This heavy timber construction home is uniquely positioned in the stunning Whale Beach section of Strathmere with sweeping water views of the ocean, bay, and preserved wetlands that frame the property. On the lower level you will find three well-appointed bedrooms, 2 full baths, laundry room, and a sizable family room. Heading up to the main living level the open living concept is perfected with a vaulted shiplap ceiling, exposed beams, and ample windows flooding the space with natural light. The custom kitchen includes an island complete with breakfast bar, double Bosch wall oven, Sub-Zero undercounter wine storage, and abundant pantry closet. The master bedroom completes this level with its enormous walk-in shower, custom closet, and direct access to the Oceanfront deck. Additional highlights include: a three-stop elevator, fenced in backyard with space for private basketball or pickle ball court, multi-car garage with attached workshop, & more. 2500 Commonwealth is the perfect blend of an Outer Banks-esque location coupled with the charm of the Jersey Shore.
