Cypress Cottage is a traditional raised beach home with a newly renovated first floor, completed in 2023. It’s comfortable and more spacious than expected, but still has that cozy, beachy charm. The four-bedroom, 2.5-bath home comfortably accommodates up to 10 people, with room for 13. Nearly every window offers inlet views. After a day on the beach, enjoy the enclosed outdoor shower with both hot and cold water to wash off the sand. The fully stocked kitchen includes all appliances and cookware, and both a Keurig and a traditional Mr. Coffee-style coffee pot for your morning coffee. Sliding glass doors lead to a pergola-covered terrace with additional seating. The deck runs across the length of the house and features lounge chairs and a charcoal grill. You’ll also find board games, playing cards, and books in the bookcase—feel free to swap a book if you’d like to discover a new author. The backyard offers a sunbathing patio and a shaded area under a 100-year-old cypress tree. Please note that Cypress Cottage has Wi-Fi, Roku streaming devices (with free Roku selections and Disney streaming), and DVD players in two upstairs bedrooms.
