This sweet, well-maintained home is your perfect full-time dream or second-home getaway! The owners have blocked most of the rental calendar for their own use, offering you incredible flexibility for personal occupancy in 2026. On the first level, you will find three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an ensuite. The kitchen, family, and dining areas flow together seamlessly under a vaulted ceiling, making the main living space feel incredibly spacious. Added in 2006, the upper level features a bright, open room with abundant windows, a cozy gas fireplace, a half bath, and a wet bar. From here, step out onto the sun deck to relax in the hot tub and take in the beautiful ocean views! Per a prior listing, major updates since 2015 include the HVAC, roof, water heater, refrigerator, washer, kitchen cabinets with Silestone countertops, and Anderson windows. The current owners have continued updates with interior paint, updated lighting and most furnishings which further the home's clean and move in ready appeal. While it lives like a four-bedroom property, the current septic is permitted for three bedrooms; however, the spacious 10,000-square-foot lot accommodates expansion, and an improvement permit for a four-bedroom system is already on file. You will love the shaded outdoor living space beneath the house—perfect for relaxing in a hammock with a cool drink. Located on Bold Dune Drive in Waves, this peaceful community features larger, private lots, ocean access right at the end of the street, and a welcoming neighborhood with many full-time residents.
