A fully reimagined, turn-key Indian River front property offering privacy, performance, and exceptional waterfront living. A rare direct Indian River waterfront estate offering 100 feet of frontage on . 64 acres in the heart of Melbourne Beach. Oriented west to capture extraordinary sunsets across the wide river basin, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence spans 3,361 square feet of extensively redesigned living space. The home was thoughtfully expanded and structurally improved to maximize light, scale, and water views. A reconfigured open floor plan flows toward 7' x 12' pocketing impact sliders, creating a seamless transition to the waterfront. The 2022 kitchen renovation features Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, an expanded island, custom cabinetry, and elevated finishes suited for both entertaining and everyday living. The primary suite was enlarged to create a true private retreat with a freestanding soaking tub, multi-head shower, quartz counters, custom cabinetry -- with integrated outlets, and a Toto washlet. Impact-rated windows and doors line the rear elevation, enhancing both protection and panoramic views. Outdoor living is deliberate and refined, with over 3,000 square feet of travertine pool decking, a covered lanai overlooking the river, a custom vaulted porch, outdoor hot and cold shower, and private dock with enlarged platform. A new seawall (2023), new roof (2020), full replumbing, 5-ton Trane HVAC with three zones, and hybrid energy-efficient water heater reflect the level of investment behind the walls. This is a structurally upgraded, turn-key waterfront residence designed for elevated coastal living.
