Most homes in this barrio are near 100 years old and many are in a state of needing repair. Rarely do they come up for sale or rent. When they do, investors are on the look-out to fix and flip them. This home is newly constructed of modern materials and ready to go! Once the pier is completed and tourism begins to progress, this will be among the hottest areas downtown. It reminds me of downtown Kona or Ventura beach many years ago, with eclectic homes and businesses coming together with a walk-able beach vibe.
The home has 2 floors. On the first floor is a large open concept kitchen, dining area, and living room. There is a guest bathroom and the kitchen has all new, high quality, appliances included. Decorative security bars are on all the doors and windows. The entire downstairs area is light and bright with a very open feel. A stairway of strong metal and beautiful wood leads to the second floor.
On the top floor there is a decorative metal doorway that leads to a back balcony. Here, there is an ocean view and cool breezes passing by. 注意: there is only one house between this house and the beach. Currently, it is a 2-story house, but there are plans to tear it down and build a new one-story house. This will open up the ocean view from the back balcony tremendously!
Upstairs are 2 bedrooms with a Jack & Jill bathroom that has double sinks and mirrors. An all-in-one paneling in the shower makes for easy cleaning – no tile grout! A new, high quality, front loading, stacked washer and gas dryer are included. Closets are large, with one walk-in and the other has a cute barn door (all the rage today!).
Air-conditioning is throughout the entire home. A reserve water tank and pump are included, as well as a hot water heater. The house is constructed with foam insulation which helps regulate temperature and reduce outside noises. The floors are ceramic tile and the home is brightly colored outside to fit the vibrant theme of this neighborhood.
There is a large covered veranda in the front and a beautiful decorative fence. A wraparound grass yard on the 2 sides and backyard provide plenty of space for gardens and tropical plants.There is an automatic door, with remote, on the enclosed garage. Direct beach access is on both sides of the house. The new pier, currently under construction, is a short walk down the beach. The beach is sandy and the ocean here is good for swimming. Small waves are perfect to boogie board and learn to surf.
This would be a perfect house for a couple or small family that wants easy access to town and cultural activities. The easy access also makes this home a perfect investment option as a rental, since quality rentals this close to town are in high demand.
