Listing Agent Remarks
Wow! As you enter this palatial home you realize this is no ordinary beach house. The winding grand staircases greet you and lead you to all the opulence this home has to offer. Lovingly cared for by its long-time owner, Grapefruit Moon is a true masterpiece, embodying the pinnacle of luxury that Corolla has to offer. Spanning over 5,200 square feet and featuring ten bedrooms, this property is a vacationer’s dream—evidenced by its impressive rental income.
The elegant upper level is designed to impress with expansive views, a beautifully appointed gathering area, and refined dining spaces. The adjacent open-concept kitchen is a chef’s paradise, spacious enough for multiple cooks to create culinary masterpieces. Equipped with twin dishwashers, a wet bar, and a disposal, all surrounded by stunning granite countertops, this kitchen is ready for anything. The raised bar overlooking the kitchen offers, yet another, space to congregate. The upper level is also home to two en suites, both featuring spacious baths with jetted garden tubs, showers and impressive tile work. Dining al fresco on the third level deck is popular due to the expansive decks with East and West exposure. So, you can enjoy coffee with the sunrise and sip bubbly as the sun sets! After taking the private elevator to the second floor, you will find six more bedrooms, each fitted for ultimate comfort. Flat screen televisions grace every room and numerous balconies provide private reading areas. Level 2 also showcases expansive East facing decks and the enormous front porch. As you head down the grand staircase, you are welcomed into an extensive game room equipped with a regulation size pool table. This festive space also incorporates a bar with icemaker and full refrigerator. Adjacent is the dedicated media room with large screen viewing and brand new lavish seating. This level is also home of two more en suites. The outdoor areas are also fit for a queen with private heated pool, invigorating hot tub, twin showers and a poolside cabaña.
Additional highlights of this extraordinary home include new twin commercial hot water heaters, fresh exterior paint (2024), a self-bailing upper deck, a new gas pool heater (2024), gutters, an ADA-compliant bath on the second level, two laundry facilities, bamboo flooring, lush landscaping, and a volleyball court with pristine sand. The location provides quick and easy access to the beach, just a short three-minute walk away. Situated in an X flood zone, there is no need (or requirement) for flood insurance. In many ways, this estate offers more advantages than an oceanfront property—without the constant upkeep associated with being on the pounding coastal surf. Attractively priced at $464/sq ft; far less than recent comparable sales of similar properties.
As you can see, this home is no common beach house. It is perfection, exemplified.
