Property Description
In a secluded corner of paradise, where the streets are named for seashells and sunlight glistens on the ripples of winding canals, a rare masterpiece awaits. Here, in one of the region's beloved boating communities, life unfolds at the water's edge, graceful, unhurried and framed by beauty at every turn. At quiet end of a private lane, an oversized estate lot commands an exquisite position embraced by wide, intersecting canals that shimmer with tranquility. From dawn to dusk, sweeping water views set the stage for moments of reflection and wonder. It is not uncommon to see dolphins gliding past or boats drifting lazily toward the open Gulf, a gentle reminder this is no ordinary address. Inside, light pours through every window, illuminating an interior that has been wonderfully reimagined for modern living. The living room greets you with soaring vaulted ceilings, a sleek linear fireplace, and a sense of calm sophistication. The kitchen, equally elegant, is a symphony of craftsmanship, custom cabinetry, open shelving, and stainless-steel finishes surrounding a striking island where friends gather and laughter lingers. Each of the five bedrooms tells its own story, private sanctuaries where morning light shimmers on the water and the day begins with quiet inspiration. The four baths, individually designed, offer a touch of artistry and serenity, transforming the everyday into something extraordinary. Beyond the glass, an intimate seating area beneath a beamed, wood-inlaid ceiling opens to the caged pool and sweeping lawn, where tropical breezes carry the scent of salt and sun. At water's edge, your private dock and boat lift promise effortless access to open water, just minutes from adventure, yet a world apart from everything else. This is more than a home, it is a celebration of place and possibility. In a community where charm and character are timeless, finding such a fusion of design, serenity and waterfront prestige is nothing short of extraordinary. Here, coastal living becomes art.
