ABOUT THE HOUSE

This light-filled home is replete with the vibrant colors of the Gulf Coast. In the living room, kick back on a queen sleeper sofa with seashell-themed pillows. Two oversized armchairs offer additional lounging spots, and a 55" flat screen comes with DIRECTV.

Whip up tasty home-cooked meals in an oh-so-chic kitchen with its own 42” flat screen TV, quartz countertops, and an array of stainless steel appliances — including a gas range and roomy side-by-side refrigerator.

A breakfast bar has seating for two. Steps away, share meals around a glass top dining table, seating four.

Make the most of the sunny weather in your private backyard. There’s a gas grill, an outdoor shower, outdoor speakers, and an eight-person patio table. A bench also comes stocked with beach toys.

At the front of the house, there’s more seating on a shady front porch. From here, a spiral staircase leads to an upper-level deck with fantastic gulf views.

The home’s coastal theme continues in a tastefully furnished master bedroom. Slumber in a queen bed, set before a 48” wall-mounted TV. This room also has a large closet for guest storage.

The second bedroom offers a great space for the kids. Along with a full-over-full bunk bed and a large walk-in closet, this room comes with a 40" wall-mounted TV, DVD player and Xbox.

Both bedrooms share access to a beautiful guest bathroom with a dual marble vanity, and a tub/shower combination.
