Waterfront Home private pool, dock, hot tub & beach access, best view on island

Enjoy the most spectacular view and sunset on the island here at our new home How Sweet The Sound. Located at the end of a peninsula you will get unique 180 degree water views like no other. Sit by the private pool, go crabbing or fishing from the private dock, launch your kayak, or hang out on one of the many water view balconies the home offers. If you prefer the beach, it is only a short walk to the end of the street to the neighborhood’s private beach access. Owner provides beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrella and beach cart.

How Sweet the Sound is a newer contemporary custom built home featuring 4 floors, all with pristine views of the Intracoastal. The home is perfectly situated in an upscale residential area of single-family homes at the end of the cul-de-sac on a quiet dead-end road.

The ground floor foyer leads to the guest garage and then out to the pool area and dock. There is a kitchen area with a window that opens to the pool and a fridge to keep drinks and snacks cold while everyone hangs out by the pool. The backyard is fenced in and now features a putting green, with putters and golf balls provided for guest use. The private pool is surrounded by lounge chairs for relaxing in the sun. Enjoy cooking out on the gas grill or spend time on the dock fishing. There are also two spacious outdoor showers/changing areas.

The 2nd floor features the Master King bedroom with a large tile walk-in shower, double sinks, water views, TV, desk, and a spacious walk-in closet. Across the hall are two additional bedrooms. One is a King bedroom with water views that shares a bathroom with the other bedroom. The third bedroom features a Queen bed with a bunk bed above it and a pull-out bed below. All bedrooms include TVs.

The 3rd floor features a gorgeous Kitchen/dining area with oversized Electrolux fridge/freezer, gas stove, and stand-alone icemaker. The living area has a huge smart TV for streaming your favorite shows. The living area opens up into the game room area featuring a pool table & sticks. Open all the shades and you will see water everywhere where you look, the sunrise and sunsets are always absolutely stunning.

The 4th floor boasts one more King bedroom, a game room area with foosball table, more water views & double doors opening up to the balcony. A wet bar and couch with pull out bed are next to the last room featuring a twin bed with single trundle underneath. There is a work area desk located in the single bedroom.

Perfect Summer Retreat

Beautiful home, amazing views, perfect location, thoughtful gestures, kind and accomodating host....... We spent 3 amazing weeks in this beautiful home. The house was clean, well-equipped (it had everything we needed and more!) and our host left thoughtful gestures to welcome us - even for our pups! The location was absolutely perfect. The sunrise and sunsets were amazing, the view of the water from every room - we were even blessed to see dolphins swim right in front of the house when the tide was up! We could not have asked for a more perfect vacation! Nina - thank you for all your help and kindness! You were amazing!
