About 8 Rockledge Road

Powerful in its design and historic significance, this Mills Act oceanfront residence set on an approximately 10,400+ square foot parcel presents sprawling seaside living. Perfectly positioned away from the street within the coveted Rockledge enclave, this exemplary Spanish-revival style estate originally designed by architect Garret Van Pelt enjoys a setting of unrivaled beauty and privacy with idyllic grounds sheltered by mature landscaping. True to Mediterranean-style living, the residence is introduced by a gated courtyard revealing the home’s explosive head-on views of the Pacific. While generous in size, the home emits a sense of intimacy and romance with classic design elements including arched windows and passages, wood-framed French doors, beamed ceilings, and fireplaces finished in smooth stucco. Although built more than 9 decades ago, the home has been refit with modern amenities such as an elevator, library, billiard’s room, collector’s wine room and award-worthy home theater designed by Theos Kalomirakis, complete with a concession stand and lobby. With white-water views from nearly every room and spacious grounds not often seen along the coastline, this enchanting residence promises a life of splendor. Complete with City and Coastal Commissioner approved plans by Morris Skenderian, Mills Act tax incentives and access to the beach below via a gated staircase exclusive to Rockledge community residents are additional highlights.
