The entire floor plan was designed for view. Note the elevation change in the master bathroom. This was designed so there was an ocean view as one stood at either sink, sat in the tub or took a shower. This holds true in the guesthouse, which has the elevated sleeping area so the view could be captured.

The guesthouse( 2nd bedroom) was designed so that the owners could have many visitors and yet maintain their privacy.

Watch the turtles, dolphins and whales at play.

Enjoy the fabulous sunsets, moonlit nights and numerous rainbows.

Rare view corridor easements on both sides of the property.

The only thing between you and the view is…….ownership!
