About this home

Experience unparalleled privacy and refined coastal living in this beautifully updated WaterSound Beach residence, offering a four-bedroom main home, a one-bedroom carriage house above a detached two-car garage, and a serene outdoor courtyard with a heated swimming pool. Perfectly positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac alongside a meandering creek, this home enjoys a rare sense of tranquility in the heart of the community. Thoughtfully enhanced with extensive recent upgrades, the interiors blend timeless design with elevated modern finishes. Light-filled living spaces welcome you with clean lines, custom draperies, and multiple sitting areas anchored by a gas fireplace. The kitchen is both functional and striking, featuring quartz countertops, a dramatic counter-to-ceiling designer backsplash, and a full suite of Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, now complemented by a new ice maker and thoughtfully curated designer hardware. A newly added custom built-in bar with backlit quartzite and under-counter lighting creates a sophisticated focal point for entertaining. Recent enhancements throughout the home include a new roof, new third-floor picture window, teak porch decking, designer lighting and wallpaper, updated plumbing fixtures, and custom California Closets--a highly sought-after upgrade that adds both luxury and functionality. Additional upgrades such as new built-in garage refrigeration, updated fireplaces with modern controls, and curated furnishings--including RH outdoor pieces and designer dining elements--further elevate the home's turnkey appeal. The primary living area opens to a cozy screened porch leading to a private courtyard oasis, complete with a heated pool, outdoor kitchen and grill, fireplace, and TV--all overlooking the serene creek, framed by mature trees that create a lush and private backdrop. Two luxurious primary suites--one on each level--offer exceptional comfort and privacy. The first-floor suite features soaring ceilings, a spacious walk-in closet, and direct access to the pool, while the second-floor suite includes a fireplace and a generous covered porch overlooking the creek. Both offer spa-like bathrooms with dual vanities, soaking tubs, and walk-in showers. Upstairs, a guest suite with a private balcony and ensuite bath complements the third-floor retreat, which includes four custom built-in bunks, a full bath, a secondary living area, wet bar, and gulf views--an ideal space for guests or extended family. The carriage house provides additional flexibility with its own living area, bedroom, full kitchen, office nook, and private bath--perfect for guests or rental income. Located within the gated WaterSound Beach community, south of Scenic Highway 30A, residents enjoy a rare blend of seclusion and access to world-class amenities, including resort-style pools, a fitness center, green spaces, and private boardwalks leading to one of the most pristine stretches of coastline along 30A. Whether as a full-time residence or an investment property, this meticulously upgraded home offers a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional piece of WaterSound Beach.
