Walk to beach in about eight minutes, then rinse the sand off at the outdoor shower and unwind in the fenced backyard. When a countdown starts, the upstairs balcony becomes your rocket launch view. Bring the whole crew, the dog included: this pet friendly home sits on a quiet cul-de-sac in Cape Canaveral, where mornings start slow with coffee on the balcony and evenings end under the palms with the Space Coast humming around you.
ABOUT THIS SPACE
Start downstairs, where the living room gathers everyone around a big sectional, a tiled fireplace and a wall-mounted TV. French doors open straight to the covered patio, so the party drifts outside whenever it wants. The open floor plan flows into the kitchen and a bright dining nook, so the cook stays in the conversation.
The kitchen is set up for real meals, with a stainless steel range, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, toaster, blender, hot water kettle, a Keurig plus a coffee maker, and a bar with stools for quick breakfasts. A downstairs half bath and a laundry room with a washer and dryer keep sandy towels under control.
Upstairs you will find all three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a second gathering space:
- Captain's Quarters Suite: a king bed, a window seat, two closets, and an ensuite bathroom with double sinks and a walk-in shower. The air mattress is available here for an extra sleeper.
- Palm Room: a queen bed, a wall TV and a louvered closet.
- Under the Sea Suite: a queen bed, plus a loft with a twin bed that kids tend to claim first.
- Hall bath: tub and shower combination.
- Family room: two sofas and a very large TV that feels like a home theater, with a door that opens to the balcony.
Outside, the covered patio is the place everyone ends up: egg chairs, a ceiling fan, an outdoor dining table and a gas BBQ grill (propane is provided). Past it sits the fenced backyard, and beside the patio the outdoor shower has hot and cold water for rinsing off after the beach. A bike is available for guest use.
Beach gear is waiting for you, including a beach wagon and cooler, chairs, an umbrella, boogie boards and kids' toys, so you can leave the heavy lifting at home. Little ones are covered too, with a pack 'n play, a high chair, children's dinnerware, books and toys, and board games. Wifi, air conditioning, ceiling fans, bed linens, hair dryers and an iron round out the basics.
