The first level of the home, which was completely renovated in 2017, offers three additional bedrooms, a spacious den, a powder room, and well-equipped laundry room. Wood paneled walls and ceilings echo the island architecture of the upper level. Crisp tile floors, sisal area rugs, barn doors, colorful artwork, and comfortable furnishings lend a contemporary cottage feel to the spaces.

The adjoining lower patio equipped with comfortable deep seating and an outdoor ping pong table, provides covered outdoor space for rainy days and hot summer afternoons. A spacious dune deck with seating, storage and outdoor shower connects the pool to the sand via a shapely boardwalk over the dunes.
