Description

Gentle breezes from the garden waft through the open skylights all summer long with the sound of breaking waves when the surf is up. Main bedroom with a queen bed. Kids room with bunk beds and small desk. Guest bedroom / study has a foldout high-end double futon (it's comfortable for extended stays, not a squishy hide-a-bed). Great room is nice for entertaining. Outdoor dining on back porch or patio. Small fish pond burbles peacefully and attracts birds.
