About this Property

Wow! From the moment you enter the door, your lips will automatically form these three letters into the befitting description. The two-level, floating oak staircase sets the tone for the rest of the house. Even the glass elevator jetting up in the middle of the stairs is a sight to behold.

Begin at the top of those steps as you arrive at the expansive living room with a vaulted ceiling, fireplace, and breathtaking views of the Atlantic. Comfortable seating for all to gather for a family chat or watch the TV. Drift to the adjoining dining room, where a table awaits to seat all the guests. Some may want to move to the elevated gazebo for a game of cards or quiet reading. No matter where you are, the chefs in the kitchen can engage with others as they prepare their favorite dishes. A gourmet chef's delight includes a commercial-grade six-burner stove with a stainless exhaust hood, dual refrigerators, dishwashers, a wet bar on the island with a wine cooler, and a commercial ice maker. Some good vittles will be had for this vacation. Just outside, a two-level sundeck awaits, perfect for sunrises over the ocean. Or enjoy the comfy screened porch with cushioned furniture and an area rug beside the barbecue station. Two primary bedrooms are accessible off the west wing. There's also a watchtower at the end of this hallway with views in all directions.

Down to the next, you'll find five more primary bedrooms. The two east rooms are oversized, each with a gas fireplace. One has an elevated bath area, a custom tiled shower, and a bit of European flair with a bidet. Cruise back past the glass elevator to the west wing for the other three primary bedrooms. Wait till the little ones see the kid's room, styled just for the little princes and princesses in the group. They won't want to leave. An eight-person hot tub awaits outside these rooms on the large covered deck overlooking the ocean.

Okay, back down to the entry level. A large game room awaits with a pool table, foosball, another wet bar with a commercial ice maker, and an additional half bath. But to get there, you must pass the sauna room, where you can cleanse your pores with some dry heat, perhaps after a dip in the pool or hot tub. This room also includes a table shuffleboard for some fun with friends. The next room is a tiered mini-professional theater with a 12' silver screen, HD projector, leather seating, and Blu-Ray DVD. If the weather is not conducive outside, there's plenty to do inside!

At the far end of the game room, you can access the pool at the base of the dunes, with plenty of room for sunbathing and watching the kids have a blast. Taj adjoins the beach walkway, so the sand beneath your feet on one of America's perennial top 10 beaches is only seconds away. All primary bedrooms, floating Oak staircase, game room, pool/shuffleboard tables, breathtaking views, incredible private theater, fun kids' room, did we mention a glass elevator? Take comfort in knowing you have supported green initiatives with your selection of this home. LED lighting and geothermal environmental conditioning, and hot water supplement. All this will provide you and your guests with one incredible vacation at perhaps the island's best vacation home. Lifelong memories will be made here.
