There are homes with ocean views, and then there are homes like this. Welcome to Onset's Only Painted Lady, one of Shell Pointe's most recognizable Victorian homes. Built in 1880 and lovingly maintained for decades, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Onset history in a remarkable coastal setting. Step through the double doors into a beautiful, light-filled living room where white oak floors and a graceful arched doorway introduce the character you'll find throughout. The dining room, with its charming built-in cabinetry, flows naturally into the eat-in kitchen, both keeping with the home's historic charm. And the views! With water visible from nearly every window, the ocean is a constant part of everyday life here. Three bedrooms, one and a half baths, and a full basement offering valuable storage complete the main home. Outside, established pollinator gardens add color and character to the grounds, while spectacular sunsets and cooling sea breezes make the setting even more special.A separate accessory building, once used as an art studio, is another wonderful feature. This wide-open space has electricity, heat, and air conditioning, offering flexibility for a home office, creative studio, fitness room, or additional space for guests to gather. Off-street parking is another welcome convenience. Just a short stroll away, newly revitalized Onset Village offers restaurants, shops, beaches, boating, and community events.Homes like this rarely come along. The history, the architecture, the water views, and the setting are what make this Painted Lady so special. Now it's ready for its next chapter.
