Convenience Features
While everyone has their own checklists regarding what’s important in a beach house, some features may not be immediately obvious to first-time buyers. For example, having two dishwashers can be incredibly useful if you’re hosting large groups or extended family gatherings. Two sets of refrigerators/freezers can also come in handy for storing food and drinks during your stay. Similarly, two sets of washers and dryers can make laundry day less hassle. Some people will dedicate a washer/dryer for their clothing and bed linens and another set for sandy beach towels and bathing suits. Another convenient feature to consider is an easily accessible bathroom after spending time at the beach or pool. No one wants to track sand through the house trying to find a shower! Internet boosters can also be helpful if you need reliable connectivity during your stay, while landscaping sprinkler systems can keep your outdoor spaces looking lush and green.
Size and Budget
Of course, the size of the home and your budget will also play a role in what features are available or feasible. However, even smaller homes can benefit from some of these convenience features if they are tailored toward your specific needs. Sometimes, a smaller home is better as it is less to maintain year to year. Others may prefer a larger home with more bedrooms and living space. Likewise, some people may find a smaller, more affordable home that allows them to use it more often and not rent. You should plan out your needs and wants as they line up with your budget prior to starting the home search.
Location
Location is key in the world of real estate. There are many different locations on LBI, both in the different towns and in the proximity to the beach and the bay. Each location will offer something different and have its own price point. Just as is the case with size and budget, make sure to discuss your wants and needs pertain to your budget to see the best balance for you.
