With an unrivaled location in the heart of historic Grayton Beach, this 3 bedroom, 3 full bathroom updated beach bungalow is just one block from the beach. Situated on a highly coveted extra-large lot and framed by century-old live oak trees, this home is a private oasis in the heart of town. Walk out your front door and the best of Grayton is steps away – dining, shopping, entertainment, the always-calm Western Lake, and beautiful Grayton Beach, twice voted the best beach in the United States. If people-watching is your thing, then you'll love the front porch at 149 Garfield. The screened porch is perfect for intimate gatherings, connecting with your neighbors, enjoying your favorite book, or just downtime. Kick back in the swing, enjoy a glass of lemonade, coffee, or your favorite beverage and take a step back in time. For more intimate gatherings, head to the oversized backyard with its saltwater pool and lush vegetation. This is a perfect spot for family gatherings, pool parties, and barbeques. The backyard also houses a storage shed and is protected by a large privacy fence with a gate, allowing parking for several vehicles and room for a boat or RV. The size of the lot also allows ample room to expand the house or add a garage apartment. (Plans have been drawn by Matt Savoie of Savoie Architects). Houses in Grayton Beach are a rare commodity. This home provides a laid back life-style in a perfect location. It won't last.
