Classic cottage on coveted “Little Balboa Island.” Originally crafted in 1928, this home has been beautifully updated as a perfect romantic getaway just steps away from the bay. The front house has a main living area with a fireplace and vaulted ceiling, a related dining area, and recessed lighting providing a light and airy feeling throughout. Enjoy cooking in the freshly remodeled kitchen featuring a new refrigerator, gas stove, microwave, and dishwasher, all complimented by custom cabinets, and new tile floor. A remodeled three-quarter bath and a cozy bedroom complete this special gem. The house features crown molding and plantation shutters throughout, along with zoned heating and air conditioning. The exterior has white awnings and a new roof installed in 2015. In the back, there is a spacious patio and a separate garage. The garage has extra storage space and an attached bonus room and three-quarter bath perfect for a home office or just to revive from a day at the beach. Excellent location on Crystal Avenue close to all the shops and restaurants on Marine Avenue. This is a perfect property for a vacation home or for just enjoying the benefits of Island living.
