Main home is approximately 3,000 sq ft with four bedrooms plus a 1,200 sq ft sun room. One of the large fireplaces is imported Brazilian petrified wood - also the electrical service that was installed here should operate a hotel. The smaller residence on the 2nd lot is also walk-on waterfront. Granted the homes could use some updating/improvements however oceanfront properties of this calibre only become available “Once in a Blue Moon”.
