About This Home

As of August 2025

Live the coastal lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of—just steps from the beach—in this impeccably designed, high-end retreat where every detail has been thoughtfully curated for comfort, ease, and understated luxury. After a morning walk on the beach, enjoy coffee on your bluestone patio under the pergola, surrounded by lush landscaping. Rinse off after a beach day in your cedar outdoor shower, and head inside to a light-filled, elegant interior designed for effortless living. The custom kitchen is the heart of the home, providing a warm and welcoming space to gather. Top-of-the-line appliances make every meal a pleasure, whether you’re cooking for two or hosting a house full. The first-floor primary suite is a private sanctuary, with a spa-like ensuite featuring a quartz-topped floating vanity and luxurious finishes that invite you to unwind. High efficiency systems keep utility costs incredibly low, and flawless craftsmanship throughout reflect the home's exceptional quality. Need extra space for guests, hobbies, or movie nights? The finished lower level offers endless possibilities. And when life calls for practicality, the two-car heated garage, central AC, whole-house Generac generator, and irrigation system are all there to make things simple. Whether you're looking for a year-round home or the ultimate Summer getaway, this home delivers a seamless blend of relaxed coastal charm and modern sophistication—just steps from the shore!
