Property Description
Welcome to an extraordinary custom beach cottage in the coveted East Beach community—designed by Architect Darby McCloskey and masterfully built by John Bliven. This home captures the timeless charm of classic coastal cottages while delivering exceptional craftsmanship, built to hurricane standards and modern comfort at every turn. From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail is unmistakable. An antique brick walkway leads you through a picket-fenced yard to the Tigerwood-floored front porch, where a tongue-and-groove wood ceiling sets the tone for the refined coastal aesthetic found throughout the home. Step through the handcrafted front door—complete with an intricate custom locking system—and you're welcomed by antique heart pine flooring and locally milled pine shiplap that flows seamlessly through every room. The open-concept great room and gourmet kitchen form the heart of the home. Here, high ceilings and a custom antique-brick fireplace with gas logs create an inviting gathering space. The chef's kitchen is equipped with Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Wolf gas range, oven and microwave, a Bosch dishwasher, a pantry, and a generous island with bar seating. Each of the five-and-a-half baths showcases luxury finishes including tile flooring and granite countertops, designer fixtures, and double vanity in the master bathroom. The primary suite offers a spa-like retreat with an expansive 8-foot walk-in shower featuring dual showerheads. A stunning 1870s leaded-glass window graces the foyer, adding a touch of historic artistry.The home's spacious bedrooms feature high ceilings, custom built-ins, and beautifully crafted closets. Even the laundry room impresses with custom cabinetry, granite countertop, and premium appliances. Outdoor living is equally exceptional. The large screened-in back porch—with its masonry wood-burning fireplace—invites year-round enjoyment beneath the glow of surrounding lighted oaks. A detached enclosed garage offers ample storage for a golf cart and beach gear, with a fully finished bonus suite and bath above, echoing the same custom finishes as the main home.Situated on a generous lot adjacent to an island alley, the property enjoys enhanced privacy and a discreet entrance to the garage. This East Beach masterpiece is a rare opportunity to own a truly handcrafted coastal home built to endure and enchant for generations. Schedule your private tour and experience the unmatched quality of this coastal gem.walkthru video https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=yha2KSw89dV
