Located between the Broadwalk and the Intracoastal, the home is steps from newly paved Virginia Street, your private pathway to the sand. Three thoughtfully designed levels give you space to live the way you choose — and the flexibility to earn while you're at it. The main living level greets you with an open, sun-filled layout with generous room to make it your own. Upstairs, the primary suite is joined by two additional rooms and a balcony with peeks of the ocean — a reminder of exactly where you are.
