A Masterpiece Reconstruction in the Heart of LEHYC, Beach Haven
Step into a world where historic charm meets modern luxury in this meticulously reimagined 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence. Nestled in the most coveted section of BH, this stunning 2600 home captivates from the moment you arrive, with its timeless elegance and attention to every detail. Designed by renowned architect Jay Madden and crafted by master builder Chris Baumiller, this property is not just a home, but a testament to the owners vision and the art of living well. From the expansive 50’ open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area to the serene outdoor oasis with a private saltwater pool, every inch of this home exudes sophistication and comfort. Imagine hosting gatherings in your Francie Milano-designed epicurean kitchen, retreating to your luxurious master suite, or enjoying an evening on the enchanting 50' front porch—all just one block from the beach and moments from the vibrant heart of Beach Haven.
The expansive living space is perfect for both grand entertaining and intimate family moments, beautifully framed by pristine 9 ft paneled ceilings, decorative wall coverings, built-in window seats, and wide plank white oak flooring. The living area seamlessly flows into a dining space designed for elegant dinners, which is adjacent to a chef’s dream kitchen. This kitchen is a true culinary haven, featuring a 48" SubZero refrigerator, a 6-burner Wolf stove, double Bosch dishwashers, ice machine, microwave, beverage refrigerator, and a stunning center island with quartz countertops that seats five.
The master suites offer unparalleled luxury with two en-suite bedrooms, custom closets, and spa-like master baths. The second-floor master suite is particularly breathtaking, featuring a cathedral ceiling with original exposed beams that add both character and historical significance. Three additional bedrooms, each with unique architectural details and tailored closets, ensure that every guest feels at home. The four and a half Francie Milano bathrooms are all appointed with high-end Kohler fixtures, elegant tile work, and large showers, adding to the home's exceptional appeal.
Step outside and be transported to an elegant outdoor living space that invites relaxation and entertainment alike. A French door opens to a captivating 50' front porch, a perfect spot for savoring al fresco meals or enjoying a leisurely morning coffee. The porch, with its elegant mahogany flooring and footings for a porch swing, is a retreat where you can unwind and soak in the tranquil surroundings.
The outdoor oasis continues with a private saltwater pool. The pool house/garage opens directly to the water, offering a peaceful retreat after a refreshing swim. A unique outdoor shower with original fixtures adds a charming touch to this idyllic escape.
Surrounding the home, the meticulously designed landscape by Mark Reynolds offers a feast for the senses. The side yard, with lush artificial grass that remains verdant in every season, provides a serene backdrop to the outdoor living spaces and pool area.
