Under contract-accepting backup offers. For those drawn to the Gulf, there is something special about a Coastal Cottage. Those two words conjure images of you covered in sunshine, digging your toes in wet sand & the AHHHH of coastal breezes. Your dream can become reality when you move into this treasured Coastal Cottage in the Surfside neighborhood of Redington Shores. It's not just a dwelling. It has the power to charm all who enter with its abundant natural light & ample recessed lighting, open floor plan, original terrazzo floors, & more. The foyer is drenched in happy sunshine from its new front door & windows & can double as a cozy dining area. This 1,444 square foot, bright & cheerful home has 4 bedrooms & 2 full completely updated bathrooms. This is unique because so many of the original barrier island homes have only 2 bedrooms! The primary bedroom is the picture of serenity with room for your king-size bed, featuring a walk-in closet next to a completely updated full bath with a marble-tiled shower & floors plus a new vanity & faucet. New ceramic plank tile set in a herringbone pattern connects the primary bedroom, primary bathroom, & hallway. Plantation shutters in this wing of the cottage add beauty, privacy, & light. Bedrooms two & three have access to the second, recently remodeled full bath with marble-tiled shower & floors plus a new vanity & faucet. Bedroom three has a clear glass door that lets light in & offers access to the backyard. Bedroom four also has a clear glass door that leads to the back yard & is currently being used as a bedroom, but would be perfect as an office, nursery - even a podcasting studio? Getting back to the main living area, you can see that the kitchen opens to the living room, so the chef can join the conversation. The living room is spacious enough to easily accommodate a large sofa, love seat & coffee table. Sun shades offer complete privacy and diffuse glare without blocking the view. The kitchen is larger than the typical beach cottage kitchen, with an island for meal prep, sipping morning coffee, or setting out a buffet for guests. It also boasts plenty of recessed lighting, a new refrigerator, microwave & pendant lights. Did we talk about curb appeal? Check out the excellent feng shui of the new pavers that curve from the driveway to the front door & onto the patio. The (easily) retractable awning keeps you cool on the patio while waving to neighbors walking their dogs & getting their steps in. This is a very pet-& people-friendly neighborhood. Sun already set? No worries. This house has new exterior lighting so you can spend more time enjoying outdoor living. In 2009, the owners did more than add a standing seam metal roof. They raised the roof's pitch, which means improved durability, better lifespan, plus more insulation & ventilation, which leads to energy savings. The Surfside neighborhood is unique in that the original developer granted beachfront property to the residents. Today, the Surfside Beach Club features direct beach access, a picnic area, benches, & Gulf views. You can drive & park (no charge for Surfside Beach Club members), but you may choose to join your neighbors who walk to the beach every day. After a long day of sheer joy, spent barefoot on glistening sand, you come home with a pocket full of shells to drop in the large glass vase by the door. This is more than just a place to collect treasures found on the beach - it's a place for collecting memories, feelings & dreams. Make it yours today!
