The Getaway

This 1950 3 bedroom 2 bath island house was remodeled with a Mid Century vibe. Some of the original features have been kept for authenticity. "The Getaway" feels like you are stepping back in time. It is a wonderful place to ride bikes and you can walk across the street to launch our 2 kayaks. I love our floor plan and the fact that each of the three bedrooms are large enough for a private retreat while the open kitchen/living area is so comfortable for the whole group to be together.

A spacious deck overlooks the tranquil waters, featuring bright blue chairs arranged for relaxation. Palm trees frame the scene, and the setting sun casts soft hues across the sky, enhancing the peaceful ambiance of this waterfront space.
