Property Description
This spectacular oceanfront retreat, with panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, is the epitome of luxurious coastal elegance. Located in the exclusive community of North Shores, this extraordinary property features floor to ceiling windows with sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean. Gorgeous, scenic and relaxing vistas unfold each and every day from this home's expansive interior and exterior living spaces, in which no detail has been overlooked. At over 6,700 heated square feet, this exceptional residence which was built to Category 5 hurricane standards, features stunning finishes throughout. From the random-width reclaimed oak hardwood floors, gourmet kitchen complete with Viking appliances and 48-inch gas cooktop, Andersen hurricane rated windows and sliders, four fireplaces, custom built-in cabinetry, and elevator servicing all four floors, this home exudes refined coastal luxury. The sun-filled, open floorplan boasts large custom circular windows allowing natural light throughout the first floor, which also has a large sunroom, dining room, owner's suite with full bath, powder room, office and game room. The expansive 1,400 square foot rear deck, with plenty of room for dining al fresco and relaxing outdoors, features an elevated heated infinity pool and spa. The stainless-steel cable wiring railings add a modern coastal touch and the private walkway leads directly to the guarded beach. On the lower level, the oversized conditioned garages offer room for four vehicles with ample storage space (over 2,000 square feet) for all the beach toys and gear. The second-floor features three additional ensuite bedrooms with private full baths, as well as an exercise room which could be used as an additional bedroom with half bath. Two of these bedrooms feature private oceanfront decks. The top level features a gorgeous sitting room, stunning owner's bedroom, fireplace, luxury bath, and outdoor oceanfront deck; this level could also easily function as a private in-law suite. In addition, this home boasts many more unseen upgrades and top-of-the-line construction materials, including full steel framing supporting entire interior, walls, floors and decking, as well as 75 foot deep concrete and steel pilings. A six-foot iron fence surrounds the property with two motorized entry gates to provide peace of mind and security. The community of North Shores features a community pool, tennis courts, a boat marina, and private beach. Within biking and walking distance lies Rehoboth Beach with its stylish shops, gourmet restaurants, healthy outdoor activities, and live entertainment; however, the location of this residence offers unparalleled wildlife watching with dolphin sightings and sea birds making frequent appearances. One of this area's beautiful and protected natural resources, the neighboring Gordon's Pond State Park, boasts drive-on beach access, undeveloped beaches and dunes, along with the entrance to the Breakwater Trail which provides direct biking and walking access to Lewes. This is truly a significant property which is a must-see for anyone searching for a spectacular oceanfront residence in a perfectly located community. $150,000 Incentive for acceptable contract by July 4th, 2019!
