Because coastal structural engineer Philip Batten was consulted in the 2005 pre-Katrina enlargements, NEW west, south and east wall framing was constructed WITH structural tie-downs (not code required THEN), that are NOW required in new builds. And Immediate, 2005, post-Katrina consultations resulted in interior structural enhancements not usually found in most new builds (likely because of the cost). Strengthening 1/2 inch (plus) thick, solid-wood-finished-surface INTERIOR walls and ceilings were placed as follows: the northeast corner rooms, the southeast corner large, built-in alcove, the northwest corner bedroom, and the central hallway-library. Yes, there is lots more to this "curbside cottage" than what can be shown in the photos or detailed here. Side yards as well as backyard are completely fenced and the generous backyard has plenty of room for a future pool or outdoor oasis....also 7 prime, elevated parking spaces and no HOA. Enjoy peace of mind with a brand new roof and new HVAC system. Stroll or golf cart 3-4 blocks to the beach, harbor, parks or 4 blocks to restaurants, shops & sweets on historic Washington Ave. This exceptional home has never flooded, but includes transferrable flood insurance. To make your move even easier, the seller is offering $8,600 in buyer allowances for select updates at closing. Book your viewing now, before the popular Cruisin the Coast succeeded by the massively attended Peter Anderson Arts & Crafts Festival (20,000 visitors) arrive; both events are easy walking to this fragrantly landscaped, pollinator-friendly custom Craftsman.
