One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome home to your exclusive, NEVER FLOODED, waterfront oasis! Located in the serene area of Island Estates, this home offers breathtaking 180 degree Intracoastal views. Built 11+ feet above the floodplain with solid block construction in 1982, the home was expanded in 2000 with a two story addition, reinforced by 13 steel beams driven 30 feet into bedrock for lasting durability. This property was built to withstand any storm, and it has! Inside, the open yet well defined layout features a central kitchen, two living areas, and formal and informal dining spaces. On the main floor, you'll find 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. A large wraparound porch allows you to enjoy coffee every morning with a warm breeze and jaw dropping view. A boat lift and car lift cater to enthusiasts, while a sunken wet bar with granite countertops and custom cabinetry enhances entertaining. Floor to ceiling windows on the second floor showcase stunning views, with a second floor balcony positioned for perfect winter sunsets. The views from the second and third floor will truly leave you breathless, and the versatile space on the third floor is exquisite. Whether it's used as an office, a library, or even a yoga/meditation room, you will find stress doesn't stand a chance while you're inside. Dedicated HVAC units on each floor maintain comfort, while a 2018 multi dimensional shingle roof adds longevity. Two wood burning fireplaces provide warmth, and a 15x30 bunker offers flexible space for a workshop, fitness center, or storage. The fully screened pool area, complete with an outdoor culinary corner, seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living. A five minute boat ride leads to Caladesi Island, ranked the fourth best U.S. beach in 2024. The Sand Key Bridge offers direct access to the Gulf of Mexico, with Honeymoon Island, marinas, and premier waterfront dining nearby. A rare combination of luxury, functionality, and prime location, this home is ready to create new memories!
