Nestled by the waterfront and just a stroll away from the ocean, marinas, top-notch amenities, and dining experiences, this stunning retreat home offers a perfect blend of year-round tranquility and exceptional income potential! Originally designed as a single-family home, the main house has been artfully reconfigured to maximize success as an Airbnb. Additionally, the rear part of the property has been set up for year-round rental opportunities. Recently revitalized, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom home is a testament to coastal charm, boasting updated interiors and an energy-efficient furnace that ensures year-round comfort while promoting sustainability. The presence of two full eat-in kitchens caters perfectly to guests and/or long-term residents. You'll be pleased to know that the home will come fully furnished, eliminating the hassle of moving in, and can be easily returned to a single-family home. Imagine unwinding on your private deck after a day by the harbor - the perfect way to relax and recharge. As a bonus, a garage with an attached open floor plan loft area currently functions as an art studio all year round. It also holds exciting potential to be transformed into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), offering additional flexibility and utility.
