Exclusive Beach Access...Without the Mega Price! Why settle for one backyard when you can have two? At 890 Pinetree Lane, your first backyard is perfect for patio lounging... and your second backyard is Potbelly Beach, just a short stroll down your private path. Homes on this street rarely hit the market... because honestly, who would ever give up this lifestyle? This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 2,109 sq ft home with a detached 2-car garage serves up vaulted wood ceilings, big sunny windows, and a kitchen made for coastal living with granite counters, center island, and built-ins included. The first floor primary suite is your post-beach sanctuary, the loft workspace gives you "I work by the ocean" bragging rights, and the open layout makes every gathering feel like a mini-vacation. Spoiler: Once you live here, you'll wonder how you ever survived without a beach for a backyard. Life's too short for "someday"... live your beach life now!
