Back on Market at no fault of the seller. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, this home blends timeless craftsmanship with modern upgrades. A newly remodeled kitchen in 2023 sets the stage for effortless entertaining, while new fiberglass doors throughout the home in 2013, a new metal roof in 2010, and Azek decks added in 2011 ensure lasting durability. The widow's walk rebuild in 2025, and all-new shutters on the south facade in 2023 add both charm and resilience. Recent system upgrades include new exterior AC condensers in 2022, a new electrical panel in 2025 bringing the home up to current code, and new Carrier 14 SEER furnaces and AC in 2010. A bunk room addition in 2016 maximizes space, while exterior enhancements like a new lighting system in 2016 and rebuilt exterior stairs in 2013 elevate both form and function. Even the carport was covered with a metal roof in 2010, designed with practicality in mind. As the first spec home in Caribe, this residence has deep roots in the community. Developed by Jim Adams, designed by renowned architect Tom Christ, and built by general contractor Ronnie Willis, it was constructed with unwavering integrity -- 'like a bomb shelter, ' as they put it. The 12-14 foot high utility room stands as a testament to its solid construction, weathering time and nature with ease. The home overlooks the neighborhood fountained lake and the private beach access boardwalk is located directly across from the home's front door on Rue Caribe, making it an easy walk to the beach. Nestled south of 98 in a gated community, this property is ideal as a primary home, second home or vacation rental. Caribe also has two community pools for its owners and guests. The property has never been rented, original owners, and no structural issues -- just decades of care, thoughtful upgrades, and a home built to stand the test of time.
