Need a get away? Welcome to “Shore Beats Work”! This beautiful 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath oceanfront home has been lovingly updated in 2022. “Shore Beats Work” is sure to offer everything you need for your next sun-filled vacation. It boasts two primary suites.

When you enter the home, you will immediately be met with the views of the ocean just behind the house. The living room, kitchen, and dining area are all open to each other, providing a great space for friends and family to gather together. The spacious kitchen features stainless appliances, granite countertops, a large farmhouse sink, and beautiful views of the beach. The eat-in kitchen has dinner seating for 6. The living room area has a sofa and love seat with seating for 5. Also on the ground level is the primary bedroom with a comfy king bed, TV, daybed, and views of the ocean and beach. The primary bathroom features a walk-in shower.

Upstairs are three more bedrooms, each with ocean views and access to the 2nd floor oceanfront balcony. The 2nd bedroom has a king bed, TV, and a small desk. It also has its own bathroom with a beautiful walk-in shower. Bedroom 3 has a queen bed, TV and a small desk. The 4th bedroom is perfect for kids, with three sets of twin-over-twin bunk beds, bean bag chairs, and a TV. Bedrooms 3 and 4 share a full bathroom which has a shower/tub combination. There is also a half bath in the garage, which comes in handy if you are coming in from the beach.

The outside of the house is just as inviting! On the lower level deck, you’ll find plenty of seating facing the ocean. In the afternoon, as the sun finds its way to the west side of the house, the back deck becomes shaded. On the north east corner of the deck are two large picnic tables, offering a great place for outdoor seating and dining. Did we mention that “Shore Beats Work” is pet friendly? On the north side of the house is a fully fenced area that is perfect for letting your pooch do her business (please clean up after them). The entire deck areas can be closed with gates creating somewhat of a safe haven for children or pets.

We haven’t found many houses closer to the beach than this one. From the back deck you are literally just a few steps to the sand. We provide beach chairs and beach towels for you to use during your stay. There is also a shower for rinsing off the sand before coming back into the house.
