Property description
Extraordinary bayfront retreat offering sweeping, unobstructed views of the open bay and the private community marina. Thoughtfully designed with an inverted floor plan, this residence maximizes its stunning vistas from every room. The impressive great room features soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a sleek gas fireplace framed by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone surround. The open layout flows effortlessly into the dining and kitchen areas—perfect for entertaining or relaxed coastal living. The kitchen showcases quartz countertops, an expansive center island with seating, crisp white cabinetry, a beautifully tiled backsplash, and premium stainless steel appliances. Sliding glass doors lead to an oversized sunroom that serves as an inviting second living space with panoramic water views. Also on this upper level, the primary suite is a serene retreat with a luxurious spa-like bath featuring dual sinks, a jetted tub, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. The middle level hosts four spacious bedrooms—two with private en suite baths and two connected by a stylish Jack and Jill bath—providing comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. Completely renovated with fine finishes and thoughtful details throughout, this exceptional home offers modern conveniences including an elevator, over sized garage with an office, hurricane shutters, solar panels, and a whole-house generator. Expansive wraparound porches on every level and a large rooftop deck invite you to relax and savor the coastal breeze. Located in a prestigious gated bayfront community in North Bethany with amenities including a deep-water marina, pool, and tennis courts. Spend the day boating with direct access to the Indian River Inlet or enjoy the beach—just a short bike ride away—without crossing Route One.
