Under contract-accepting backup offers. This Beachside, Private, Lushly Landscaped and Canal-Front home is truly Special. Your own “Secret Garden†just blocks from New Smyrna Beach’s No-Drive Beach. This custom built and immaculately maintained home welcomes you via a screened pool area complete with heated pool and spa. From this tranquil space you move into the spacious, open living spaces with high volume ceilings and a wall of windows overlooking the gardens and marsh to the West. Follow the path to find your private dock and the canal streaming through the mangroves out to Mosquito Lagoon and the Intracoastal. Just bring your Paddle Boards and Kayaks. Enjoy morning light streaming through the oaks, or brilliant, sunsets, from one of the several intimate outdoor spaces welcoming you home. Let’s go back inside. Downstairs you find an Open Floor Plan with a Great Room (for living and dining) and Kitchen complete with an island where you can enjoy a meal or just keep the chef company. The kitchen features a built-in oven, induction cooktop, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave. The custom stonework, fireplace, tile flooring and tongue-in-groove paneling create an inviting, timeless and contemporary living space. Downstairs you also find 3 bedrooms and a beautifully renovated bathroom, convenient laundry area and quick access to the over-sized (22’ x 29’) garage. From the gracious living room you ascend the custom staircase to the “Bonus†Loft - perfect for a media room, office, den, art studio or even a 5th bedroom. Next to the loft you’ll find a spacious Primary Suite with walk-in closet and beautifully renovated en-suite bathroom with quartz counter tops, undermounted sink and walk-in shower. Both the Loft and Primary Suite open to a fully screened balcony allowing for amazing cross breezes and afternoon shade. Let’s go back to that Amazing Pool Area! Heated by Natural Gas, the 14’ x 23’ pool and separate jetted spa are surrounded by covered and screened outdoor living areas large enough for all your family and friends. From the Pool area you can directly access one of the West facing patios overlooking the natural gardens, mangroves and pathways to the dock and canal. A second West facing patio offers yet another vantage point from which to take in sunset. Check out the Virtual Tour and Photos to fully appreciate this unique and special property.
