Waterfront Living on McCormick Mile Island with Beach Club Ownership Included! If boating and a south Florida waterfront lifestyle are what you seek, this exclusive 4,550 SF home with 4 bedroom and 4 baths on upscale McCormick Mile Island is the perfect answer. The home is on one of the largest waterfront lots in Ocean Ridge. It has been extensively remodeled and you'll love the interior design from the moment you enter through the front doors. Walk into the marble entryway and see the custom coffered ceilings throughout the home and be impressed with the high, crown molded ceilings and spaciousness of the living room with its gorgeous fireplace. Marvel at the incredible waterway views through the three sets of French doors that lead to the patio, pool and new waterfront dock, and bask in the beautiful natural light that bathes the entire lower level. The home's open floor plan flows beautifully into the new center island gourmet kitchen with countertop range, large prep area and a built-in wine cooler. Extensive granite counters surround the center island with custom cabinetry, top of the line stainless steel appliances, and a kitchen pantry for added storage convenience. A spacious breakfast cove is adjacent to the kitchen, and the raised kitchen counter doubles as a lunch/snack bar and location for hors d' oeuvres and drinks when entertaining in the living room area with its nearby wet bar, or enjoy the luxury of eating in your formal dining room. Whether relaxing in your living room, enjoying more casual time in your family room or working in the privacy of your den/office, this home provides the perfect living space for the entire family. The very large master suite is located on the upper level and features a beautiful custom coffered ceiling, large walk-in closet, and access through French doors to the balcony that overlooks the inlet waterway. The master bath has dual sinks, a Roman tub with Whirlpool spa, a large walk-in shower and expansive storage space in the custom wood cabinetry. The brick-paved outdoor patio has a covered area with a built-in grill, and the custom pool features a hot tub and spa. Walk from the patio down to the 136 feet of private waterfront to your new deep water dock and onto your boat, knowing you are just minutes away from the Boynton Beach Inlet and open waters. Amenities include a large laundry room, 3-car garage, new impact glass windows and doors, redesigned landscaping and total sod replacement as well as gratis membership at the exclusive McCormick Mile Beach Club.

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.
