Savor a OCEANFRONT duplex with spectacular 270 degree south-facing vistas for all day sun on the beach!

This versatile floor plan includes a 2nd floor with master suite with oceanfront vistas and two additional well-appointed bedrooms.

Sit on the covered deck and watch the sun rise and set over the shining water. The home is positioned closer to the dunes and ocean than the neighboring homes for unobstructed vistas up and down the island. Watch the kids play on the beach from the deck or the many ocean-view windows in the home.
