Nestled on an oversized corner lot just steps from the beach in the highly sought-after East Beach area, this custom home, Renovated in 2013 by renowned architect Ed Cheshire, offers unparalleled luxury and privacy. Spanning one level, the home boasts a bright and airy main living area with vaulted ceilings, skylights, and hardwood floors throughout. The sunroom, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, offers a serene spot to enjoy the surrounding beauty, while built-ins throughout provide ample storage. The chef’s kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream, equipped with a Fisher-Paykel gas range and hood, double ovens, three dishwashers (two stack Fisher-Paykel and one Bosch), and two refrigerators (Fisher-Paykel and Samsung), alongside a second prep kitchen for additional convenience. The oversized primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a private office, abundant storage, and an ensuite bath with double vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate tiled shower. Floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors open directly to the home's walled tropical garden, featuring a breezy cabana and a custom-designed heated pool and spa, resurfaced in 2023. The home offers four additional bedrooms, including a large private suite with its own bath, plus three other bedrooms that share a hall bath. With its seamless blend of privacy, elegance, and beach proximity, this home provides the ultimate sanctuary for both relaxation and entertaining.
