A very rare opportunity to own one of Shell Pointe’s most recognizable and beloved homes and Onset's Only Painted Lady. Built in 1880 and lovingly cared for for decades, this special Victorian is the kind of property that simply cannot be recreated. Perched in an extraordinary coastal setting, the home enjoys spectacular ocean views, gorgeous sunsets and cooling sea breezes that serve as a daily reminder of just how special life here can be. Inside the home is filled with the character and warmth you hope to find in a historic seaside property, with white oak floors throughout, three bedrooms, one and a half baths and a full basement offering valuable storage. Outside, mature pollinator gardens surround the property, creating a wonderfully established cottage landscape. Perhaps one of its most exciting features is the separate accessory studio building, an incredible bonus with endless possibilities. Create an art or writing studio, private office, creative workspace, homeschool room, fitness space or simply additional room for guests to gather and spread out. Off-street parking adds another sought-after convenience in this coveted coastal location.Then there is the location. From this magnificent home, it is just a short stroll to newly revitalized Onset Village, where restaurants, shops, beaches, boating, community events and the unmistakable energy of this historic seaside village are right outside your door. Homes can be renovated and Views can be admired but history, setting and character like this are nearly impossible to duplicate. The isn't simply a house by the ocean, it is a chance to become the next steward of one of Shell Pointe’s truly special homes and to own a little piece of Onset history.
