Blaine Steinman's magnificent design is brought to excellence by Mashura Builders. Designer kitchen and bathrooms, soothing hues, and architectural trims set this home apart from most others. The first level's grand entryway and unique raised wainscoting foyer is welcoming and immediately invites you to relax and get into the shore mood. The right hand hallway leads to a spacious ensuite bedroom. To the left is another ensuite bedroom, half bathroom, multi-use utility room (food prep area with sink and refrigerator/pantry/ laundry) and a cheerful family room equipped with beverage and ice centers, wet bar, surround sound and a contemporary linear gas fireplace. Family room, hallway and utility room all have access to the lovely covered patio and Travertine decked pool and hot tub lounging areas. A cabana with a terrazzo topped counter, wet bar and beverage center also has a gas grill garage and natural gas hook up built in as well as a rear storage closet. The outside shower is next to the Utility room entrance. Flat screen hook ups in the cabana, patio and family room makes keeping up with your favorite sport scores easy. Inside, the elegantly curved staircase leads to the second level Great Room with soaring ceilings and dramatic Ship lap paneled fireplace in a delightful natural light setting. On the southeast side, off the dining/living areas, a spacious outdoor deck with an ocean view can easily handle a dining table for ten. The beautifully outfitted kitchen offers an enormous marbled quartz center island, plenty of custom cabinetry, Wolf Subzero appliances, and all the space needed to serve many hungry house guests. There are two more spacious ensuite bedrooms on this level, a half bath and a stylish wet bar and wine fridge that leads to another covered patio overlooking the pool and cabana areas. The third level is home to the master bedroom suite and a 5th ensuite bedroom. The master suite is in a wing of its own with a view of the ocean that you won't even have to get out of bed to see. Take in salt air breezes on the private deck. There's a generous walk in closet/dressing room, laundry closet, and an elegant master bathroom finished with chic Art Deco flair.
