Property Description

Some homes check all the boxes---this one raises the bar. Just one block from the ocean in the exclusive gated community of Seaside Plantation in Tilghman Estates, this fully furnished custom-built Mediterranean-style raised beach home offers a rare combination of luxury, craftsmanship, and timeless coastal living that's nearly impossible to duplicate. Originally built as the builder's personal residence, you'll find everything in this home is top-of-the-line because it was never intended to be an ordinary spec home. From its impressive 6-inch steel-reinforced concrete construction, tile roof, and stucco exterior to the custom finishes throughout, every detail was chosen for lasting quality, strength, and elegance. Step inside to a soaring two-story living room with custom built-ins, a fireplace, and a retractable movie screen with projector, creating the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. The chef's kitchen is designed for those who love to cook and gather, featuring a commercial-grade gas range, double ovens, warming drawer, dual dishwasher drawers, granite countertops, custom two-tone cabinetry, and abundant workspace. The adjacent dining area with custom molding and built-in buffet makes hosting family and friends effortless. The first-floor primary suite feels like a private retreat with tray ceilings, porch access, a spa-inspired bath featuring a Jacuzzi tub, multi-head tiled shower, dual vanities, and a beautifully customized walk-in closet. Step outside and you'll feel like you've arrived at your own private resort. The screened porch, expansive deck, sparkling pool with waterfalls, hot tub, and fully equipped tiki bar create an outdoor living experience that's perfect for quiet mornings, summer afternoons, and unforgettable evenings. Upstairs, a loft recreation area overlooks the main living space and opens to a balcony where you can enjoy ocean views and coastal breezes. Four additional bedrooms with tray ceilings and well-designed shared baths provide plenty of space for family and guests. The ground level adds even more flexibility with tandem garages, a spacious recreation room complete with a wet bar and fireplace, a built-in workspace, and direct access to the backyard oasis. A private elevator, extensive custom millwork, lush professional landscaping, and countless high-end details complete this extraordinary home. Luxury isn't just about finishes---it's about how a home is built. With unmatched construction quality, exceptional design, ocean views, and an unbeatable location just steps from the beach, this is a home that truly stands apart. Opportunities like this rarely come along because homes built to this standard simply cannot be replicated.
