Though only a block from the beach, this shore home entices one to lounge by the pool in a private courtyard. The first floor great room opens to a spacious deck which steps down to the pool. Covered porches define areas of the deck for television viewing, lounging and dining, extending the living area of the home. The garage structure provides privacy and forms the fourth wall of the courtyard. Louvered shutters and railings provide additional privacy without blocking the sea air.
