About This Home

3505 Island Drive

Experience coastal living at its best on one of the rare oversized lots on the island. Set on an expansive 50x200 lot, this beautifully updated beach home offers a level of privacy, space, and sweeping sound views that are truly hard to find. As you step onto the covered front porch, gentle breezes welcome you in and provide a cool, relaxing escape year-round. Inside, the home opens to a bright, tranquil interior painted in a soft seafoam palette, creating a peaceful atmosphere from the moment you enter. The thoughtful layout frames the home's greatest feature: unobstructed, 180-degree views of the sound stretching across the back of the property. In the evenings, the back patio becomes your front-row seat to breathtaking sunsets in shades of pink, lavender, and gold. The spacious kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, excellent storage, and stainless-steel appliances--including an oven, refrigerator microwave, and dishwasher. The primary suite is generously sized for island living, featuring a walk-in closet, updated vanity and mirrors, a walk-in shower, and a large soaking tub. A refreshed second bathroom and a dedicated laundry room with a stackable washer/dryer add comfort and convenience for guests or family. Outside, a freshly painted deck enhances the home's coastal charm. Beneath the home, you'll find ample covered parking, room for outdoor entertaining, and a craftsman-style storage shed ideal for tools, beach gear, or hobbies. An attractive flood insurance premium --potentially assumable -- adds peace of mind and additional value. With its rare lot size, stunning sound views, and move-in-ready updates, this property delivers the space, serenity, and island lifestyle you've been dreaming of. Come experience this special slice of coastal paradise for yourself. Used as a short-term rental in the past with a $73k 3-year avg gross revenue, Airbnb and Direct. Nearly $30k and growing in booked reservations for 2026 that could either transfer to the new owner OR seller is offering to lease the property back at $5000/month through Oct 1 and manage the reservations himself during that time. This is a unique opportunity for a buyer to step into a stress-free investment during the busy season, with a consistent stream of income.
