Property Description

LOCATION

50 Coconut Lane, Ocean Ridge, Florida. One of the Gold Coast’s best-kept secrets, Ocean Ridge is prized for its tranquility, relaxed ambiance, and unspoiled barrier island beauty nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway.

PROPERTY

On a gated and fenced half-acre backing a natural area with mangroves, this rare Ocean Ridge Intracoastal Waterway property offers an expansive yard for outdoor activities and invites year-round enjoyment of Florida’s natural beauty. Patios, courtyards and balconies create an indoor/outdoor connection, and the loggia overlooks the tennis court with a half-basketball court and large pool. Watersport enthusiasts will appreciate the waterside wood deck where they can launch their kayaks, paddleboards or jet skis. 

RESIDENCE

In an architectural style that is reminiscent of Old World Spain, this 1924-vintage five-bedroom compound, with a main residence and separate guesthouse totaling 6,349 +/- total square feet, is embellished with beautiful features typical of its time period. Its creamy stucco-finished exterior is topped by a barrel-tile roof and set off with arches and columns along with touches of pecky cypress and wrought-iron. Floors throughout are rich marble and honey-toned wood and ceilings are beautifully detailed. Upon entering the pecky-cypress front door from the front courtyard with a fountain, the gallery features a pecky-cypress beamed ceiling supported by corbels. The wood-burning fireplace is a chic focal point in the living room, which is also crowned by a pecky-cypress beamed ceiling. French doors from the formal dining room open to the courtyard -- this space, with a nearby bathroom, currently serves as a lovely guest bedroom suite. The cook-island kitchen is fitted with custom wood cabinets, granite countertops and high-end appliances, and just adjacent is an informal dining room with French doors that lead to the backyard. With a contemporary vibe, details in the family room include floor-to-ceiling impact-glass sliding doors that open to the pool-view loggia, a single-slope ceiling, and a stunning stone accent wall. On the second floor, French doors from the primary suite lead to a tree-top-view balcony, and the suite comprises a large custom-fitted walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bathroom. Also upstairs are two guest bedrooms, both with built-in cabinetry and one with a balcony. The layout of the detached two-story guest house includes living and dining rooms, kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Living area floors are finished in Mexican tile, with wood floors in the bedrooms. The main residence and the guesthouse both have laundry rooms, and for covered parking, the carport can accommodate three cars.
