    This one-of-a -kind oceanfront estate masterfully blends architectural elegance, luxury amenities, and outstanding rental income potential. Designed to capture sweeping Atlantic views, the 8-bedroom residence features seven ensuite bedrooms, soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and walls of glass that fill the home with natural light and showcase the ocean from nearly every angle. The top level is a spectacular gathering space, highlighted by a dramatic great room with panoramic views, expansive oceanfront decks, and a chef's kitchen designed for entertaining. Equipped with two ovens, two refrigerators, two dishwashers, a large cooktop, wine cooler, pantry, and curved seating bar, the kitchen easily accommodates large groups. A gas fireplace, workstation, game area, and three ensuite bedrooms—two oceanfront—complete this level. An elevator provides convenient access to all floors.

A standout family suite features built-in Duo bunks, a private bath, adjoining playroom, and ocean views, making it ideal for multi-generational gatherings and maximizing occupancy. The recreation room and sports bar elevate the guest experience with a pool table, bar seating, refrigerator, ice maker, dishwasher, and multiple TVs. An oversized laundry center with double washers and dryers supports high-capacity rentals with ease. Outdoor living rivals a private oceanfront resort. A heated saltwater pool, hot tub overlooking the Atlantic, fitness room, poolside bath, outdoor showers, expansive sun decks, and direct beach access create an unforgettable coastal experience that guests return to year after year. Recent improvements include a 2024 Fortified Roof, 2023 HVAC replacements with transferable warranties, 2024 exterior paint, upgraded Andersen sliders, and a new beach walkway and stairs. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully designed, this distinctive oceanfront retreat offers the rare combination of luxury living, exceptional guest appeal, and strong investment potential.
