Streamlined modern cottage overlooking Salt Run in Lighthouse Park! Picture Frank Lloyd Wright in a tropical island setting! This newer home thoughtfully incorporates energy-efficient design with high elevation to provide convenient, low-maintenance living on Anastasia Island! NO FLOOD INSURANCE REQUIRED! Sturdy concrete block with blown-in insulation, a 5V Crimp metal roof over the vented attic and a multitude of other energy-efficient principles and materials dramatically reduce utility costs. Light streams through elevated low-e, insulated, hurricane-impact windows, providing views of the trees while maintaining privacy. One glass-paneled and one patio door with top-down, bottom-up shades allow views to suit your moods. The open kitchen with a working island large enough for four to sit as witness your culinary endeavors bridges the living and dining areas. Three matching combination exhaust fan/lights above the smooth glass cook top attractively whisk away cooking odors. Storage is augmented by a pantry, automatic drawer dampers, a microwave oven shelf, an upper cabinet with horizontal lift-up door and tray storage. A compact powder room with space-saving pocket door and the entry closet complete the first floor living space with its easy-care sealed concrete floor set off with crushed coquina. From there take the open stairway of oak treads to the second level, where the sound of footsteps is dampened by cork flooring, except in the bath and utility closet, which have 18" ceramic tile. The front, larger bedroom is accented by a 5'x2' cased opening overlooking the stairs. The hallway utility closet is large enough for the full-capacity, high-efficiency stacked washer and dryer with room left over for stowing cleaning equipment. In the full bath, the 4' shower with comfy pebble-stone floor is stashed compactly behind the wall holding the sink cabinet. Other amenities (such as Kohler ADA-compliant dual-flush toilets) and design elements (one being underground electrical from pole to house) are too numerous to mention here and are listed separately. Drawn to the water? A small beach, boat launch and dock are all nearby! Active lifestyle? There's tennis and biking, too! Please see the PDF attachments under the paperclip icon at the top of this page for additional information. A great deal of thought and planning went into this home; don't miss the visually stunning and efficient results!PLEASE DO NOT DISTURB OCCUPANT!
