You're not right. You have neglected to consider the impact of tides, because the 1cm rise in average sea level is not evenly distributed.

Which means it also has to be less in some places, and those places would be slightly more attractive. So use that projected tidal value if you want when weighing your decision. Factor in stronger storms if you want as well.
Ocean front property is so expensive that if you do that and add the cost of raising your construction on stilts and/or raising the land to compensate, it barely makes a difference.
