The Perfect Upscale Waterfront Lifestyle in Prestigious and Charming Ocean Ridge! For those seeking a waterfront retreat, this British West Indies inspired home is located on the uniquely quiet Spanish River, just east off the main intracoastal waterway. This protected area is 175' wide and is deep water. This is Florida outdoor living at its best, unparalleled for boaters. Drive onto the brick-paved circular driveway and walk under the live oak canopy, framing the custom speakeasy gate, to enter the home's lush private courtyard pool area. Pass through wood and glass front doors, immediately being welcomed by the open floor plan that provides easy living and gracious free flowing entertaining, bathed in natural light. This 5 bedroom, 4 bath two story home has over 4,600 SF of beautiful space. The main level features hardwoods and marble flooring, base and crown molding, and flows seamlessly from area to area. Centrally featured is a dining room that characterizes the home's intent to welcome its occupants. A double height ceiling gives volume to the family room which has a built-in entertainment center inset for today's large televisions; this is flanked by wood and glass bookshelves and lower cabinets with slide-out rack mounts for the home's entertainment systems. The spacious living room doors and windows connect the courtyard to the waters on either side of the home. There is a secluded office/den that connects to the courtyard, offering closet space for additional storage and skylights above. Opposite the office is the downstairs guest room with a walk in closet and full bath. The saturnia marble floor leads into the kitchen, offering granite counter/prep space, and a breakfast bar. Stainless steel appliances include an induction cooktop, microwave, double oven, and french door refrigerator. Adjacent the kitchen is the custom walk-in pantry with ample shelving, storage, and a drink and wine cooler undercounter. Located on the second floor, the master wing features two east facing walkout balconies overlooking the courtyard. Two separate his and a large walk-in closet for her lead to the oversized bed chamber. The master bath has dual sinks, custom-marble tiled tub, and a large walk-in dual shower with rainhead and steam system. Custom plantation shutters throughout the second-floor spaces provide the necessary privacy, views, and natural light control as required. Also upstairs are the additional bedrooms, all of generous size. Overlooking the water, one features a dedicated full bath and walk-in closet. Another two bedrooms, each with walk in closets share a well-appointed full bath between them with the largest room having its own full width balcony. A dedicated laundry and linens area is also upstairs. Outdoor entertaining is a breeze with a full summer kitchen featuring large work and prep surfaces, two grills, a sink, an ice-maker, a commercial grade stainless refrigeration, and a dishwasher under the beautiful counter-top making this a truly functional and self-sufficient entertaining space. The spacious attached bar accommodates seating for six and is as perfect for serving drinks as it is for casual dining. Spectacularly quiet views of the water, the breezes and the mesmerizing evening sunsets await from the large deck. The dock has 30 and 50 Amp service in place and a Ipe wood decked 12,000lb boat lift. Other fabulous amenities of this home include a large air-conditioned garage with full custom flooring and on wall organization and storage cabinets. The unobtrusive built-in car lift elevates the security of collectible cars and raises the number of garage kept vehicles to 4. This home also contains all of the modern touches including full LED lighting throughout, in ceiling audio distribution, Multizoned HVAC, smoke and CO2 alarms, pool automation, and a commercial grade video doorbell access control system, all 'connected' to the in room displays and your mobile devices. Home ownership includes deeded private beach access and membership to the coveted beachfront gem that is the McCormick Mile Beach Club. Limited to 100 homeowners this is a lovely short walk North to the clubhouse overlooking the beach side of the nearby inlet; or access the public beach in under two minutes on foot by crossing A1A at Hammock Park.

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.
