About This Home

As of July 2025

Welcome to the "Captain's Cottage," a stunning Crescent Beach Association retreat just moments from your exclusive, association-only shoreline. Thoughtfully expanded and refreshed in 2005, this 2,491 sq ft home artfully marries coastal ease with contemporary luxury on a .11-acre lot. Step inside to discover four generous bedrooms and 21/2 baths spread over three bright, open levels. The heart of the home is a spacious family room. The adjoining kitchen features smooth granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances and abundant cabinetry perfect for casual meals or entertaining. Ascend to your private master haven: an elegant en-suite bath, a custom teak walk-in closet, and a private balcony with gentle water views. A versatile third-floor loft-ideal for an office or studio-adds flexibility for today's work-from-home lifestyle. Outside, unwind on the second-story deck complete with a hot tub with water views, or greet the day on the welcoming covered front porch. Practical touches include an oversized two-car attached garage, lower level gym, dedicated off-street parking, and low-maintenance landscaping. As a member of Crescent Beach Association, you and your guests enjoy privileged access to a pristine stretch of private beach just around the corner.
