Your dream come true — all the joy and ease of beach living with the safety and security of newer construction. Located steps from the sand, with shimmering water views, this stunning home held up extremely well, as it was built to, in Hurricane Helene and Milton! A bright and beautiful living area invites you into the home, featuring crown moulding and high ceilings. The spacious kitchen overlooks the living and dining rooms, providing ample space for large gatherings. It is the heart of the second story, boasting a Sub-Zero Refrigerator, and premium Wolf range, oven, and microwave. This "social" level also includes a separate half-bathroom designated for guests. An extended kitchen with custom cabinetry and high-end fixtures, including a sink “hot shot” which offers instant boiling water, has all the extra storage that we always wish we had! Gorgeous views pour in from the balconies on each floor, all providing un-obscured views up and down the Intracoastal Waterways. Moving upstairs, you'll find the primary bedroom and its large, en-suite primary bathroom. There are two generous walk-in closets — one is currently being used as an office space, stretching 7 ft by 5 ft. The other walk-in closet is even larger, 8.5 ft by 4.5 ft! The primary bathroom features dual-sinks and an oversized shower. The third-level balcony is accessed from the primary bedroom, providing the promise of natural light to pour in each day. Down the hall, you'll find the second bedroom, also with its own en-suite bathroom. There are built-in shelves that provide an abundance of storage for books, games, knick-knacks, whatever your heart desires! The closets in both bedrooms also offer custom built-in shelving and drawers. A large hallway linen closet and the tidy laundry room are in the perfect location on the third floor to make the task of laundry as simple as can be! One more level up, you'll find the third bedroom — or office, library, workout room, you name it! This room can be used in so many ways! Need an in-home office that feels separate from home? Save your work for the upstairs level and leave it behind when you go downstairs! Need a quiet retreat to gather your thoughts? This level houses the most private balcony in the entire home. With expansive space and its own en-suite bathroom, you can transform this level into whatever you need it to be! There are luxury hardwood floors throughout, wood-look ceramic tile in the bathrooms and laundry room, as well as tastefully painted hardwood staircases. The newly-painted large garage is big enough to comfortably house three vehicles, while still leaving plenty of room for storage. A brand-new water-softener and whole-house filtration system was just installed. There are 2 years left on the HVAC warranty, and the unit just had a new coil installed. Every floor is accessible from a built-in elevator, so mobility is never an issue. With breath-taking, 180-degree views of the Intracoastal Waterways, the opportunity to purchase a private boat slip, and a walk across the street to the sugar sand beaches of the idyllic Indian Shores community, this home offers what Florida-living is all about!
