Welcome to 243 87th Street — a beautifully designed five-bedroom, five full and two half-bath upside-down style home located just two blocks from the beach and moments from the bay. Built by Ed McFalls Custom Homes, this residence reflects high-end craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and effortless coastal sophistication. The sun-filled second-floor living level features an open-concept great room ideal for entertaining. Engineered luxury vinyl flooring provides the warmth and appearance of hardwood with the durability perfectly suited for shore living. Expansive windows flood the space with natural light, creating a bright and inviting setting for gathering with family and guests. The gourmet kitchen is as functional as it is striking, offering quartz countertops, a timeless subway tile backsplash, premium stainless steel appliances, and dual dishwashers designed to accommodate large groups with ease.

Complete with a wet bar and beverage refrigerator, it provides yet another expansive gathering space perfect for sunrise coffee, sunset cocktails, or evening relaxation under the stars. A three-car concrete driveway, low-maintenance fiber-board plank siding, and strong, proven rental performance further enhance the home’s appeal.
