About this home
Completely reimagined and rebuilt in 2025, this exceptional coastal residence offers 6,388 sq ft of architecturally refined living space on a rare .56-acre corner lot just a short walk to Phillips Beach. Designed with the scale and craftsmanship of new construction, the home features custom millwork, coffered ceilings, and expansive open sightlines throughout sun-filled living and dining spaces anchored by a stunning chef’s kitchen. With 6 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, the layout offers remarkable flexibility including a private top-floor suite with living room and office, a fully finished apartment-style lower level with multiple additional sleeping or office options, and bonus space above the garage ideal for studio, fitness, or golf simulator. A separate carriage house provides valuable additional space and future-use potential. Set on a wide, quiet neighborhood street with exceptional yard space, this is a distinctive modern coastal offering of uncommon scale, quality, and presence.
