This custom home is in the perfect location! It is just 3 homes off the beach on a boardwalk, on a dead-end street, but still parallels rosemary avenue and is steps to main street and the western green. There are no streets to cross to get to the beach! Enter the front door from the boardwalk to the beach into a foyer where you notice that the interior of this home is almost all wood from the pecky cypress ceilings, pine walls and reclaimed wood floors. The first level has travertine floors that are durable and easy to handle the sand's wear & tear. The master suite is on the first floor and is adjacent to a private courtyard between the main home and the carriage house above the 2 car garage. There are so many details and fabulous fixtures & upgrades throughout the home! The master bath has dual marble vessels on vanities with custom contemporary copper fixtures, an oriental soaking tub, separate travertine walk-in shower with bench, walk-in closet. The laundry room has miele washer & dryer and is in the hallway, which is lined with storage closets. There is another bedroom on the first floor with built in single beds and an en suite bath. A beautiful circular staircase with floor-to-ceiling windows to the living area containing dining, kitchen & living spaces. The dining space has an ice maker and wine refrigerator adjacent and a private balcony so you can watch the activity on water street & main street. The gourmet kitchen is so fabulous! It has a copper breakfast bar overlooking a granite chopping station with sink adjacent to a wolf 6 burner gas range and a gaggenau steamer. 2 wooden front sub-zero refrigerators anchor the wall where a walk-in pantry is discreetly hidden. A miele dishwasher and built-in coffee station add to the list that make this kitchen a chef's dream. The living room has double french doors that open onto a shuttered porch that overlooks the beach boardwalk so it can be opened up to let the gulf breezes blow through. The 3rd floor of the home has built-in bunks, one double and one single, with storage underneath. There is a bedroom with en suite bath that has a wonderful soaking tub. A bonus office/nanny's room has built-in workspace and a private balcony with boardwalk gulf views. All of this, and then there's the carriage house across the courtyard, above the 2 car garage. A separate bedroom has access to a wrap-around porch so you can see what's going on in ''town'' or see the gulf. The kitchen is stainless and has the same upgraded appliances that the main house features. The living area has a sleeper sofa to maximize sleeping capacity. A beautiful wooden circular staircase leads to 'kid heaven' where there's lots of room to play and 3 built-in bunks. This will be a great rental property and the carriage house can sleep 6+.
