Gracefully placed to capture natural light and surrounding water from multiple vantage points, this custom home delivers balance -- openness without exposure, privacy without isolation. The interiors are bright and spacious, unfolding with calm, upscale simplicity. Expansive windows invite the outdoors in, while the home's orientation fosters a quiet sense of serenity. The rooftop terrace is a defining feature -- an ideal setting for sunrise over the Atlantic, sunset across the Intracoastal, and uninterrupted coastal air. A private four-stop elevator connects each level, supporting both everyday comfort and long-term livability. This residence was thoughtfully designed over the course of a year before breaking ground by architect Shawn Hostetler of Hostetler Architecture PLLC, resulting in a home where structure and livability were considered long before the first materials were placed. Built with intention for the coastal environment, the property incorporates a breakaway slab system designed to preserve the integrity of the primary foundation, along with two vertical steel beams extending from floor to roofline to provide an added level of structural reinforcement. The adjacent vacant lot further protects the sense of privacy , while downtown Carolina Beach -- restaurants, the boardwalk, coffee shops, and marina access -- is just a short golf cart ride away. Luxury coastal home with dual water views, privacy, elevator access, and proximity to downtown are increasingly limited along the Carolina Beach corridor. Understated. Architecturally refined. Exceptionally positioned.
