About This Home

As of August 2023

Set on an almost unknown cul de sac sits this architecturally distinct, contemporized Colonial. At the close of Mariner’s Way, on one of the most private spots in the beach area, you are met by this amazingly designed home with bluestone patio & pergola spanning the entire facade. With a multitude of French doors to patios, this property offers indoor/outdoor living like no other! Interestingly, the property features an Old Post address, set down a long drive-secluded, but a literal in town locale. A lifestyle house, it’s begging for pool parties, gatherings & holidays with its amazing entertaining layout. Upon entry, the refreshingly flexible and customized layout is a breath of fresh air. While it offers an open floor plan it still allows for private spaces! The main level boasts an open air dining room, living room and den that could easily be an entertainment room with wet bar & refrigerator....all open to the outdoor patios. The updated white and bright kitchen features high end appliances, Carrera tops, subway backsplash and oversized custom island with seating. The family room with cabinet-grade built-ins, is centered by a stone fireplace accessing the gunite pool via French doors. Upstairs boasts a vaulted ceiling master with luxe bath and walk-in closet and attached office, two guest bedrooms & a full bath. A finished lower level offers another 800+ sqft of walk-out rec room space and sleeping quarters. Special is an understatement-383 Old Post cannot be replicated!
