This semi-oceanfront second-home showpiece sits high on a beautifully landscaped lot, offering panoramic ocean views from every level—even including the pool area—and just steps to the sand via quick, easy beach access. With 5 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, and over 3,300 square feet of thoughtfully designed interiors, this home has been fully renovated and professionally decorated with high-end details, including Serena & Lily furnishings, custom cabinetry on all levels, bamboo woven wood blinds, custom drapes, and curated lighting throughout. Every bedroom is styled with quality mattresses, luxe bedding, and enjoy private deck access and stunning ocean views. The top-level great room was designed for gathering, featuring an ocean-facing sun deck, a striking modern Napoleon LV 62 linear fireplace with crystal insets, and a built-in bar with dual-zone wine cooler. The chef’s kitchen is a standout with quartzite countertops, a coordinating backsplash, handcrafted Shaw’s ceramic farmhouse sink with on-demand hot water, oversized island with two-sided storage, soft-close drawers, and premium appliances including a 6-burner Wolf range and wood-paneled KitchenAid refrigerator and dishwasher. Retreat to the top-level king primary suite with ocean views, sun deck access, a spa-like bath with dual sinks, and an oversized tiled shower. The mid-level features additional 1 king, 2 queen, and 1 full bed bedrooms—some with Jack & Jill baths, jet tubs & some with floor-to-ceiling tile showers —along with a hallway workspace and laundry closet with a new washer/dryer. On the ground level, a cozy second living space with a wet bar (mini and beverage fridges, dishwasher) opens to the fenced backyard, ideal for entertaining or letting pets roam. Outside, the lifestyle continues with a private concrete pool featuring a rare heating & cooling system, a Vanguard Highlife 6-person saltwater hot tub, a grassy yard, a covered patio with outdoor television, and gorgeous landscaping supported by a private well irrigation system.
