Sun, Sand, and Style: Modern Beach Cottage: Newly built in 2017 and offering a coastal contemporary vibe, this high-end home just moments from the ocean in Leucadia offers a modern twist on beach-close living. Wrapped in stylish board-and-batten siding, the home is introduced by a bright red front door that opens to a spacious two-level interior of approximately 1,963 square feet. Flowing via glass accordion doors to a large deck that is primed for outdoor entertaining, the main floor showcases and open-concept great room, dining room and kitchen area complete with high ceilings and wide-plank white oak wood flooring. Arranged for both easy meal prep and fabulous entertaining, the open kitchen shines with top-tier stainless steel appliances, a large island for casual meals, white Shaker cabinetry, a full tile backsplash and a pantry. Three bedrooms and two- and one-half baths include a boutique hotel-caliber primary suite with a vaulted ceiling, intimate balcony, versatile retreat, frameless shower enclosure, a soaking tub, two sinks and a walk-in closet. Only the best finishes and craftsmanship are on display throughout the residence, which includes a laundry room and an attached two-car garage. The location makes it easy to explore Beacon’s Beach, coffee shops, restaurants and shops.
