Positioned on dramatic basalt rock frontage, the home captures sweeping, unobstructed Pacific Ocean views, crashing waves, tide pools, migrating whales, sea lions, brilliant sunsets, and unforgettable winter storms, all from an exceptionally private setting. A striking stone entry leads to the soaring two story great room, where expansive new windows and French doors frame the coastline and fill the home with natural light. The oceanfront patio is thoughtfully positioned for both privacy and protection from northern summer breezes, creating seamless year round indoor outdoor living. The chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with a Thermador 48 inch dual oven range, built-in refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave, anchored by a custom marble prep island and a fully finished walk-in pantry. A whole house water filtration system with reverse osmosis adds everyday refinement. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a fireplace and a spa inspired bath redesigned with a contemporary soaking tub, updated shower tile, designer chandeliers, and Kohler fixtures. The custom primary closet offers tailored cabinetry, display shelving, and elevated lighting. A spacious fitness studio provides flexibility for wellness, hobbies, or guest accommodations. Extensive recent improvements provide exceptional peace of mind and long term value, including a new roof, all new windows, new cedar shake siding, new furnace and hot water heater, whole house natural gas standby generator, encapsulated crawl space and attic, updated fireplaces, new washer and dryer, upgraded sprinkler system, added privacy landscaping, expanded recessed lighting, and refreshed bath hardware and fixtures, including Kohler plumbing appointments throughout. Residents of Little Whale Cove enjoy private beach access, a clubhouse, swimming pool, fitness center, tennis courts, indoor pickleball courts, and scenic walking trails along forested bluffs. Just minutes away, Depoe Bay, renowned as the Whale Watching Capital of the Oregon Coast, offers a charming harbor, celebrated dining, boutique shopping, fishing charters, nearby golf at Salishan, and endless coastal recreation. Refined, extensively upgraded, and magazine worthy in presentation, this luxury oceanfront home offers panoramic views, exceptional privacy, and elevated living in one of the Oregon Coast's most coveted gated communities.
