About 153 Harbor Island Road
Abundant natural light, brilliant water views, space, and sophisticated finish quality – delightfully presented in concert with transcendent mid-century architectural detail. One of a small collection of waterfront properties set along Harbor Island Road; an enclave desired for its distinct location, this exceptional parcel affords the requisite elements for an elegant, yet comfortable on-water lifestyle. The over 4,000 square feet of impeccably appointed living areas encompassing four bedrooms – including a main-level primary suite, and four baths, as well as myriad formal and informal spaces for dining, entertaining, and leisure are splendidly connected to the scenic exterior through a generous installation of walls of glass and thoughtfully placed windows and glass doors. Every consideration was made in re-imagining the interior to enhance the never-to-be-replicated structural aspects while elevating materials, fixtures, and surfaces – incorporating rare stone, terrazzo, designer hardware and lighting, custom finish carpentry, and Sub-Zero appliances. Extending the accommodation of this exceptional home is a rare compilation of exterior environs – a secluded courtyard entry with a spa and mature, lush surround; multiple wrap-around second-level galleries; and an expansive, near property-width terrace crowning the 70’ of water frontage all afford uncommon privacy and multiple respites for outdoor enjoyment. Further complementing the offering is a new, 70’ dock with berthing capacity for a 70’ vessel along with additional watercraft. Optimal proximity to distinguished regional amenities; a stylish uncompromised retreat in an idyllic setting – an extraordinary opportunity. No Tideland Fees. No HOA Fees. No Dock Fees.

In cities, the fire zone line follows the State Fire Marshal's 2025 map; each city adopts its own map and may add areas. These lines are not a Natural Hazard Disclosure. Check the official maps and the seller's disclosures before you rely on them.
