Rarely does a property offer the perfect trifecta of luxury, privacy, and proven financial performance. Positioned as the southernmost oceanfront estate in the legendary off-road community of Carova Beach, this 2018-built masterpiece sits on a sprawling pie-shaped acre where the wild horses roam free. Bordered by a southern easement for permanent privacy and direct beach access, this home enjoys 127 feet of ocean frontage and a sense of seclusion that is virtually impossible to replicate. Constructed with the coastal environment in mind, the exterior features low-maintenance vinyl shake impression siding and long-lasting PVC trim, ensuring the home remains as pristine as the day it was built. The interior is a masterclass in light and luxury, spanning over 3,023 square feet of living space adorned with engineered hardwood floors, custom tile baths, and abundant natural lighting. The experience begins on the ground level, which serves as an outdoor oasis featuring a large private fiberglass pool, a covered Tiki bar for relaxing after a day in the surf, and dual outside showers. Moving to the mid-level, guests are greeted by a second social hub in the sitting den, complete with a coffee station, wet bar, and wine cooler. This floor houses four spacious bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom. Three of these suites offer direct deck access, while the two oceanfront rooms provide spectacular views of the sunrise over the Atlantic. A soak in the mid-level hot tub offers the perfect conclusion to a day on the 4x4 beaches. The top level serves as the crown jewel of the estate, where a dramatic wall of windows and transoms highlights the tremendous, unobstructed ocean views. The great room features soaring vaulted ceilings, a cozy gas fireplace, and a chef’s kitchen designed for large-scale entertaining. This culinary space is equipped with a massive granite eat-in island, dual stainless steel refrigerators, dual dishwashers, and a separate prep area complete with a commercial-grade icemaker, wet bar, and wine refrigerator. The adjacent screened-in porch and sprawling East deck provide front-row seats to the breaking waves. This level also hosts the fantastic primary owner’s suite, where the bed is perfectly positioned to face a wall of glass overlooking the sea. The suite is rounded out by a walk-in closet and a luxurious dual-vanity bathroom featuring a walk-in tile shower with its own breathtaking ocean view. Beyond the aesthetics, this property is a robust investment located in the coveted X flood zone. It has served as a highly successful vacation rental with impressive income, despite the owners reserving considerable in-season weeks for their own enjoyment. Potential for even higher yields exists for the savvy investor. To provide total peace of mind, a pre-listing home inspection has already been performed and is available for review. With 2026 rental reservations already filling up fast, this meticulously maintained estate is a must-see for anyone seeking the pinnacle of off-road coastal living.

Remarkable Oceanfront lot platted over 1 acre and with 127 feet of ocean frontage. As the southernmost oceanfront lot in Carova Beach, the southeasterly views from this pie lot will be tremendous. Platted easement located on the South side offers additional privacy. HUGE potential for development. New flood maps indicate that most of the lot will be going into the X flood zone!
