Holly Hill - Beach Property For Sale #5164354

Stunning waterfront home with dock and an incredible detached collectors garage with finished waterfront den and worksop. This custom home has become an iconic landmark here on Riverside Drive due to her stunning good looks and the way that the architect designed the home and it's sprawling southern porches around a unique cluster of five lovely live oaks. Enter the home to find gleaming hardwood floors beneath volume ceilings that hover above wide traditional open rooms positioned for ultimate river views. Upon entering the handsome foyer, an adjacent grand living room with water views doubles as the owners' library with custom built shelving counter sunk into the the surrounding walls... Just across the hall, a wonderful dining room was designed to host a large crowd beneath the volume tray ceiling just above a spectacular bank of windows that frame the views of the Intracoastal waterway. Massive pocket doors open from the dining room into the fabulous great room/kitchen combo where a casual family room with fireplace is ideal for relaxing or entertaining as it becomes one with the custom island kitchen. White shaker cabinets compliment Corian tops to form a long breakfast bar that ends at a beautiful, secondary dining space that opens onto the riverfront covered screened porch that the owners have used as an outdoor living room where consistent water breezes roll across the river from The Atlantic Ocean just a few blocks from the opposite shoreline. The main structure of this home encompasses over 5500 sq ft with a manageable 4965 sq ft of heated and cooled living space where a total of 5 ground floor bedrooms and 3.5 baths welcome the owners and guests. The home was designed with ample sleeping quarters and very large closets, pantries, storage areas and utility room. The gracious master suite features a large luxury bath and a phenomenal walk-in closet with custom built-ins. Two of the guest rooms have been used as home offices or dens in recent years, one of which has a private entrance and big water views. Step out back to the sprawling green lawn to find two gate entries, one on the north side of the home and a second larger entryway off of a quiet neighboring cul-de-sac, Beach Drive. The detached garage space was constructed to hold multiple vehicles with a base floor measurement of 32'x40' accessed by (2) two car garage doors. The air conditioned warehouse style toy box has ceilings high enough to accommodate car lifts. There is a downstairs half bath and upstairs you will find a compete woodworking shop plus the river view lounge and even a ladder that leads to a cupola for commanding views of the river. Custom constructed to the highest standards in 2004 with concrete siding over a super structure in a slab foundation, this property couldn't be reproduced today anywhere near the asking price. Both structures received new roofs and complete gutter systems this year. The home and property have been maintained to high standards and are offered in turn-key, move in condition.
