Steps from the Sand: A Warm Contemporary Beachside Retreat with Ocean Views

Welcome to a stunning, custom-built coastal home just steps from the beach and a short walk to downtown. Designed by award-winning builder Michael Cleland of Surfside Properties, Inc., this modern single-family residence blends luxury, functionality, and elegant design—all with sweeping ocean and white water views.

This exceptional home offers 5 spacious bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite bathroom, plus a luxurious steam bath in the basement and two additional powder rooms for guests. Four of the bedrooms include generous walk-in closets, making comfort and storage effortless.

Enjoy the outdoors from four expansive decks and a private street-level patio—all perfect for entertaining or relaxing while taking in the ocean breeze. Three decks are equipped with built-in heaters, creating cozy spaces to enjoy year-round.

A four-stop elevator and a hydraulic car lift lead to a rare 4-to-5 car garage, ideal for collectors or families with multiple vehicles. Premium “Kobe & Kolbe” windows and “La Cantina” sliding doors allow natural light to fill the home, while select walnut hardwood flooring adds warmth and sophistication throughout the top three floors.

This home is outfitted with advanced technology, including a high-velocity heating and cooling system, Crestron full home automation, integrated audio, automated lighting, and a security system with surveillance and recording. The basement is wired and ready for a media room to complete your luxury lifestyle experience.

At the heart of the home is a chef’s dream kitchen featuring a 60-inch stainless Wolf range with dual ovens and a custom hood, a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, beverage fridge, pot filler, and custom Calcutta mosaic backsplash. The kitchen opens to both a formal dining area and a cozy breakfast nook, ideal for family meals or entertaining guests.

Two spacious recreation rooms—each with their own bar (one wet, one dry)—offer plenty of space for relaxing or hosting. Each bar includes a built-in beverage refrigerator for added convenience.

Throughout the home, high-end finishes include marble, stone, and tile from prestigious designers like Walker Zanger. Three fireplaces provide warmth and ambiance across multiple living spaces, rounding out this extraordinary home.

This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle, perfectly situated at the intersection of beachside serenity and downtown convenience. A truly exceptional property by the sea.
