About This Home

As of April 2022

Just 2 homes from the ocean! Located in the prestigious gated community of Ocean Ridge in North Bethany, this home has been completely re-imagined by the current owners to offer elegance and sophistication with numerous custom upgrades throughout. This amazing oceanside retreat is impressive the moment you enter the dramatic 2 story foyer with shiplap walls and a dynamic chandelier. As you ascend into the open living/dining room area you will notice the amazing fireplace situated on a shiplap wall, and the beautiful wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring throughout. Just beyond is the upgraded kitchen with a breakfast area, and an abundance of windows to enjoy the beautiful natural light and early morning sunshine. Tucked behind the kitchen is a flex room that could easily be used a 6th bedroom, or an office, with a deck off the area. Also on the main level you will find an en-suite bedroom with a gorgeous newly renovated bathroom and down the hall, an updated 1/2 bath for guests. Upstairs, you will find a large primary bedroom with an updated bathroom and a private deck. Also on the 2nd floor are 3 additional bedrooms and 2 fully renovated bathrooms. Plenty of bedrooms for guests and family. On the ground level there is covered parking, 2 outdoor showers, shed/closet, and 1/2 bath, convenient when you come off the beach. The current owners have ordered new furniture for the home which is scheduled to be delivered in the May/June time frame and is included in the price. Ocean Ridge is a sought-after community with outstanding, private beaches and access to a community pool and tennis courts. Please schedule your appointment today, you will be very impressed with this home.
