Welcome to Island Marshwood - a desirable south-end community that embodies coastal retirement living. This updated (and hard to find) end unit has 2 bedrooms/1.5 baths and offers the perfect blend of size, style, and amenities. Plenty of natural sunlight fills over 1180 sq/ft of inside living space where you will find updated quartz countertops, shaker cabinets, pendant and recessed lighting, upgraded appliances, and a deep double basin composite sink in the kitchen. Driftwood styled LVP floors throughout the first floor lead you into an open concept living area highlighted by a hand-crafted chevron clad wood burning fireplace perfect for cozy fall gatherings with friends (and is a favorite spot for the dogs to curl up and wait for their next walk on the beach located less than a mile away!) Tucked just past the fireplace things get even better as you walk into a wonderfully cozy glassed in back porch where you can relax in your private oasis to enjoy cocktails, that book you can't put down, or maybe watch a movie as you drift off for a snooze in your favorite chair. This backroom is where the magic of this home really happens because it serves as the connection between inside and outside living that makes this private end unit so desirable. Open the glass framed patio door and you immediately feel the natural beauty of St. Simons Island harmonize with this home. Tree tangled trunks of oak and palm trees shaped by years of salt infused breezes create a beautiful natural canopy that frames your outdoor living space. The enclosed and very private outdoor shower offers hot and cold water to rinse off after returning from your daily jaunt to the beach with the dogs, grandchildren, or visitors. A half bath is cleverly included off the living space downstairs. Bedtime awaits upstairs where there are two spacious bedrooms connected by a fully updated bathroom that includes plenty of storage space, a tub/shower surrounded with subway tile. Across the hall is a laundry closet with a full-size, front loading washer and dryer, and additional storage space for linens, laundry and cleaning supplies. Both bedrooms have large windows that allow plenty of the Georgia sunshine in. Community amenities strike the right balance between comfort and pragmatic convenience. HOA fees don't break the bank here - coming in at just $270.00/month you get access to a heated salt water pool, fire pit, walkways, outdoor lights, and 50% of your flood insurance is covered. Whether you are looking for a traditional retirement path, an investment opportunity path or just a great spot with a sandy path leading to the beautiful St. Simon's Island coast, Island Marshwood gets you there by offering the right blend of casual luxury with practical lifestyle options. This unit makes a great primary residence, second home, or investment property. Island Marshwood has a 30-day rental minimum. Perfect for FLETC, traveling nurses, and snow birds.
