Property Description

A rare opportunity at a hard to find price point in WaterSound Beach, an upscale private coastal community located along Scenic Highway 30A. 265 Salt Box Lane brings together a compelling combination: three bedrooms plus a third-floor tower with additional sleeping, a garage, room for a private pool, strong rental potential, and an easy stroll to over a one-mile stretch of sugar-white sand, turquoise water and steps to the WaterSound Beach Club. Behind the quintessential white picket fence, this shingle-clad coastal cottage has the charm and character that make WaterSound Beach so special. A charming front porch sets the tone for an inviting place for morning coffee or unwinding after a day on the beach. Inside, soaring ceilings and a wall of windows fill the great room with natural light, while an open kitchen create a warm gathering space. The primary suite features vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings and a spa-like bathroom. Two additional bedrooms accommodate family and guests, while the third-floor tower provides valuable additional sleeping and flex space. Perhaps the greatest opportunity at 265 Salt Box is what can still be added. The backyard offers room to create an outdoor retreat with private pool, while the garage configuration presents an opportunity to add a carriage house. Enjoy the home as it is today or further enhance it over time. Within the gated beachfront community of WaterSound Beach, owners enjoy private beach access, community pools, scenic boardwalks, shopping, entertainment and dining options all within an unmistakable coastal setting. For buyers waiting for the right opportunity to own in WaterSound Beach without stepping into the community's higher price tiers, 265 Salt Box Lane deserves a closer look.
