The primary suite, a private sanctuary, features a breathtaking ocean-view deck, dual baths, and an intimate fireplace. A spacious family room and a versatile loft-style office further elevate the living experience. The poolside guest quarters offer a secluded retreat, while the second residence, built in 1994, offers contemporary coastal design with dual suites, a guest bedroom, a den, and expansive ocean-facing patios.
