Property Only a block from the ocean, this contemporary beach house is secluded in a beautiful tropical oasis with lush landscaping and privacy fencing. Entered through a gated courtyard, the residence opens westward to the outdoor entertainment area where an airy screened lanai wraps around the sun-splashed pool patio. A charming garden fountain is perched above the stone wall. Residence Themed with a casually elegant seaside feel, this tastefully renovated residence offers a comfortable floor-plan totaling 4,883± square feet with open living areas, four bedrooms, three and-a half baths, impact-glass windows, and a two-bay garage that has an additional room to use as a workshop or storage. Entered from the sunlit glass-walled foyer, the bright open living room is set off by Saturnia marble floors, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, vaulted cedar ceilings, and window walls flowing to the poolside lanai. In the open dining area, a breakfast bar separates the gourmet kitchen equipped with granite counters, a walk-in pantry, and stainless steel appliances including KitchenAid double ovens, a Miele dishwasher, and Jenn-Air range. Glass doors in the open family room also lead to the lanai. In a private front-to-back wing, the spacious master suite opens to its own sitting area on the lanai. Two walk-in closets accompany the suite's luxurious marble-and-granite bath featuring a jetted tub, walk-in shower, and glass doors to a serene walled garden. Also leading to the lanai, another bedroom has an en-suite bath that doubles as the cabana bath. Upstairs, off the balcony hall, two bedrooms are served by a connecting bath.

RSF
Single-Family Residential District
It is the intent of the town commission to introduce and maintain certain elements of human scale to the proportion of single-family residential dwellings within the town. As used in this land development code, human scale refers to architectural elements of construction, such as windows, doors, entryways, ceiling heights, roofs, building envelope and overall height, and the keeping of such elements in an approximate 1:1 relationship with the scale of the human body. This is being done in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the community, and to provide adequate light, air, and separation between buildings. In addition, the town commission is seeking to harmonize the building character within the community by restricting the use of large and overstated, or overbearing building elements.
