Reminiscent of architectural homes seen in Dwell magazine, this Scandinavian inspired build is the ideal modern beach house. Located in the desirable “Lost Winds” neighborhood, this truly turnkey home is just minutes from the sand via nearby locals’ favorite beach access. Rebuilt in 2008 & very ahead of its time, the home features modern organic elements including smooth stucco, hardwood fencing, mature Podocarpus hedges, copper accents and standing seam roof. Step inside the light-filled space through a Dutch door to an amazing great room. Several single lite French doors and skylights illuminate the dramatic space. Soaring ceilings ascent nearly two stories - very unique and artistic to the design. Beachy bamboo flooring melds perfect with the smooth stuccoed gas fireplace, drawing elements of the exterior inside. Through Andersen French doors the inside flows seamlessly outside to a private wrapping lanai. Outdoor living can be enjoyed here hunkered in by mature wrapping hedges and custom modern railings. The living room is accentuated by a dialed-in Euro-style kitchen. The kitchen features contemporary cabinetry, ample storage, granite countertops, high-end stainless appliances: Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf built-in stove, and warming drawer. Recessed lighting and custom stainless fixture compliment the dynamic island with bar seating for six. Off the kitchen, a full guest bathroom services a downstairs suite (could be used as first level primary) with custom built-ins and access to the rear zen patio. Space for lounging around a water feature offers a tranquil outdoor living area. No exterior space has been spared with interesting niches and opportunities for potted plants, lounging, art, etc. Upstairs, the primary wing offers vaulted ceilings, sleek custom cabinetry, versatile bonus space (office, gym, retreat, loft, potential third sleeping area with sofa sleeper), an amazing en suite bathroom, his & hers areas with soaking tub, walk-in shower with rain head, private water closet, electric skylight, dual vanities, dual closets (one a true walk-in), built-in storage and conveniently located stackable laundry. The primary bedroom spills out onto a spacious deck, very private, sunny, and elevated.
