    What's special

    The home you've been waiting for! This custom-built home is nestled on a lush, double lot with breathtaking panoramic views of Dillon Creek in the prestigious town of Island Heights. Over 3,000 sqft, 4-5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 60ft dock, almost entirely upgraded interior - this home offers the perfect blend of luxury, functionality, and privacy. The exterior makes a stunning first impression with its architectural design, blending traditional and contemporary elements. A multi-gabled roofline and a copper-topped turret-style entry set the tone, while expansive windows on all sides flood the home with natural light. A curved staircase leads to a covered front porch with classic columns and welcoming sconces. The manicured landscaping and paver driveway and walkway are surrounded by mature trees, enhancing both privacy and curb appeal. Inside, the open-concept first floor has been completely and tastefully renovated. Luxury vinyl plank flooring, recessed lighting, and sunlit interior create a bright and welcoming atmosphere. The two-story living room features 27-foot ceilings with clerestory windows, a gas fireplace with a wood mantel, and symmetrical sliding doors that open to your private backyard oasis. The kitchen is a dream - open concept and fully renovated with a large center island (featuring an inset sink, electric, and breakfast bar), a 48-inch Forno range with double ovens, quartz countertops, handcrafted Zellige tile backsplash, soft-close cabinetry, custom range hood, a coffee bar, walk-in pantry, and a cozy dining nook framed by a bay window overlooking the picturesque water views. Just off the foyer, a light-filled sunroom offers the perfect space for a sitting area, playroom, or home office, while a stylish half bath adds convenience. Downstairs, a lower-level den provides a large family room which can be easily used as a fifth bedroom, designated laundry area, and a full wall of closets for added storage. Upstairs, a cozy window seat midway up the staircase offers a moment of peace with views of your private dock. The spacious primary suite is tucked away for ultimate privacy and features vaulted ceilings, a Palladian window, a large walk-in closet, and a luxurious en-suite bath. The en-suite includes a grand symmetrical entrance with glass-paned French doors, whirlpool tub framed by another Palladian window, his-and-hers vanities, a large tiled shower with a rainfall and handheld head, and a private water closet. On the top floor, you'll find a large balcony overlooking the living room below, a curved bay window with a deep sill -perfect for a reading nook - as well as three additional bedrooms and a full and half bath, ideal for family and guests. Step outside to your backyard sanctuary. Surrounded by nature, this private oasis offers direct waterfront living with a 60-foot dock - easily accommodating a 40-foot boat and 4-6 feet of water depth depending on tide. The home is also fully equipped with an integrated audio system for effortless entertaining. Included with the property is the adjacent lot, providing endless potential for expansion, recreation, or simply enjoying the surrounding beauty. Located just minutes from the Gilford Park Yacht Club, Summit Avenue Beach, and Dillon's Creek Marinathis is more than a home, it's a lifestyle. Every day here feels like a vacation.
