Located in the sought-after West Beach area of Gulf Shores sits this fantastic beach chalet called Life After Five. Start each day with a cup of coffee and spot dolphins from the sunny deck or spend time soaking up the sun. You will love the unobstructed views with nothing but sand between the home and the Gulf. The colorful evening sunsets are something you don’t want to miss! Imagine being able to take a few steps down the stairs and fish year-round from this stellar beachfront home!
Inside this beautiful home is an open living area with floor-to-ceiling windows that bring unbeatable views inside. The decorative fireplace and gorgeous ceilings will make you think you are in a ski chalet in the mountains but in reality, you are sitting on the sugary sands of Gulf Shores! The living area also features plenty of comfortable seating and a large LCD TV. This open space has a dining area with a table for 8 and additional bar seating for 4. The kitchen offers gulf views, cooking essentials, and plenty of counter space.
Two of the homes' bedrooms are located on the first floor as well as a full bathroom and laundry. Bedroom #2 sleeps 2 people in a queen-size bed and has a mounted LCD TV. Bedroom #3 will sleep up to 5 people in 2 queen beds and a daybed, this room also has a mounted TV.
