Offered with high-end furnishings, this home embodies effortless luxury and elevated seaside living. Every element has been thoughtfully designed, beginning with the gourmet chef’s kitchen, featuring commercial-grade appliances, a striking walnut island, quartz countertops, classic subway tile backsplash, and a vintage glass pantry door. Custom white oak flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home, enhancing its warm and timeless coastal design. The open-concept living space is highlighted by wood-beamed ceilings and oversized sliding glass doors that open to a generous porch, creating the perfect setting for indoor-outdoor entertaining. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering a private balcony and spa-inspired bath with dual quartz vanities and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. A secondary primary suite also enjoys its own balcony and coastal-inspired bath with sea-glass tile shower, designer vanity, and sleek modern finishes. Two guest bedrooms connected by a stylish Jack-and-Jill bath, including one with custom built-in bunk, are perfect for hosting family and friends. Laundry is conveniently located on both the upper and lower levels. Designed for ease and comfort, the home is elevator-ready with a shaft already in place, and features an outdoor shower with a changing area—ideal after a day on the sand. A rare pull-through garage with a barn-style door adds both character and functionality. No expense was spared from start to finish, delivering the very finest in beach living. Ideally located just a few blocks from downtown shops and restaurants, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of luxury, location, and coastal lifestyle.
