Have you ever been to Surfside Beach? Well its time you come. Our little village has one traffic light, and if you want to live on the beach, this is perfect. The storms last year caused some damage. The seller is selling as is. It is a cute 1 bedroom cottage with a view of the Surfside Jetties and just a walk to a beach with no vehicles. It could easily be changed back to a two bedroom. Recent storms have damaged the home, but it still has a big deck that looks out to the Gulf that will need to be restabilized, along with replacing a some of pilings. You walk in off the deck to the open living area with the kitchen, with one bedroom off the kitchen and the room that was a bedroom open toward the street and a bath between them. Beautiful countertops and finishes. Other repairs include A/C, water heater, some plumbing and electrical. Come see if this home will work for you.
