COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS!!! and Feed your soul. Steps from the water's edge.

Count Your Blessings is a stunning two story 3-bedroom 2 1/2-bath teal-colored home in quiet Cassine Village. The beauty of this house lies in its decor and quiet setting yet close proximity to the tennis and pickle ball courts, beach, food, boutiques, groceries and things to do on the beach and in the protected forest that is next to the neighborhood. We hope to make this our home soon but until then we want to share its blessings with you.
The front of the house features a covered porch and balcony with Adirondack chairs and fans that is very private as there are live oaks between the house and the street. The 2nd floor front porch looks north toward the forest, accessed from the Master Bedroom and is equipped with ceiling fans that provides you with a breeze when the sea breeze fails to deliver. A perfect place to be on those days when the Florida sunshine come in the liquid form.
The back of the house features screen porches on each floor. The 1st floor porch has a bistro table and stools along with a four lounge chairs shaded by two palms. The same palms frame the 2nd floor screened porch that is accessed from the twin and queen bedrooms. The upstairs screened porch is perfect for an afternoon nap with a comfortable hanging bed that gives you the feel of being in a treehouse. Grab your book, your glass of wine or cup of coffee and enjoy either, and listen for the waves rolling into the beach a short distance away.
Inside the front door, you are greeted by a bench created by a local artist that acts as storage for beach towels that you can grab as you head for the water. The high ceilings in every room keep the house cool on all but the hottest days but also has central heat and cooling when you need something more. You will find the amenities needed for your first-class vacation including the connectivity of Wi-Fi and streaming options on all TVs . The sitting area has two couches, one that pulls out into a queen-sized sofa bed, two chairs, a map table and reading lamps. For your entertainment, a 55-in. wall mounted television with a Blu-ray player with a collection of DVDs and Roku attached, a stereo with a hookup for your iPod or use the Alexa. If you cannot agree on what to watch, there are smart TVs and Roku/Fire Stick in two of the upstairs bedroom and a collection of family friendly DVDs and a DVD player TV in the third . All the furniture is comfortable and colorful. The walls are highlighted with more local artwork and large shuttered windows. As you look around the rest of the first floor, your eye will be drawn to the eclectic blue green chandelier centered over a large dining room table with seating for 8. A drop-leaf craft table and a kitchen counter with 4 bar stools, half bath, fully equipped laundry room and kitchen with a new dishwasher, range and microwave complete the first floor. There are blenders, food processors, serving pieces, along with a toaster and coffee maker with a bean grinder for the coffee lovers in your group.
The second floor features a rice carved, mahogany poster bed in the master bedroom, its own bathroom with a two sink vanity and large shower. The other two bedrooms are joined by a Jack and Jill bathroom with a shower tub and are decorated in peaceful watercolors with unique artwork in every room. The top shelf of the twin bedroom closet has games and puzzles for our guest to enjoy and the bedding for the porch swinging bed is in the closet of the queen bedroom.
The beach is about a 5 minute walk across 30A to the sugar white sand of the gulf. On the way to and from the beach access you pass one of two neighborhood pools, the tennis court, nature trail and pond that has a daytime fountain that keeps the entire neighborhood a little cooler in the summer than the surrounding area. The bike path that runs the length of 30A is about a 45-second ride from the back door. If you are new to the area, biking is very popular and there are several bike rentals, paddle board, golf cart and kayak rental locations a short walk away.
The chef owner stocked the kitchen for cooking in style. If you need a break from the kitchen, Brozinni pizza, The Perfect Pig and Cafe 30A restaurants, Goatfeather's seafood market, and Donut Hut, our local favorites, are just a short stroll away. For more variety, there are another 20+ restaurants in either direction along 30A and on Hwy 98. We are about 1 mile east of Seaside on 30A and 5 miles from famous Grayton Beach.
One of two Community Pools is only three lots down for a quick dip and tennis/pickleball courts are located behind the pool. Bike, walk, enjoy!! You will be quickly lulled into relaxing and getting away from it all!
