Serenity awaits on 36 acres of lush forest, just 7 miles from the beach. This extraordinary property features a 4,880-square-foot main residence and a 2,000-square-foot garage with a full apartment, offering a rare combination of privacy, space, and development potential. A private 700-foot driveway leads to the beautifully landscaped grounds, complete with mature trees, gardens, and even a charming frog pond. Surrounded by nature, the property is ideal for those seeking a peaceful retreat or buyers interested in further developing the land. The pristine main home is thoughtfully constructed and filled with natural light from oversized windows throughout. The first floor features 10-foot ceilings, hardwood and tile flooring, a private office, an expansive living room, and a formal dining room large enough to host 20 guests comfortably. The oversized kitchen is designed for entertaining, while the inviting family room includes a cozy wood-burning stove. A full bath and a stunning 52-foot interior three-season porch provide panoramic views of the gardens, woods, pond, and surrounding wildlife. Upstairs, you’ll find an extra-wide hallway with 9-foot ceilings, five spacious bedrooms, and three additional full baths. The luxurious primary suite includes a walk-in closet with dressing area, a walk-in shower, and a soaking tub. An additional flexible-use room on the second floor is perfect for an art studio, craft room, or private workspace. Abundant storage and oversized walk-in closets can be found throughout the home. Connected to the main residence by a covered breezeway, the detached garage/pool barn/apartment offers exceptional versatility. The first level includes a full bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen, along with ample garage space for vintage cars, recreational vehicles, or equipment storage. The second level provides even more flexible space for storage, a game room, additional office, or extra sleeping quarters. This private estate is just minutes from beaches, local peach and blueberry farms, farmers markets, shopping, and restaurants—offering the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience.
