Description

Substantially remodeled since 2020 with the creation of a legal ADU, this beachy single-level offers major flexibility with two livable structures on one generous 6,000 SF lot! Well-located further down the 100-block & a straight shot down to locals’ favorite T-Street beach, this home is elevated enough to capture ocean views from the main living space. The main house offers 2 spacious bedrooms + an office, two remodeled bathrooms (with interior laundry), & a newly-opened great room. The remodeled kitchen & living room share one large open space. Several new windows were added to create an open, airy feel with an abundance of natural light. Warmed by a gas fireplace & finished throughout with Oak wood flooring & crisp white paint, this home evokes a beachy lifestyle. Thoughtfully built-out as a legal second unit, the ADU mirrors the charm & updates of the main house. Offering a full kitchen, comfortable living area, one bedroom & bath, its own separate laundry, & mini split A/C-an awesome guest house, office, kids’ zone, or legal rental! (similar units have leased for $3,000+) Finished with shiplap detailing, vaulted rustic-beamed ceilings, stainless appliances, poured-in-place concrete bar top with garage-window that opens to its own private patio, it's dialed! Other newer improvements & values include: new roof on the main house & ADU, new water heater in ADU, newer mini split system, new hardie exterior siding (front elevation), refreshed landscaping with new irrigation, updated privacy fencing, in-ground trampoline, 250 SF +/- storage room off ADU (bikes, boards, tools, beach gear, etc.), & a large Tuff Shed (10’x12’) for additional storage. A covered side stoop with hot/cold water hook-ups adds opportunity for an outdoor shower or optionality for a potential addition. A short walk (minutes) to local’s favorite & very sandy T-Street beach at the bottom of this beautifully tree-lined street at Esplanade (historic horse path). Conveniently-located with easy walkability to nearby cafes, new restaurants (Buona Forchetta), dangerously close to popular Lucky Dog Gelato & quickly walkable to grab groceries. Play volleyball at the public beach courts nearby, take the 2.5 mile beach trail to newer restaurants, cafes, bars, San Clemente Pier & beyond. Consistent surf at T-Street or a quick & fun bike ride to world-class waves at Trestles. This is an opportunity to make locals' favorite T-Street beach your backyard at this quintessential Southwest SC beach house!

Christmas time is a special time in the city that is well decorated. Summer time outdoor concerts and activities are second to none. Plenty of great shopping and restaurants. Del Mar is downtown full of great restaurants and unique shops. Music at ivy Lee's with new Orleans cuisine but start at the Cellars on del Mar for great wine, cheese and music. Beaches are well maintained, safe and there's even an historic pier. Great vibe and creative energy. A new Brazilian crepe place just opened up on del Mar. Amazing Brazilian coffee. Tapioca crepes are outstanding. San onofre with old mans surfing beach with firepits on the beach is a must for all. "
