Property Description
Dream of the Sea, the Nantucket Architectural-inspired historical home located in Wilbur-by-the-Sea, Florida, is now up for sale.
Just north of New Smyrna Beach and South of Ponce Inlet.
Originally built in 1920, this pristine 5,800 sq ft oceanfront gated estate has been tastefully renovated with luxurious details and modern-day features, all the while maintaining its original Old-Florida charm.
Perched 30' above sea level, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on a no-drive beach, Dream of the Sea is a breathtaking 3-story residence. The home is composed of four bedrooms (one has been converted into a library), three full bathrooms, a stunning sunroom, a formal living and dining room, a designer gourmet kitchen, a library room, a gym area, a theatre and a gam area, an infinity pool complete with cabana and outdoor gas fire features, and stunning unobstructed views of the crystal clear ocean.
Upon arrival, you will notice the gated wrap-around motor courtyard. There is ample space for parking. The attached air-conditioned garage with custom built-in cabinets allows for two vehicles, and the driveway can accommodate up to four vehicles, an RV, or jet skis. The garage itself offers storage and a private stockroom. You will also find the gym area and the theatre and game lounge on the lower level.
As you make your way up the stairs to the main floor you will first be captivated by the beauty of the ocean even before you set foot in the home. There are lovely spots to lounge about and enjoy the outdoor areas. From the refreshing infinity pool and cabana, complete with custom cabinetry and granite countertops, to the upper and lower sun decks, no matter where you choose to lounge - the mighty Atlantic Ocean takes center stage.
As you enter the home, you will be impressed with the formal living room's intricate beadwork and visual offerings you would expect of European craftsmen, original Heart-of-Pine from the 1900s, wood in-laid ceilings, walls, and floors. The formal living room is impressive and also boasts a fireplace that centers the room. Through the French doors, you will find the sunroom which is perfect for beach watching and soaking up the warmth of the sun. Another space to mention on this floor is the library, complete with built-in shelves and a deck overlooking the front of the property.
You will find the first two bedrooms on the main floor, one of which has its own fully renovated private bathroom. There is also a guest bathroom complete with a soaking tub, and the oceanfront formal dining room. As well as the fully renovated designer gourmet kitchen with ocean views, custom cabinetry, SubzeroFridge, Viking Wine Fridge & dishwasher, and microwave, GE Profile Gas Range with double ovens, wine display rack, granite countertops & backsplash, pot filler above stove, separate sink for food prep, custom tiger wood Table/Island. You will also notice the original wood-burning fireplace in the kitchen with a sitting area, a large pantry with a built-in desk area, and a doorway to the laundry room.
The oceanfront formal dining room is the perfect place to host dinner parties. Boasting original custom built-in cabinets, a separate entrance for catering staff to the kitchen, a one-of-a-kind chandelier, and a window bench - this space will make you feel at home.
The entire third floor is dedicated to the master retreat. It is a stunning 1000 sq ft with 360' views, a custom built-in breakfast bar with fridge & sink, a jacuzzi tub, oversized steam shower, double vanities, separate sitting and office area, and a large private deck looking the Atlantic Ocean.
There is no other home along the coast that beckons such elegance, history, and modern-day grandeur.
