The home's three bedrooms include a peaceful owner's retreat with high wood ceilings, wide ocean-view windows, custom closets, a door to the front balcony, and a lovely tiled bath with a large glass block window over the soaking tub. One of the other bedrooms has extensive library shelving and could double as an office. At the back of the house is a patio, with steps leading up to a landscaped pathway.
