Ideally placed among the area’s most beautiful properties along a coveted stretch of beach, this one-of-a-kind oceanfront home that was custom built more than 30 years ago is being offered at a reduced price of $2,950,000.

Originally built in 1991, this magnificent estate has a spectacular elevation that offers peace of mind while enhancing the views and breezes, and the coastal-modern design of its light-filled interior make this home a work of art.

The interior shows off soaring ceilings above oversized picture windows that frame the Atlantic Ocean and tile floors that cover the main living areas.

“The avant-garde design was ahead of its time,’’ said Realtor Chrissy Royce, who added that the original owner, Phillip H. Elliot Jr., Esq., diligently worked alongside architect Ken McGee and local builder Pete Foley to produce an estate that stands out among the neighboring beachside mansions.

This “pretty-in-pink” oceanfront home offers a beautiful contrast to the surrounding blue skies, aqua seas and white sands of Ormond Beach.

The interior shows off soaring ceilings above oversized picture windows that frame the Atlantic Ocean, tile floors throughout the main living areas and a gorgeous, custom-built spiral staircase that leads to the second floor.

French doors open onto the sprawling first-floor patio with magnificent ocean views.

“I feel inspired by the exquisite craftsmanship displayed,’’ exclaimed Royce, of Adams, Cameron & Co. Realtors. “From the inviting custom front door to the one-of-kind spiral staircase, the architectural and design features are exquisite.”

Also on the first floor is the direct-oceanfront primary suite, featuring a cavernous walk-in closet, two water closets, a garden tub and a separate shower.

French doors open onto the sprawling first-floor patio as well as the two private balconies on the second floor, providing endless ocean views.

Located across from Oceanside Country Club, this solid concrete-block home is your ticket to sunset walks to the river and leisurely strolls on the no-drive beach.

“I feel like this property stands alone in its location and its quality,” Royce said. “With the use of elevation and the surrounding environment in the design process, this gorgeous estate could be seen as a landmark on this coveted piece of no-drive beach.”

This custom-built spiral staircase not only leads to the second floor, it stands out as a centerpiece of the foyer.
