Arrived and immediately noticed the AC did not work. Dune Allen realty quickly sent a repair man. Had to replace major parts, took almost 4 hrs to fix and replace. The floors in living room had floor joists sticking up in many places. The linoleum floor had folds, humps and places that were wadded up like a blanket. Even our kids immediately noticed the condition of many things. Broken shelves in refrigerator, ice machine would sporatically quit working.
There were pictures on the site that showed photos from 1995 that showed all the interior decor was the exact same as today. Dozens of places in the house had places where paint and sheetrock were missing or flaked away. The interior needed to be painted 10yrs ago. The deck outside had a great view but was in serious need of repair. Screws stuck out multiple places, rails were loose, front staircase on ocean side leaned and did not appear very safe. Not even sure it would pass a code inspection. It was probably great 20 yrs ago, but the disrepair was very noticeable, and a hazard for 4 children walking around and barefooted. If u rent this house be sure to bring chairs for ocean side porch. The table on front porch was falling apart. We really feel the pictures dont depict the true nature of the disrepair of this house. It was probably a great location 25 yrs ago, but not much has been done to take care of it since then. We love santa rosa beach, come here at least 2x a year. Especially Dune Allen area. Just feel especially for the price, Greenwave needs some serious TLC. On a positive note, Dune Allen Realty was quick to assist us in fixing the AC. They were very friendly and helpful.
Without some exterior and interior work, I would not reccommend this house. There are many on Dune Allen Beach that were in alot better shape.
