It's an older beachfront property so a bit worn from weather, but well maintained. We loved being close to the ocean. We had a ground floor porch with Adirondack style chairs and enjoyed sitting, listening to the ocean, seeing the sunset. Beyond the low porch retaining wall is a bike and walking path, so there were people coming and going, dog walking, etc. A bit noisy, but we didn't mind. And on the other side of the path are dirt paths both down to the beach and along the cliffs. Perfect for us.
