Designed with a reverse floor plan to maximize natural light and coastal views, the upper level features an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area perfect for gathering family and friends after a day on the beach or boating on the sound. Multiple outdoor living spaces invite you to enjoy morning coffee, evening sunsets, and refreshing ocean breezes. The home offers 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a versatile ground-level flex space with a half bath that can serve as a guest retreat, game room, home office, or additional sleeping area.
