The additional two bedrooms share access to a hall bath beside the laundry closet.

A short walk along SE 59th Street at the back of the complex provides a fast and easy path to the beach. Because this public access point does not have any parking spaces, it is relatively secluded. To the east, you’ll find one of the most private sections of East Beach thanks to a numerous block stretch of undeveloped scrubland along the dune-line and public access points with limited parking spaces.

In the evenings, walk to eateries like local favorite Thai and Vine, beach stores, an arcade, candy store, ice cream stores and more. And if you'd rather craft the ideal appetizers and beverage to savor on the beach yourself, Food Lion and the ABC Store are each less than a half mile away. This beautiful location really does provide the best of both worlds!
