Welcome to your dream coastal retreat, just a few houses from the bay. This stunning 5-bedroom, 3-bath contemporary with an ELEVATOR offers intersecting lagoon views, exceptional craftsmanship, and a true waterfront lifestyle. Situated near the cul-de-sac and only seconds from the mouth of the bay, the home provides effortless access to boating, waterplay, and summertime fun. With approximately 50-55 feet of waterfrontage, a composite dock, vinyl bulkhead with water and electric, a floating dock that stays, and a 220 line already in place for a boat lift, the property is perfectly designed for outdoor enjoyment. Inside, the reverse-living layout showcases an expansive upper-level great room with soaring 13-17 ft ceilings that fill the space with natural light. A gas fireplace adds warmth and charm, while double sliders open onto a fiberglass deck with a retractable awning, creating an easy blend of indoor and outdoor living with gorgeous water views. The beautifully appointed kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a custom tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a huge walk-in pantry. With abundant storage, a breakfast bar, and plenty of room for dining, it's ideal for both everyday living and hosting large gatherings. The upper level also includes a private guest bedroom and full bath for added comfort and convenience. Downstairs, the first-floor master suite is situated for privacy and offers a spacious bath with a soaking tub and shower stall, while three additional bedrooms and another full bath complete the lower level. The upper level is complete with the kitchen, living room, a full bathroom, and the fifth bedroom. Additional highlights include vinyl plank flooring, ceramic tile, plantation shutters upstairs, a whole-house generator, two 50-gallon hot water tanks, two-zone HVAC with newer condensers, and a fully floored attic for storage. Outdoor living is exceptional, featuring a large composite deck on the lower level, a shaded upper deck with an awning, a paver patio surrounded by landscaping, an outdoor shower, and a front shed that stays. A gas line is installed for grilling, and the grill is included. Floating docks will stay and two jet skis are available for sale as well. From its prime waterfront setting to its thoughtful design and high-quality finishes, this home delivers comfort, style, and the coastal lifestyle you've been searching for ready for you to enjoy season after season.
