Say YES to the address! Abundant, direct oceanfront views from this newer, three story coastal cottage. Turnkey and practically brand new as its hardly been lived in. Just a few blocks south of Flagler Pier, the heart of Flagler Fun with restaurants, shops, and galleries. Bicycles and golf carts are a must have. Surfboards as well. You can catch a wave or just dip your toes in the ocean right out your front door! Watch the whales, dolphins, and the sunrise from many ocean facing windows and balconies and the sunsets in the evening from the back balconies or lookout room. This solidly constructed home was built with forever in mind. It can be a five bedroom home easily. Hurricane doors and windows keep the home very quiet and safe. There are numerous concrete piers wrapped in steel for a solid foundation, block, Hardi Plank, and stucco exterior, and 2018, rust proof, metal roof with fold down wraps to weather the elements. On the first floor are 2 bedrooms, a den that can be a third bedroom, a full bath, a large laundry room, a two car oversized garage, and ample storage space under the stairs. A closet by the garage has been built in the plan for a future elevator should someone need that feature. An open staircase with wood steps leads to a mid floor entryway, another covered porch overtop a nicely sized outdoor storage space, and to the main level opening to a large living area, beautifully tiled in every area with ten foot ceilings and incredible unobstructed oceanfront views. Plenty of balcony space off the dining and living areas to truly embrace beach life. A significant pantry off the kitchen doubles as the space where an elevator shaft would be if needed. The living room offers plenty of room for company, a lighted tray ceiling with Florida Cypress, and flows into a gorgeous kitchen with raised breakfast bar and dining area. All stainless appliances with a chilled beverage chest, granite counters, cabinetry with glass doors and custom drawer storage racks plus beautiful lighting fixtures. A half bath is located off the living room. A private owners suite with its own balcony, walk in closet, plantation shutters, tray ceiling, and jetted tub to relax in after a day at the beach or a stand alone jetted shower also on the main level. Finally, there is the top floor, aptly named the Tower or Lookout Room as it holds a cozy space set up as a bedroom that is just perfect for whale watching while surrounded by the sun and sea or sleeping under the stars. Electric blinds make it an easy transition for privacy. The outside of the home is easily maintained with the landscape design, pavers, pebbles, and plants that are native to the beach. A large fire pit in the back makes a great place to grill out or roast marshmallows. There is room for a few cars and even a small pool or hot tub if desired. The front yard has a fun spot for a sandbox, koi pond, or garden. In this dog friendly Flagler Beach town,this fully fenced in yard is key. Its a breeze to take Fido down to the ocean for a swim and have him rinse off the salt and sand in the outdoor shower by the laundry room every morning and evening! The house has two zone air conditioning, New as well and a generator can be plugged into the added amp box in the garage, the whole house reverse osmosis water filter and softener, sprinkler system tied to city water, usable by uncapping and turning on, a termite bond in place and NOT in a flood zone.
