Rebuilt in 2005-2006 from the studs up to maintain the integrity of the original 1926 bungalow with painstaking attention to detail - Original Heart of Pine floors, Bead Board & Claw Foot Tub – Everything is NEW - New Kitchen - New Baths - New Drywall - New Windows - New Shakes - Everything New but “in period”. It looks like it came right out of Pottery Barn. Designed to accommodate small to large groups, it has 3 options – The MAIN house is 4 BEDROOMS plus a 4 BED SLEEPING LOFT and 4.5 BATHS that SLEEPS 15 comfortable. FIRST Floor is 2 BED 1 Bath that SLEEPS 7. Rent BOTH for 22 Guests. It was designed to work well with multiple families - 2 or 3 families going together to share the experience and the expense. That is what beach homes were originally made for and that is what The Chautauqua is here to recreate. Memories where families & friends can come together, away from their daily grind, to enjoy each other & the sun & the surf.

	So“how is the surf” That is what you are coming for isn’t it? The Chautauqua happens to have the BEST BEACH in the area. They vary widely so I’ll try to point out the differences. 1st- The SAND IS LIKE POWDER not coarse ground up shells like some. 2nd -The OCEAN IS AT YOUR DOORSTEP – No ong, raised boardwalk w/a 5 minute walk across the dunes to navigate w/coolers/ chairs/floats/blankets - you get the idea. 3rd- There are NO CARSs on the beach. Be careful there are lots of Drive Beaches. Imagine trying to play paddle ball w/cars continually passing by & being on constant baby alert. 4th -The Beach is WIDE, level & private - no high rise condos and no steep narrow beach w/rocks in the surf & 5th - BEST WAVES. The kids will love it. We provide Boogie Boards & for the more daring you can rent surf boards at the end of the street. The locals consider it the BEST SURF beach & have a 24 hr website with LIVE WAVES shot from MY DECK. Call for webaddress.

The Chautauqua starts with the Great room - 24 foot long – which acts as the main focal point. We kept the original 1926 quarried Coquina fireplace. It is Real Coquina - Just like the Fort you will see in Old St Augustine! (We are still looking for someone to restore it). The Bead board wainscoted is also original, carefully removed & refinished from the original walls. The floors are Heart of Pine. They don’t even grow wood like that any more. The stairs and loft are Brazilian Cherry. The windows are cased in specially milled period trim. Even the interior doors, all 8 foot, were patterned after the originals. It has 3 comfortable Leather Couches around the TV ENTERTAINMENT CENTER with WIRELESS INTERNET - a MUSIC CENTER with PIANO & Guitar – a LARGE DINING table that seats 10 plus 4 bar stools at the counter – a Powder Room – lots of Wall Sconces -- and Wonderful OCEAN VIEWS

	We added a NEW state of the art GOURMET Kitchen. Full wood Cherry Mission cabinets w/tumbled marble backsplash & gorgeous sea scape metallic tile accents. The most unusual GRANITE I had never seen. Looks like sand. STAINLESS FARM SINK & long eating bar - Black Glass Jennaire DOUBLE OVENS with matching Refrigerator and Smooth Cooktop – Stainless Dishwasher – Microwave – Toaster – Crock pot - Full array of cooking tools, pots & pans – Full Place Setting of Dishes plus Plastic set for outside & fun plates for the kids - Beautiful Honed Chisel edged STONE floors throughout the Kitchen, PANTRY and separate LAUNDRY with LINEN CLOSET down the hall.

There are 4 BEDROOMS that radiate off the Greatroom and stairs up to the 4 BED SLEEPING LOFT/POOL room/Bath. The 2 OCEAN FRONT MASTERS have sliders direct onto the OCEAN FRONT DECK and STONE baths. The first has a British Colonial style QUEEN canopy bed – antique CLAW FOOT TUB – and separate stone RAIN SHOWER w/Body Spray. The other Master has a Cherry QUEEN Sleigh Bed with matching Armoire & JETTED TUB/Shower. The 3rd Bedroom can function as a 3rd Master with a DAYBED or a children’s room. It has another West Indies style Canopy QUEEN w/white Bead Board walls & a private Stone bath with Tub/Shower. The 4th Bedroom also has Beadboard wainscoat with a QUEEN Bed & a SINGLE rollout Trundle. It uses the Powder Room & showers in the Upstairs Loft.

	The LOFT is the show place of it all. The view is unsurpassed - COVERED LANAI recessed into the house for sun and wind protection. And I know you will love the SLEEPING BERTHS - 3 SINGLES complete w/individual reading lights, TV/DVDs, and under bed Storage Drawers for all your “stuff” PLUS a DOUBLE size bed in the alcove serves double duty as a bed and extra couch/play area for the kids. It comes with loads of shelves to store all the board games that are provided for your enjoyment. But the loft is more than just a place to sleep! There is a second built-in TV ENTERTAINMENT CENTER with Cable TV/DVD and a comfortable leather couch for lounging. A brand NEW POOL TABLE. A full WET BAR with antique corner sink, frig and extra microwave for late night popcorn. Even a push button drink dispenser the children (or beer drinkers) will love. The bath is a classic. All white Subway tile walls w/sink that looks like a piece of furniture w/white Vessel Sink

But the beach is about being OUTSIDE to enjoy the Breeze and Sound of the Waves so we have designed LOADS of OUTDOOR SPACE. Everything is Teak. The front porch has 4 Rocking Chairs – 2 Benches – 3 Adirondacks – one Table Set on the Porch and another Large Table on the OPEN PATIO - Plenty of room for EVERYONE TO EAT OUT SIDE! I put in Ceiling Fans but I do not think you will need them. There always seems to be a nice breeze and no bugs. STAINLESS GAS GRILL too along with an OUTDOOR SHOWER and place to hang the BEACH TOWELS along the sides of the steps.

	This is the view from the loft. It really is SPECTACULAR. It shows how the beach is just a few steps away. NO LONG CATWALKS and NO CARS DRIVING ON THE BEACH. Just WIDE WHITE POWDER SAND. Great for making Drip Castles and catching little fish in the tide pools. Great BODY SURFING too. The kids will love it. In the summer you can walk down to the pier for LIVE CONCERTS on Wednesday nights put on my the City. At the end of our street, Jacks has BQ and live outdoor music too – even a pool for their guests. It is a bit funky but I like it. There are all sorts of restaurants within walking distance so you do not have to cook all your meals. Just two doors down is the Beachcomber right on the ocean. I am going to put together a Scrap Book to help you find them all. There are SPAS within walking distance too. You are on vacation so treat yourself. And a YMCA for members with a POOL and GYM.
