Property Description

Rare Dual-Waterfront Coastal Retreat in Bethune Beach! Experience the best of Florida's waterfront lifestyle in one of Bethune Beach's most desirable locations. This exceptional coastal residence offers the rare combination of direct frontage on a navigable saltwater lagoon with access to the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean just 200 feet away via the neighborhood beach walkover. Spend your days exploring miles of pristine shoreline, tidal pools, world-class surfing, or launching a kayak, canoe, or paddleboard directly from your private dock. Constructed of durable concrete block pillars, slab, wood and stucco with impact-resistant windows, this thoughtfully designed three-story home combines quality construction with exceptional coastal living. The spectacular third-floor primary suite is a private waterfront sanctuary featuring sliding glass doors opening to an expansive balcony overlooking the lagoon. Wake each morning to breathtaking sunrises and tranquil water views. T The suite includes a wet bar with beverage refrigerator, a spacious walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired ensuite bath with dual vanities and an oversized walk-in shower, creating the perfect owner's retreat. The second floor is the heart of the home, offering comfortable guest accommodations and generous indoor and outdoor living spaces. One guest bedroom opens directly onto a large waterfront deck, creating an inviting space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing while enjoying peaceful lagoon views. Shaded by the balcony above, this outdoor living area is the perfect setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, family gatherings, and front-row seats to Florida's spectacular rocket launches. Designed for the ultimate coastal lifestyle, the ground level features a welcoming entry foyer, generous under-stair storage, and an oversized laundry/mud room with space for a washer, dryer, and full-size refrigerator. Extensive covered parking easily accommodates a golf cart, boat, RV, and multiple vehicles, while the covered grilling area, fire pit, and outdoor shower make entertaining after a day on the water effortless. Nature lovers will appreciate being just minutes from the Canaveral National Seashore, one of Florida's most treasured natural preserves, offering unspoiled beaches, outstanding fishing, wildlife viewing, boating, and endless opportunities for outdoor recreation. Conveniently located approximately one hour from Orlando International Airport, Disney, and Orlando's renowned attractions, with additional nearby commercial airports and New Smyrna Beach Municipal Airport for private aviation. Whether you're launching a kayak from your private dock, cruising the navigable waterways to the Intracoastal, watching dolphins and manatees glide through the lagoon, strolling to the beach for sunrise walks, or ending the day with unforgettable rocket launches from your waterfront deck, this extraordinary property delivers a lifestyle few homes can offer. Adding to its appeal, the property allows 30-day minimum vacation rentals, providing flexibility for seasonal enjoyment or investment potential. Opportunities to own a home offering both navigable waterfront access and immediate proximity to the Atlantic Ocean are exceptionally rare. This is Florida coastal living at its finest.
