About This Home
Listings like this are a rare find-where coastal charm, character, and effortless access to the Intercostal waterway come together in a way that feels extraordinary. Set on nearly half an acre with no HOA, this inviting home captures stunning Intracoastal views and the gentle rhythm of passing boats. Just steps away-right across the street and two doors down-you'll find a deeded boat ramp access, in a protected marina to the Washington Acres boat ramp, complete with preferred parking for your boat trailer, and car making spontaneous days on the water part of everyday life. Picture slow mornings on the front porch, coffee in hand, as ocean breezes drift in and sunlight dances across the water. Evenings bring a different kind of magic-soft skies, salt air, and the peaceful hum of coastal living. Inside, the home offers a flexible and welcoming layout with three bedrooms plus an additional room ideal for a home office or guest sleeping space (per 3BR septic permit) and 2 recently updated bathrooms. Two separate living areas provide versatility for both relaxed living and entertaining, while recent updates to the kitchen and bathrooms add a fresh, modern touch without losing the home's warmth. The upstairs living, dining, and kitchen space is open so everyone can be together for gatherings, entertaining, and relaxing in front of the stone decorated fireplace. Outdoors you will find a fenced in backyard, a detached two-car garage/workshop and additional storage shed that offers space for hobbies, gear, and all things coastal. The large, circular drive, recently resurfaced, makes maneuvering your boat effortless, reinforcing the seamless connection between home and the water. Nestled along the picturesque, storybook setting of Hughes Road in the beloved Washington Acres community, this property invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and fully embrace the coastal lifestyle. This isn't just a home,it's a place to live by the water, to savor the breeze, and to experience the enduring charm of Hampstead.
