$7,900,000

Rare even by 30A standards, this legacy property commands one of the most extraordinary settings on the coast, with Draper Lake and the gulf unfolding in a sweeping panorama that rivals any view along our coastline. This residence was designed to honor its remarkable homesite, pairing enduring construction with architecture… Read More that feels both stately and deeply connected to the landscape. From the moment of arrival, the experience is defined by elevation, light and an ever-changing backdrop of dune vegetation, lake outfall and open water. Built in 2006, the five-bedroom residence spans over 4,700 square feet of heated and cooled living space and rests on a homesite with an exceptional 245+ feet of combined waterfrontage. Engineered for longevity, the structure is anchored by deep wood pilings and reinforced by substantial retaining walls, a thoughtful response to its elevated coastal setting. A private elevator, whole-home generator, six-zone HVAC system and smart home integration provide a level of comfort and functionality that quietly supports everyday living. The home's Low Country-inspired architecture is expressed through cedar lap siding, a standing seam metal roof, copper-accented railings and expansive Brazilian hardwood decking. Inside, hand-hewn cypress floors, marble surfaces, tongue-and-groove cypress paneling and exposed cypress trusses create a layered interior rich in texture and craftsmanship. The main living, dining and kitchen spaces are crowned by a dramatic Cathedral ceiling with clerestory light, while walls of windows and French doors frame uninterrupted coastal views. The kitchen is both refined and highly functional, anchored by a statement La Cornue range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, custom cabinetry and a well-appointed butler's pantry. The gulf-facing primary suite opens onto a covered porch and features a beautifully detailed bath and built-in wall of mirrored closet doors. Guest suites are treated equally, each with a private bath and many offering direct access to outdoor living areas. Outdoor spaces are designed to complement the setting without competing with it. A private pool tucked behind native vegetation creates a sense of seclusion, while covered porches and elevated decks offer multiple vantage points to take in the view. A private dock and boardwalk extend to Draper Lake, offering effortless access for paddleboarding, kayaking and quiet mornings on the water. Within the gated community, owners enjoy multiple beach walkovers, a community pool and dedicated beach access. With frontage on both a coastal dune lake and the gulf, this is a unique location and elevation along Scenic Highway 30A. Read Less
