Sitting on more than a quarter-acre of lush greenery, this beach house is just three homes back from one of the community's most pristine and exclusive private beach accesses available. Recently remodeled with around a million dollars in upgrades, this luxurious home now features an elevator, a workout room off the owner's suite, and a wealth of modern enhancements including a newer roof, expanded parking, an updated exterior kitchen, an exterior gas fireplace, a remodeled kitchen, a home gym, an HVAC system in the garage, and a newer heater for the pool and spa.
Inside, four of the five bathrooms have been remodeled. The first floor includes a second sitting room, two ensuite bedrooms, and a brand-new second kitchen designed for independent guests, including separate laundry room. Access to the grand entrance is via a series of steps leading up to one side of the garage. Once inside, you'll immediately appreciate the spacious layout, with treetop views from the sitting area and den offering unparalleled privacy at the beach, and seamless access through French doors onto the covered balcony. The perfect spot to enjoy sunset drinks with fresh gulf breezes and the occasional sound of the waves.
The heart pine floors and antique beamed ceilings create a harmonious connection with the unspoiled natural environment. The newly upgraded kitchen features modern cabinet finishes, a double oven and warming drawer, two dishwashers, and a full range of appliances, including a chip ice maker. It's perfectly suited for entertaining on a grand scale. The quartz-topped island is an ideal hub for serving cocktails and snacks, while ample space ensures that hosting family and friends is always effortless.
The main-floor owner suite boasts a dramatic cathedral ceiling and an adjoining fitness room with triple-aspect windows offering calming views while you work out. The luxurious master bath features an oversized shower with steam shower, his-and-hers marble vanities, and a generous walk-in closet with laundry. A third-floor bedroom balcony showcases breathtaking views of the surrounding 25 acres of conservation land, with sliding barn doors concealing extra storage and a washer/dryer beneath the apex roof. Additional dry attic storage and a whole-home generator provide added convenience.
Step outside to the rear of the property where you'll find a private pool and spa, perfect for morning dips or relaxation beneath the shady pergola. The newly renovated Retreat Beach Club offers a community pool with superb gulf-front views and access to over 3,000 feet of private beach. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding on nearby Draper Lake, or hiking and biking in nearby Point Washington State Forest. Scenic Highway 30A is lined with local restaurants, ideal for alfresco lunches with friends or a cool treat from Blue Mountain Creamery.
