"Sanctuary" is an appropriate name for this elegant home that sits on a quiet street off Ocean Drive. It is nestled in complete privacy on a large parcel overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, a pool, spa, and beautiful plantings. One feels the ocean breezes and warm sunshine off the decks and terraces. The present owners spared no expenses in re-constructing the original structure to create a summer resort lifestyle. The gunite pool, hot tub, outdoor shower, terraces, fireplace, and gardens envelope the home. Designer Shazalynn Cavin-Winfrey worked with the owners to produce this exquisite home with its coastal vibes. Hurricane impact windows offer storm safety. A first floor master suite overlooks the pool. Radiant heat flooring ensures comfort in the bedroom and en-suite.

A large pantry offers additional storage. Floors are bleached oak. Th third floor has two bedrooms, bath, laundry, and a custom built bunk room for young families or grandchildren.

The private beach access is a huge bonus.
