Tucked away on over 3 acres of secluded paradise in the center of town and just minutes from the beach, this one of a kind estate is a true sanctuary. Thoughtfully designed and custom built by the current owner, the home blends refined luxury, family friendly function, and storm readiness into one unforgettable property. From the street, a private gated entrance gives little indication of the spectacular retreat that lies within. Once inside, you're welcomed to a sprawling 4,766 sq ft residence featuring 4 bedrooms, 3.3 bathrooms, a 3 car garage, and a wealth of surprises from a custom built tiny home to a fully stocked pond with tree lined privacy and creeks on two sides. Step inside and you'll find details everywhere: a formal living room turned into a gallery space, complete with a custom ''family tree'' mural, and a chef's kitchen built to impress. Highlights include a 6 burner propane range with commercial grade venting, double ovens, pot filler, custom cabinetry, granite counters, a center island, breakfast bar, and even a dedicated coffee station. The first floor also offers special touches, with a private owner's suite designed as a true retreat with dual walk in closets, spa style rainforest shower, soaking tub, and dual vanities. A cleverly hidden office with its own private outside entrance or secret bookcase passageway adds even more character. Entertainment takes center stage with the custom designed Pirate Bar, complete with karaoke, rum barrels, and a built in fish tank showcasing a sunken pirate ship. Upstairs, the excitement continues with a dramatic chandelier lit landing, a cozy sitting area, and a multi level movie theater with a smooth finish projection wall and surround sound. Guest rooms each feature ensuite baths and private balconies overlooking the tranquil grounds. Outdoors, the backyard lives like a personal resort, with a screened entertainment area, full Florida summer kitchen, and picturesque stocked pond. Energy efficiency comes standard, thanks to a heavy gauge metal roof, insulated windows and doors, and foam attic insulation keeping utility costs impressively low. For peace of mind, the home is ready for any storm with a generator hookup and hurricane rated electrical panel. This hidden paradise is more than a home, it's a lifestyle. Whether you envision a private family retreat, or an entertainer's dream estate, the options here are endless.
