I chose this house because of the location to the beach. To be able to walk to the beach is such a pleasure. Many years ago, we owned a house in East Hampton but the traffic to the house left us needing a vacation from our weekend home! Plus we had to DRIVE to the beach. Loading up the kids with all of the beach umbrellas, pails, shovels, chairs, cooler, drinks etc made it more of a schlep than fun.
Now we can just stroll back and forth when ever we want. :)
