There is something about life in Atlantic Beach that feels a little more relaxed. Bike rides to the beach, afternoons by the ocean, dinner at a favorite local spot and weekends spent exploring the shops, restaurants and laid back coastal scene that make this community such a special place to call home. This vibrant three bedroom, two bath end unit townhome offers an inviting opportunity to become part of it all. Inspired by the colorful homes of the Florida Keys and Bahamas, the cheerful exterior immediately sets the tone. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated with a fresh, casual style that feels right at home near the coast. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the main level, where the living and dining areas connect easily to an updated kitchen featuring white cabinetry, butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash and a stainless hood vent. The flexible floor plan includes two bedrooms and a full bath downstairs, while the upstairs is dedicated to the primary suite with a walk in closet and private bath. All three bedrooms have recently been painted a fresh white, and new carpet was installed in the upstairs primary bedroom and on the stairs in August 2026. One of the home's best surprises is outside. As an end unit, it enjoys a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to create your own outdoor retreat, whether that means grilling with friends, letting the dogs run, gardening or simply relaxing after a day at the beach. Important improvements over the past several years include cementitious siding, newer windows and sliding glass door, updated bathroom vanities, newer fencing and fresh exterior trim and coquina paint. An oversized two car driveway provides ample off street parking, and with no HOA, there are no monthly association fees. Conveniently located just off Atlantic Boulevard between Penman and Mayport Road, this home puts you close to the beach and everything that makes Atlantic Beach such a sought after place to call home. An easygoing coastal lifestyle is waiting just outside your door.
