This 1997 residence occupies a premier main channel position, offering 180-degree panoramic views across more than 100 feet of deep-water frontage. The 6,285-square-foot interior is architectural in focus, utilizing arched fenestration and soaring ceiling heights to emphasize the natural light inherent to the site.

Outdoor amenities are comprehensive, featuring a summer kitchen, multiple covered terraces, and a private pier equipped with two docks and dual lifts.
