I had originally seen this house last year when it was under renovation and I basically had to trust in Marilyn's vision of what she wanted to do with the house. I saw there was great potential for this property. So, a lot of my expectations were left to my own imagination and Marilyn's outline. The house did not disappoint. There is a lot of "new" in this house ranging from flooring, appliances, etc to the islands outside with wine cooler, refrigerator, ice maker and you have to see the outdoor shower. The outdoor shower should be inside, it's all that.
The bedrooms are all spacious. You would think that a house with this many bedrooms, they would be undersized. This is not the case as by my count at least three of the bedroom could easily be converted into 2 bedrooms each. All have large flat screen tv's.
The kitchen and dining area can accommodate approximately 20 people. Yes everything about this place is big. The basement is large enough to house ping pong, pool, air hockey, foos ball, and another two bedrooms. The living room area is quite expansive with an ornate ceiling fan and 60"tv.
Outside you have your heated pool and hot tub along with a deck off the kitchen and a wrap around deck overlooking the pool area. There are plenty of chaise lounges and chairs by the barbecue and island area right by the pool, and a covered area where you can sit and get the best breeze every day.
The proximity of this house was central to so many things such as shopping, bay beach, ocean beach, etc. You're never far from whatever you want to do. But in truth the house itself is sufficient enough entertainment that the only desire to leave is to replenish dwindling supplies of alcohol.
The team of Marilyn and her daughter Michelle couldn't be more accommodating. They were never intrusive but always made us feel they were a phone call or text away.
I would highly recommend this property. I have been at many properties up and down the east coast and obviously the weather is essential to having a good stay. Honestly, in this place, the weather is not as important as far as being make or break. That's why I would say it's the best house I've been in thus far.
