218 Oceanfront: an exceptional and singularly rare residence. Sited on a scarce corner lot, this beachfront home offers the ultimate refined on-the-sand lifestyle. A rigorous to-the-studs reimagining was recently completed, resulting in coveted contemporary lines and breathtaking ocean vistas from both levels. Expert layering of rich, contrasting elements including wood, stone, and glass throughout creates an ambiance of timeless luxury. The main floor invites the exteriors in through a wall of automated glass doors spanning the length of the front, seamlessly connecting an oceanfront patio with the great room. This ample space with a fireplace encompasses a living area, a dining section, and the home's remarkable kitchen. Anchored by a grand waterfront edge quartzite-topped island, this culinary haven features a combination of Wolf, Cove, and SubZero appliances, bespoke cabinetry, and a large butler's pantry, adding further functionality to this elegant space. A sleek, floating wood-and-glass staircase connects the two levels, creating a visual statement. The primary suite is all about coastal opulence, with dramatic vaulted ceilings, an ocean-view deck, and a fireplace. With floating double vanities, a freestanding tub, a large shower, and an impressive closet, the exquisite bathroom creates an atmosphere of indulgence. Three secondary bedrooms and a functional loft complete the upper floor. While offering refinement, this residence lacks no conveniences: from an oversized garage with a lift for a third vehicle to a whole-house Savant smart system that controls the home's automation. Featuring ease of access to the area's highlights, 218 E Oceanfront offers a premium location on the Balboa Peninsula. Partial seller financing may be available.
