Nestled just blocks from the beach, the vibrant Strand, and the Pleasure Pier, this 1895 Victorian home invites you to slow down, breathe in the salty air, and settle into island life where history and comfort intertwine. Originally built just five years before the great storm of 1900, this lovingly restored residence radiates warmth and resilience. Inside, original stained glass windows catch the sunlight, casting dappled colors on hardwood floors and preserved architectural details. The home tells a story in every creak of its staircase and every intricate trim - a graceful blend of timeless craftsmanship and thoughtful updates.

The adjacent kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, a Keurig coffee maker, and cooking basics to prepare everything from a casual breakfast to a seafood dinner sourced from nearby markets. For cozy evenings, retreat to the upstairs family room, where French doors open to a private balcony - a charming spot to sip wine or watch the sky shift colors at sunset. Sleeping Arrangements With three thoughtfully designed bedrooms and four comfortable beds, the home easily accommodates up to eight guests.
