P R O P E R T Y:
This coveted direct ocean compound has a prestigious South Ocean Boulevard address and 151 feet of glorious ocean frontage. Over 546 feet deep and encompassing nearly two acres, this gently sloping lot is the largest direct oceanfront property in the Estates Section of Highland Beach.
Privacy is a given here, thanks to the sheer size of the palatial grounds and a low hedge of seagrape trees above the protective dune. The seaside lawn is ideal for a friendly game of touch football or croquet. Just steps away, down the boardwalk path through seagrapes & sea oats, is a secluded white-sand beach that is a favorite of shore birds and nesting sea turtles. With 2.9 miles of pristine, secluded shoreline, Highland Beach has one of the few dog-friendly beaches on the entire Gold Coast. Whether the charming ranch-style home is retained or new construction is preferred, the exquisite natural beauty of this property will endure.
R E S I D E N C E:
A graceful balustrade surrounds the front terrace and adjoining pool deck of this oceanfront home, welcoming residents and guests to a resort lifestyle that begins outside the front door. Once inside, sweeping ocean views and casual comfort prevail.
The light-filled main house has four bedrooms and four baths, a dramatic ocean-view living room, an enclosed "lanai room" that opens to the pool, a huge formal dining room and correspondingly large cook's kitchen and butler's pantry. The interior's easy flow open floor plan is perfect for entertaining. Off the living room, a generous loggia and cascading patios set the stage for splendid seaside galas.
Delightful details include vaulted ceilings and four fireplaces. Clear cypress wood is featured in rafters, louvered cabinet doors, wall paneling and elaborate ceilings, adding a distinctive character to the home. Plentiful storage adds to the livability.
A winding circular drive provides abundant parking and leads to the detached two-car garage with guest house. The spacious garage apartment includes a bedroom, full bath, living room and kitchen assuring a pleasant stay for guests or staff.
L O C A T I O N:
Midway between Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale, picturesque Highland Beach is an exclusive seaside community adjacent to Boca Raton's northeast shoreline. Extraordinary views, tropical breezes and natural protection from the sea are afforded by the barrier island's uncommonly high coastal dune, for which the town was named. Residents enjoy small town amenities, as well as nearby restaurants, galleries, museums, sporting events, world class shopping and a jetport, minutes away. The town¿s new state-of-the-art Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Facility draws from the deep Floridan Aquifer, assuring residents unlimited pure water and freedom from water restrictions, even in drought conditions.
