The home

About 257 Vista Marina

Perhaps the rarest of its kind, this newer-built home in the heart of T-Street is truly a dream-come-true opportunity. Upon entering this well-appointed Cape Cod, white and bright light-filled spaces contrast a crisp, emerald-blue horizon complimented by the sound of whitewater waves crashing nearby. Encapsulated by one extensive great room, expansive disappearing doors meld indoor/outdoor living seamlessly, drawing you to the saltwater pool's edge (Electronic pool cover & water slide). An ocean-view chef's kitchen drenched in white marble offers top-of-line amenities including a giant Wolf range, custom-built cabinetry, full-sized individual sub-zero refrigerator & freezer, bonus oven within the walk-in pantry garnished with rolling oak cabinetry-access ladder. Undeniable ocean views are captured even from the backyard dining patio. Featuring a rare elevator access from the garage to all levels, this home gets even better? Perhaps the most desirable feature unique to this elegant masterpiece is the 55' deep subterranean garage with full bathroom, cabinetry, additional washer/dryer, surfboard storage compartment, golf cart nook, and parking for 6 cars comfortably. Take the elevator to an emerald ocean-view master suite all on the third level, with massive covered/heated viewing deck, laundry / full kitchenette / office room, and direct whitewater views of the surf break at T-Street. From the 'surf-check' roof deck, distant panoramic vistas complete this dreamy southwest home.
