Description

Experience beachside living in a fully-renovated and unusually expansive Dutch colonial with a matching guest cottage on exclusive East Avenue. Ownership rights encompass the 75 feet of beach fronting the property, as well as riparian rights extending 600 feet into the water. Ideally located to the center of town, this thoughtfully curated home offers over 5,000 square feet of Victorian-era charm accented throughout with elegant modern finishes. A wheelchair-accessible elevator provides access to the driveway, main and second levels. The main level features sweeping ocean views from the living area and from the state-of-the-art chef's kitchen equipped with: commercial-grade appliances; molded concrete counters that indistinguishably mimic wood and stone; a 48'' wide double-faucet

Supplements: sink with incorporated drainboards; an island with prep sink; custom cherry-wood cabinetry; and an ample peninsula/breakfast bar. The open, extensive living and dining areas provide spacious accommodation and an incorporated sound system for entertaining an abundance of family and friends. Off of the main floor, a massive Trex deck bridging the main house and cottage offers sumptuous views of and access to the beach and ocean, and includes its own incorporated outdoor sound system and natural gas service for your grill. The second floor has six bedrooms and three full baths. Both east facing bedrooms feature Andersen French doors - with roll-down security shutters - that open onto a sizeable deck with unobstructed panoramic beach and ocean views. Three of the remaining bedrooms open onto the west deck, ideal for catching the afternoon sun. Both decks are newly re-surfaced with fiberglass and fresh gel coats. The third floor owner's suite has stunning ocean views, handcrafted built-in dressers, and a luxurious five piece en suite bath. Additional amenities include: the charming guest cottage with kitchen, laundry, another full bath, incorporated sound system, and finishes that match the main house; a two-car garage; brand new cedar shake siding on all three structures; and heavy gauge, imperishable copper roofing, all of which heighten the value of this exceptionally rare property. Rinse off from your swim in the outside shower on the beach. There is additional off-street parking for at least five cars.
