About this home

Original 1950s cottage with lots of character. This little charmer is just a short walk to South Beach and comes with beach rights. This property is without question one of the best buys in the South Beach area. Surrounded by mature laurel hedges and trees, it has a private yet sun filled yard. It also has a recently tested and approved septic system. It is an excellent choice for those who want an affordable cottage that can be used now, but has loads of potential for renovation.
