Combining laid-back living with the best gulf views, this Seaside, Florida, cottage has the rare luxury of off-street parking on the rear private driveway. Sitting behind a white picket fence on a generous lot, this attractive home has a beautiful carriage house as well as a new roof and newly painted siding. Step inside and admire the light interior decor, cozy fireplace and lofty ceiling adding a sense of airy spaciousness to the open living room. Wood flooring continues into the dining area and kitchen, which is fully equipped for preparing family meals. Two bedrooms and a shared bath are also on this level. Head upstairs to find two additional bedrooms, two baths (one with a whirlpool tub) and a second living area, allowing families to spread out and enjoy their own space. Sparkling gulf views from the open-air deck make this the perfect space for gathering for sunset drinks with family and friends. The outdoor space is equally conducive to alfresco dining and relaxing in the rear yard. The separate carriage house provides beautiful accommodation for independent family members with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living and dining space. Just steps from beach access, the home also has access to a community pool, tennis and a shady gazebo. The proximity to Seaside is a real bonus for shopping, dining and live entertainment in this popular social hub. Ideal as a family vacation home, this well-located cottage has potential rental earnings of $80,000.
