Description
Walk to Sunset Beach. Fifth house from the Gulf. Custom builder-occupied home constructed in 2001. Home underwent an extensive $500,000 renovation in 2022, with a new $145,000 patio/pool added in 2024. Upgrades include new roof; new mechanicals (AC, water heater, water softener, double-filtration system); new LVP flooring throughout (tile in bathrooms); new custom blinds; fully renovated and expanded kitchen and baths; and all new exterior and interior doors and closets. Kitchen and master bath won 1st place NAHB Design Awards in 2022. Home sits on a double lot. Expansive 45x19 Great Room. Completely new kitchen including custom cabinetry and high-end granite, with two islands and two custom built-in pantries. Adjacent laundry/utility room includes a second full sized refrigerator, new (2022) LG large capacity stackable washer/dryer, and custom storage area. New (2022) water heater and water softener were replaced with an upgraded 80 gallon water heater, water softener, and double filtration system in December 2024. Two adjacent open spaces as you enter the home can be used for formal dining and living rooms (currently used as two offices). The left side of the home, accessible through a custom pocket door, includes three bedrooms and fully renovated custom bath. 16' high soaring ceilings with architectural cutouts and plant shelves throughout the home, including bedrooms and bathrooms. The 19x17 master suite includes an 8x10 walk-in closet and high-end (award winning) custom bathroom. Everything brand new, including a walk-in 6x12 wetroom with deep soaking tub and two shower heads. Two custom rear doors (one on each side of the fireplace) exit onto a new (2024) raised patio with lower-level 11x20 saltwater exercise pool (including electric ‘heater/chiller’ power pump and LED color lighting). Area is completely screened, with two exit doors and surrounding landscaping. Front patio is fully screened with upgraded epoxy flooring. Beautifully landscaped front yard. The 2-car garage has high ceilings and custom epoxy flooring. Garage door opener replaced in 2024. As noted, Sunset Beach, (1/2 mile away) and Fred Howard Beach is a 5 minute drive. The home sits on a double slab, which helps protect it during hurricane season (including 2024 Helene which had a 6.5' storm surge). This two-owner home -- custom builder/owner (2001-2021) and current owner (2022-2025) -- is a rare find. List price reflects a significant reduction below actual (2022-2024) $1.3 Million Seller investment.
