelly of Houston.
Upon entering, you will be captivated by the soothing decor and find a spacious, open living/dining concept featuring shiplap walls and painted wooden beams. The living room is surrounded by french doors that provide lots of natural light and open to a wrap around deck and oversized bed porch swing. The living area has plenty of space for the whole family to relax after a long day at the beach. There is a large dining table that seats 8 comfortably. The kitchen is complete with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Also, on the first floor is a powder room, and one guest bedroom with two double beds. The private bathroom has a large river rock walk-in shower. There are also french doors for easy outdoor access if you choose & a flat screen TV.
Upstairs, you will find three large bedrooms all with en suite bathrooms and each with their own flat screen TV. The master bedroom has a king bed with a large custom headboard. The master bath has a double vanity with a tub/shower combo. French doors open to its own private deck with rocking chairs. The two guest bedrooms have queen beds, both with private bathrooms and walk-in glass showers. One bedroom has a cozy sitting area with a sofa and the other has French doors leading out to its own private balcony. The bedrooms are very comfortable and beautiful, and are outfitted with high end bedding. The home has custom hardwood floors throughout.
In addition to the main house, there is a very spacious carriage house to be used as a hang out for teens, or those who want additional living. With its own private access, it features an open concept with a king size bed, full kitchen, dining table, and sitting area with a TV console. There is also a full bathroom as well as a stackable washer and dryer. For your convenience, the house has an outdoor shower for rinsing off your sandy feet or your things after a day at the beach.

Why they chose this property
This is our Happy Place!!! From the first time we visited WC, we fell in love with it's the tranquil beauty. Having the beautiful white sandy beaches in the front of Watercolor and the photographic scenery of the lake and its landscape in the middle makes Watercolor such a special place. The house is beautiful inside and out, so comfy & in the perfect location. It's full of some of our best memories!! We
welcome you and your family to borrow our home, experience Watercolor and make some of your own favorite memories too!!

What makes this property unique
The location of the house is one of the top reasons to stay here~it's one of the main reasons we purchased the home. Not only is it located in the front of the resort, Phase 1, so it's literally a few blocks from the beach, but it sits on one of the largest lots, on a corner, so the openness of the lot and the convenience of the house to everything; both the beach/Watercolor Beach Club & Seaside (there is a main cut thru to Seaside adjacent to the house), Marina Park, and Western Lake~ Also, the
biking/walking trails are just across the street, all which make it truly a unique location! The full size bed swing on the far end of front porch is also a favorite :)
