Floor-to-ceiling columns, for instance, set
apart the formal dining area with an octagonal
cathedral ceiling. Exposed beam ceilings and a
marble fireplace amplify the mood around the
elegant wood bar where friends converse over
sunset cocktails. And a grand, double-height
ceiling of more than 20 feet ushers you into
the main living room, where grand windows
offer up a sky-high canvas of blue vistas against
tumbling ocean waves.
It's an epic scene—one you can even enjoy
while washing dishes in the kitchen, a bright
and mellow space featuring a neutral palette of
glossy stone against white wood. From any of the
main living areas you can step onto the sizable
wood deck overlooking the beachfront and ocean,
an ideal perch to kick back or enjoy dinner grilled
on the built-in barbecue. This middle floor is
fluid, serving as a place of everyday living against
a backdrop of ocean views; and flexible enter-
taining. Smaller get-togethers can be focused in
localized areas, while large events can take place
across the spacious open-plan floor as a whole.
Head to the uppermost floor—which is
reserved for the primary suite, which lives like
a grand penthouse unto its own. Two separate
balconies offer different high-altitude takes
on the seascape below; there are two walk-in
closets and two classic spa bathrooms, both
featuring gleaming porcelain and marble. A
separate space, suitable as an office or sitting
room, is also part of the primary suite; a sunlit
cozy haven with an interior balcony that looks
over the living room below.
By contrast, head down to the first, or
Strand level, for beach-day gatherings: Vertical
batten-board walls and exposed-beam ceilings
continue the traditional vernacular of the home,
while a wall of doors opens onto a sprawling
red-brick terrace where you can entertain large
groups, or host intimate cocktail parties and
candlelight dinners. Step inside to mix drinks
at the bar, or fetch a chilled bottle from the
refrigerator in the wine room.
