About This Home

Avalon’s Highest & Most Iconic Oceanfront Offering. Reintroduced for the Spring market in the coveted High Dunes of Avalon, this extraordinary 7,240 sq. ft. oceanfront estate occupies one of only 11 oversized dune parcels on the island and stands at the highest natural elevation in Avalon. Elevated approximately 30 feet above surrounding rooftops, this is the only residence in Avalon where you can experience both sunrise over the Atlantic and sunset over the bay without leaving your home. The result is unmatched 360-degree views, extraordinary privacy, and commanding architectural presence. Designed by renowned architect Mark Asher and meticulously constructed by JG Popper Custom Builders, this estate blends fortress-level construction with refined coastal modern design.
