Enjoy a beautifully appointed home with access to one of Florida's finest beaches at the end of the street. This is a quiet community of single family homes, ideally located in the heart of Melbourne Beach. Our home is on an "ocean to river" street - two blocks to the water in either direction.
"Sol y Mar" has an upscale-casual feel, combining the relaxed ambience of the beach with fine furnishings. There is a spectacular, private fenced back yard, with a hot tub on the screened porch. Inside, the house is approximately 1500 square feet, all on one level for easy access.
Completely renovated, it has large terra cotta tile floors throughout, a stone fireplace, fully stocked kitchen with granite countertops and designer sink.
The master bedroom is furnished with Tommy Bahama furniture. Plantation style shutters adorn the front windows. Numerous pieces of original artwork add to the home's casual elegance. Both bathrooms have fully tiled showers (no bathtubs).
Our close-in location makes walking or biking an everyday pleasure. Walk to the historic Town Pier for beautiful sunsets. The picturesque town park (tennis courts, basketball, shuffleboard, playground), new library, and local restaurants are also just a few blocks away. There are several golf courses nearby. And within driving distance there is world class fishing, boating and kayaking.
"Sol y Mar" is 60 miles from Orlando International Airport; 5.6 miles from Melbourne Airport. Cocoa Beach and Kennedy Space Center are 25 minutes away. It is 16 miles to Sebastian Inlet State Park. Orlando attractions (Disney, Universal, Sea World) are just over one hour away.
"Sol y Mar" is a gem. It is rare to find Florida beach towns that are not over developed, or overrun by tourists. If you want nightlife and a high-energy beach scene, you may want to look elsewhere. However, if you are looking for a peaceful, idyllic spot to enjoy the best of Florida's natural charms, "Sol y Mar" is unparalleled! Feel free to contact us for additional pictures.
