Welcome to your private oceanfront sanctuary on the coveted and gated Figure 8 Island—where timeless luxury meets the rhythm of the sea. As you arrive, a double driveway and dual garage offer a grand entrance, framed by rich ipe wood decking and majestic 150-year-old wooden doors that set the tone for the craftsmanship within.
Step inside to discover sun-kissed Saltillo tile floors and a seamless flow between the expansive entertaining areas, dining space, and chef's kitchen—all with uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean. The kitchen is a true culinary masterpiece, featuring a one-of-a-kind built-in 48'' Liebherr refrigerator/freezer, Bosch dishwasher, Viking double oven, gas cooktop, granite countertops, and custom cabinetry with built-ins at every turn.
This exquisite home boasts 5 ocean-facing bedrooms and a bonus bunk-bed room, each with its own ensuite bath and direct access to the beachfront deck—an ideal setup for hosting guests in privacy and comfort.
An elevator ensures effortless access to each level, while a striking spiral staircase leads to the Belvedere Room—perched as one of the highest viewpoints on the island. From here, enjoy breathtaking 360-degree views of the ocean, the intracoastal, and the lush expanse of Figure 8 Island.
Architectural steel beams add a touch of industrial elegance on the third and fourth floors, reinforcing the home's strength and style. Although this property has remained untouched by flooding since its current ownership began in 2015, recent CAMA-approved beach fortifications—such as sandbag installations—provide added peace of mind and long-term security. The home is being sold fully furnished with handpicked furniture and decor throughout.
This is more than a beach house—it's an oceanfront legacy, a retreat of rare distinction, and one of the finest residences available on Figure 8 Island.
