A rare opportunity to own a unique oceanfront property with numerous possibilities! This privately situated custom-built one bedroom carriage house on 2.5 acres with 390 feet of saltwater frontage on Holmes Bay offers expansive ocean views. The steps to the ocean provide access to the shoreline for kayaking, beachcombing, and other waterfront activities. A second level deck is perfect for simply relaxing and taking in elevated ocean views. This property is being sold turnkey and ready for immediate occupancy. Enjoy year-round or seasonal coastal living in the comfortable and inviting living quarters consisting of a large bedroom, full bathroom, and an open concept living room, kitchen, and dining area perched above an oversized two-bay garage. The cedar ceilings in the living quarters provide a rustic cabin feel. The garage has plenty of storage space for vehicles, kayaks, ATVs, and much more. Adjacent to the structure is a gravel pad for RV or camper parking to accommodate guests.
