It features three bedrooms and four bathrooms, including a main-level, universal-design bathroom with a roll-in shower, allowing for easy and dignified access for individuals with mobility challenges. Wide, open layouts and barrier-free entry points—supported by ramps and accessible pathways—make it easy to navigate the home comfortably and safely.

A key highlight of the property is the range of adaptive equipment available to guests. The home includes adjustable beds, a portable Hoyer lift, shower chairs, and other supportive tools that allow individuals with complex medical or physical needs to maintain comfort and independence during their stay. These features eliminate many of the logistical challenges families often face when traveling, transforming what can typically be a stressful experience into one that is restorative and enjoyable.

Beyond the interior, the property continues its commitment to accessibility and comfort outdoors. Guests can enjoy a spacious 500-square-foot deck, a fenced-in yard, and an outdoor shower, all designed with ease of access in mind. The home also provides beach-specific adaptive equipment, including beach chairs and floating beach wheelchairs, allowing individuals to access the sand and even the ocean—experiences that are often inaccessible elsewhere.
