About This Home
This truly beautiful, restored, yet timeless seaside Mediterranean Estate is bound to captivate and transport you back to the elegance and grandeur of The Gatsby Era. Originally commissioned by a publishing magnate and designed by an award winning architect, this restored home w/ central A/C sits on a lush, private half acre+ lot with mature landscaping and new circular drive. Fresh cream colored stucco, newer terra cotta clay tile roof, expansive new blue stone patio and terrace evoke a year round grand summer feel. Inside, 9'+ ceilings, period Mahogany millwork, and coffered ceilings continue to impress. The private hedge lined yard is a true sanctuary, yet you are just 1/2 mile to the ocean,1928 Beach Club, popular beaches, and the conveniences of Vinnin Square, including Whole Foods. This timeless treasure with a recent refresh offers a seamless blend of coastal tranquility and urban connectivity. A rare legacy property for the most discerning of buyers!
