About 166 Sidney Bay Drive
First time on the market, this sophisticated, yet casual, residence was Brookfield Home's former model. The home's front row orientation boasts unobstructed, 180 degree panoramic ocean, and white water views, as well as easy access to shopping, dining, and Crystal Cove State Beach. The current owners purchased this home direct from the builder and have since added an additional 1100 square feet of living space, including a carriage quest suite with a private entrance. There are three additional bedroom suites, including a master retreat with a view tower and two additional multi-purpose areas, plus two main floor bedrooms with private en-suite baths. The primary living space has an open concept living area that looks out to the salt water pool and spa. This property has all the wonderful appointments one would expect; custom wood doors and windows, limestone and walnut flooring, gourmet kitchen, surround sound system throughout, and the list goes on. Rounding out the home's resort feel, the Crystal Cove community amenities include a gym, tennis courts, parks, clubhouse, pool, and private access to Crystal Cove beach.
