DESCRIPTION

Serenity is our latest luxury listing - Serenity is being designed by Louis Shaw (owner/designer of STYLE Vacation Homes by Louis Shaw) Louis has worked with keeping the unique character of the home. The original owner left the current owner some very nice original pieces from the 70's. Louis found these pieces to speak to an era in design that showed imagination and sophistication to the current taste of many travelers.

Enjoy ocean views from the first floor living area. Here you will find a comfortable seating area for 7. The room consists of (1) sofa (Italian sleeper no bars) (1) Leather Easy Recliner, 2 additional arm chairs. TV. Living room opens to the dining area and a 3 season sunroom. The 3 season sunroom is equipped with screens and sliding glass panels that offer spectacular ocean breezes even on the hottest of days. The ceiling fan helps with circulating the cool ocean breezes. There is a new coastal casual driftwood dining table that seats 8-9 (if you have little ones sitting on the bench). You can gain access to the outdoor shower through the spring door located on the South corner. To keep it tidy, please use the outdoor hose by the garage or the outdoor shower located on the back of the house facing the ocean side.

Kitchen - The kitchen at Serenity is currently in the process of being completely remodeled and everything will be brand new. The renderings are included in the photos of the property. It is of great size with plenty of cabinets and counter space. The spacious design allows for multiple chefs to create their dishes at the same time.

Enjoy cooking or mingling in the kitchen while taking in the ocean views. The views are simply breathtaking to view over the tranquil dunes. You'll find all your cooking and entertaining needs are provided for your use. (see amenities list for details) Dishwasher and garbage disposal is part of the kitchen function.

The back of the kitchen offers large doors that open to your mud sink, and trash storage. It is in this area that you will also find the large commercial capacity Maytag washer and dryer.

Top floor The home has two living areas. Take the open staircase to the top level where you will find a great room with a seating area that offers amazing full ocean views. This space is a fantastic place to gather for a social event or watching a movie on the 65" smart TV (sorry no cable, bring your Roku stick if you desire to watch TV programs) The seating area is currently being offered with a large sectional paired with occasional tables and ottoman. There are also 2 comfortable swivel, rocking chairs for added seating. In addition, we have included 2 smaller vintage ottomans that store nice under the 11' hand crafted, vintage floating console. This floor offers a slider that leads to the top deck.

The extra large king suite is also located on this level. There are stairs that lead to the roof deck where you can see for miles down the beach and take in spectacular bay side sunsets. We offer 4 chaises with side tables and a patio table. Don't worry about losing the views when sunbathing on the roof deck, you have full ocean views when lounging in the chaises!
