Supplements: SUMMERLAND BEACH CHIC! Perched atop Summerland's highest street, one can enjoy both expansive ocean views in front and a sweeping vista of picturesque woodlands and mountains in back. A delightful beachy ambience with crisp classic lines radiates upon entry into the light-filled living room, Attractive light wood paneling above the mantel continues to one side where glass shelving glows with subtle back-lighting. Textured carpeting in all bedrooms adds to the beach aesthetic with the soft neutral color of sand. The adjacent dining area features wainscoting trim, new wide-plank distressed wood flooring and white vinyl sliders that open to the rear mountain-view entertainment deck. Flowing through to the updated kitchen, creamy ceramic tile counter tops and premium stainless steel appliances contrast nicely with the warmth of the wood floor. A door to the deck accommodates easy outdoor entertaining. The front bedroom has a fabulous ocean view through its Plantation shutters. Down the hall is a luxury bath with skylight, marbleized Travertine tile floors and Travertine tile glass-enclosed shower stall with a double niche and bench. A separate tub with Travertine surround boasts an American Standard Jacuzzi.

An adjoining 3rd bedroom could potentially be used as an office to create an extended master suite from the middle bedroom.
