Property Description
Your coastal dream awaits at 203 Carlton Ave! This updated 2BR/2BA Gulf Coast retreat is perfectly positioned just a quick stroll from the beach in Surfside - where the only agenda is chasing sunrises from your front porch and wrapping up the day with a cold drink as the Gulf turns gold. Sweeping water views frame every morning and evening from your expansive covered porch - the kind of backdrop that makes the rest of the world feel very far away. Inside, a bright open-concept living and kitchen layout is built for easy entertaining and laid-back coastal living. Updates include durable cement board siding, modern interior finishes, and an outdoor shower to keep the sand where it belongs. Covered parking below doubles as a shaded hangout and BBQ zone - because the party doesn't stop at the front door. Whether you're planting roots on the Texas Coast, escaping the grind as a second home, or building a short-term rental income stream, this property delivers the full Gulf Coast experience.
