As featured in the Garden Club of Virginia's Historic Garden Week and in the Northender Magazine, a rare opportunity presents itself to own this 1950 beach house reimagined as a private resort under recent appraised value. The house was completely renovated in 2012 using only the finest finishes. A wide brick entryway opens to a welcoming 10'x40' all-season sun room with slate floors and views of the outdoor oasis. The entry foyer and adjacent living room and den feature original oak hardwood floors refinished to a warm dark brown. Ceilings are adorned with hand-hewn beams salvaged from an antique barn in Winchester, Virginia.
A libation in the den from the walnut-topped wet bar with built-in refrigerator, or a seat surrounded by brick arches, offer kitchen views with floor-to-ceiling custom cabinets, granite countertops, and a deep farm sink.
The spacious dining room adjacent is centered with a Clarissa Crystal chandelier, coffered ceiling and tall wainscoting.
Additionally, on the first floor is a home gym with sliding doors leading to the outdoor kitchen and pool area. Above the gym is the 4th bedroom - currently being utilized as a movie room. On the second floor of the main house are 3 more generous bedrooms. One bedroom with en-suite bathroom featuring travertine, wainscoting, and a glass enclosed bathtub/shower.
The large master suite has an attached dressing room/closet with built-in cabinetry, and a spa worthy master bathroom.
The entertainer's delight can be found outdoors around the spectacular 16'x32' gunite swimming pool.
Enjoy family meals at a well-appointed outdoor kitchen with metal roof, granite tops, ice maker, refrigerator, sink and gas grill - all prefect for days of entertaining. When night falls, light up the gas fire pit to complete your evening. With the beach and Atlantic Ocean three blocks away, this home offers all of the lifestyle amenities one could ask for in the North End of Virginia Beach. Kelly 757-650-8546 kellyrowe305@gmail.com
