Majestic oceanfront perch delights with priceless views

Approaching the tall, elegant and solid house at 1990 Ocean Ridge Circle on the barrier island, you see 14 windows, two front doors with windows and two French doors, and know immediately this home in the Oceanridge gated community is a bright one where one can think clearly, feel good internally and be grateful for the privilege of having sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean without even stepping foot on the beach.

When you walk up the elegant curved main staircase with limestone banister or take a ride in the elevator from the ground floor to the main floor and step into this oceanfront home, you get the feeling you’re on a very smooth-sailing cruise ship. This is due to the fact that the main floor (which happens to be the second level) – with living room, dining room, breakfast nook, kitchen, den, office and master bedroom – is set high off of the street, offering an up-close and personal view of the ocean. Also, access to second- and third-floor balconies reinforce the sensation of being on a luxury cruise liner, one that at every turn captures the beauty of the ocean, its expansive blue elevating your spirits.

The house is beautifully built, with custom millwork and crown molding and travertine and hardwood floors on different levels giving the 3,727-square-foot home that extra “oomph.” The curved stairway to the front doors is so grand and welcoming, it creates a sense of mystery and excitement in a visitor entering this lovely home.

Built in 2014, the three-story house with three bedrooms, four baths, den and office is listed with Matilde Sorensen for $3,200,000. There’s also a covered lanai on the ground level which makes easy access to the private beach a wonderful asset to owning this home.

“From the moment you enter this spectacular home you are immediately in awe of the sweeping ocean views that can be enjoyed from nearly every room,” said Matilde Sorensen, broker and co-owner of Dale Sorensen Real Estate.” It’s truly a beautiful home of exceptional architectural style, finishes and quality.”

Upon entering, you notice strong architectural details, including columns and the light-filled 20-foot by 19-foot living room. Access to a large balcony is offered through sliding glass doors. Next to the living room is a dining room that one can imagine hosting fun dinner parties in.

The kitchen has a handsome look to it with plenty of countertops, excellent appliances and nice touches including mosaic tiles embedded in the backsplash. Another large-scale mosaic is located on the front of the house, easily visible to those walking up the steps.

The breakfast nook affords more of those lovely views.

A 19-foot by 14-foot master bedroom has access to the second-story balcony and spiral staircase leading to a private beach. The master bathroom is actually two luxurious retreats, one for him and one for her. Hers features a glass-enclosed shower with multi-jets, toilet room, sink and vanity. His has a multi-jetted shower, bathroom and sink. There are his and her closets.

Also on the main level is a 13-foot by 12-foot den with ocean view, and a similarly-sized study/office with views of the western sky. Another room can be used as a huge supply area and the laundry room is also spacious and bright.

On the top floor are spacious living quarters offering the ultimate in privacy. There’s a large kitchenette, family room and two bedrooms; the west bedroom is 17 by 13 feet; the east bedroom, 12 by 11 feet.

The ground level provides access to the elevator, covered lanai and a four-car garage with abundant storage space.

“The expansive design and layout afford plenty of room to entertain guests or relax at this sun-filled and inviting seaside retreat,” Sorensen said.

Oceanridge is a gated community conveniently located across the street from Saint Edward’s School, and near the Moorings Yacht & Country Club.
