AMAZING WATERFRONT COMPOUND

A very special jewel in the downtown crown of waterfront properties, this Tremerton Street compound is rich with surprises you wouldn’t expect at first glance. From the street what appears to be a charming historic cottage dressed in soft green gives way to a beautifully appointed three bedroom, three bath single-story home with its living oriented to the Intracoastal Waterway in its backyard. And there’s so much more to discover once you step outside into the private oasis.

Natural landscaping surrounds the pond and fountain screening the main house from the detached two-story cottage and overlooking the in-ground pool. This consummate guesthouse is upstairs with its own wraparound porch and panoramic water views. Fully equipped, it will never lack for guests and is presently used as an extremely coveted and successful holiday rental.

On the first floor there’s an indoor/outdoor living room with 16″ Travertine tile, granite counter, pendant lighting and a 3/4 bath easily accessed from the pool and patios. There’s also a kitchen with abundant cabinetry, counterspace and a refrigerator for ease of outdoor entertaining. An outdoor shower with hot and cold water is tucked behind the building and beyond it there is covered storage for outdoor toys. With a separate entrance, the office/studio/music room with its loft is the ideal place to indulge in your particular passion.

A custom built lighted dining room table is fragrant with the scent of jasmine twining itself around the posts and waterfront dinners will become a regular event. A wooden boardwalk spans the width of the property and is home to several lounging areas where you can get your daily dose of Vitamin D. For year-round enjoyment, the summer kitchen will do double duty for meal and cocktail prep. Be forewarned that this is and will be the go-to house for parties.

The lighted dock has a cleaning station for your catch, a lift and floater for your boats and a splendid view in all directions. Last but not least, the main house is simply lovely with a seamless mix of original detail and tasteful modern-day amenities. A generous sunny living room with hearth flows to the back of the house where dining, gathering, kitchen and butler’s pantry come together. French doors open to the deck and invite the breeze inside. En-suite, the master has a dedicated courtyard. Two guest rooms share a bath and there’s a full bath off the gathering room. There’s so much to savor – enjoy.
