Luxury living is yours in this $2.5M home

If you ever want to do something besides enjoying the magnificent views of the Intracoastal Waterway that this Mediterranean-style estate has to offer, why not step outside for a swim in the pool, a game of beach volleyball or a bit of marshmallow roasting in the custom fire pit?

 “There’s just no better way to enjoy the Florida lifestyle,’’ said Realtor Nick Sousa. “This is truly an amazing piece of real estate that rarely comes on the market.”

Sitting on nearly one-and-a-half acres in the Palm Coast community of Island Estates, this dream home has 235 feet of Intracoastal waterfront in the backyard — one of the largest frontages in this desirable community, added Sousa, of Adams, Cameron & Co. Realtors.

Inside this beauty, a large foyer leads into the opulent sitting area with 25-foot ceilings and views of the newly resurfaced salt-water pool.

“The second you walk into the home, you see the deep-blue pool and Intracoastal right behind it,” exclaimed Sousa. “You’re sure to fall in love.”

Boasting five bedrooms, five-and-a-half baths, a full office and a custom-designed open kitchen, it offers an indoor-outdoor floor plan with two collapsible 16-foot sliding doors.

A newly added marble staircase leads to the second floor, which holds a sitting area with a balcony overlooking the front of the home and a large bonus room with balcony overlooking the pool. An upstairs bedroom with a nearly 360-square-foot steam shower was added after the initial build and is not counted on the Flagler Property Appraisers website, making this home about 6,300 square feet, Sousa explained.
