A finely crafted bungalow directly on the gulf on Seaside's western side of town. The cottage is perfection without pretension. Simplicity is its essence. The first level redesign of the bedroom and bath includes custom built in cabinets, closets, tiled shower, washer/dryer, king bed with storage beneath. The bedroom opens onto a private shuttered porch with an outdoor soaking tub. Open the shutters to revel a private sanctuary of native oaks with the sound of birds singing. The stairway winds its way up to the second level where the living room takes full advantage of the fabulous gulf views. Sunlight cascades into the cottage, constantly changing the mood of the room. The wood burning stove adds ambience to those chilly winter nights. At high noon the turquois gulf shimmers, while later in the day the sun dips towards the horizon, waves glisten from the sunset over the sugar white sand and sea. The covered porch is the perfect place to take in the amazing views of the gulf from east to west. The full kitchen has all you need to prepare picnics for the beach or quiet dinners. The great room with vaulted ceiling and white slipped covered furnishings creates an inviting beach cottage by the sea. Meet your neighbors at the beach pavilion just around the corner for a get-together and a glass of wine or stroll down to Seaside's town center for some entertainment.
