One of a Kind! Extra-large (Over 3200 sq.ft.) Perfect Family Retreat!
Truly the best of two worlds, luxury and comfort combine seamlessly in this custom high-end, 5-bedroom 4-bath, 2-level, penthouse & second-story gem. From the moment you enter and step beyond the skylight-bright and unique atrium-foyer, you cannot help but exclaim over the spacious, well-appointed and inviting world that awaits your special getaway. This very large, bicoastal beauty combines an upscale, east coast waterfront-aesthetic with casual, comfortable living in the west coast style. With its panoramic ocean views, incredible spaciousness, sophisticated & upscale-yet-comfy amenities, and so much more, this is a property like no other in Mission Beach! Professionally remodeled with no expenses spared, which created a unique and very successful combination of what had originally been 2 separate condominiums into one unbelievable, 2-story home, which is perfect for multiple or extended families. The main living spaces occupy the 3rd floor penthouse, which also includes three of the bedrooms and two of the baths, the master bath having been featured in a 2011 Kitchen and Bath Ideas magazine article shortly after the property was completely renovated. With an oceanfront living room that comfortably seats ten, and with plenty of deep-seating around a gaslit- granite stone fire pit/coffee table on its oceanfront balcony, the penthouse level is sure to captivate every member of your party in the kind of warm, casually elegant embrace that can only result in vacation memories to last a lifetime. Perfect for entertaining or simply relaxing with family and friends, the large, skylit chef’s kitchen and its huge center island with bar seating and adjacent, balcony-front dining room, are sure to become a favorite gathering spot for all. Whether enjoying a meal prepared with the Wolf professional 6-burner range, Dacor microwave oven, and more, or simply toasting another great day together in Mission Beach, the open floor plan with its sweeping ocean views ensures plenty of space for gathering together in relaxed comfort and style. Designer touches abound in the spacious master suite, with its double-door entry, private elevator, king bed, floor-to-ceiling windows capturing ocean views and breezes and embracing a cozy sitting area for two, balcony, custom built-in cabinetry, large flat screen TV and media center. Relax in the sitting area, or truly indulge yourself in the magazine-featured master bath, with its deep soaking tub that rests in a windowed alcove overlooking the beach, and so much more. Offering the luxuries of a hotel combined with the comforts home, it truly doesn’t get any better than this! Another world awaits as you descend the interior staircase to the 2nd floor “pirate suite”, or guest quarters so named for its playful designer touches, reminiscent of old wooden sailing ships and characters of a bygone era. But high-end features and amenities continue to unfold here as well, as you move into the oceanfront living spaces with private balcony, large ocean view sitting room with pop-up TV cabinet, raised table with view for 6. Private spaces on this floor include a second master suite and an additional sleeping room and bath. As in the penthouse, the master bath on this floor was also featured in Bed and Bath Ideas magazine, and both bathrooms on this floor also include spacious walk-in showers with multiple sprayer options, heated towel racks and heated floors. The second sleeping room includes a daybed with trundle. With its stand-alone amenities, the pirate suite is the perfect adjunct solution for larger gatherings of family or close friends. Each floor has its own laundry facilities, and convenient parking divided between a 1-car tandem garage and a 1-car parking pad & outside private elevator that leads up to the master bedroom suite. Both floors of this one-of-a-kind vacation rental boast top of the line amenities and creature comforts throughout, including: Comfortably luxurious oceanfront living at its finest.
