This oversized 80x100 corner location affording beautiful bay views, swimming pool, 6 bedrooms, 5 baths and 2 half baths, is unique to the Avalon Market. As you enter the foyer boasting soaring ceilings, you are greeted with a magnificent spiral staircase and 9 foot ceilings throughout the entire first floor level. To the left of the foyer, you have one of 4 bedrooms with ensuite bath. Down the hall, a Jack and Jill bathroom is situated between two bedrooms. The fourth bedroom is closest to the beach with another ensuite bath. The thoughtfully designed first floor features a powder room with direct access from the pool area, avoiding the need to tread through the home with wet feet to find a restroom. Rounding out the first living level is a spacious family room with wet bar and access to the rear deck, overlooking the pool plus a laundry room. Ascending the spiral stair, you are greeted with volume ceilings throughout the Great Room, kitchen and dining area. The bay views from this level grab your attention from almost every angle, as they greet you from the south and west, throughout the main living area, front and rear decks and into the westerly bedroom with ensuite bath. Adjoining the Dining Area and Great Room with gas fireplace is the well-equipped kitchen, attentively designed, with soft close cabinets, a 36 inch stove, enormous refrigerator, stone tops, wine fridge, two sinks and an island with seating for 7, you are well prepared to entertain family and friends. The second floor includes the master suite along with a Junior Suite (6th Bedroom) and an additional powder room directly off the Great room. The front deck will likely be your favorite location in the evenings as you have optimum water views facing west/southwest to watch the sun set right into the water. Off the back side of the Great room, you will find a spacious deck with access to the pool area via the spiral staircase. With most homes in this area being 60x110, you truly appreciate the size of this unique lot while spending time on the pool patio. A cabana and garage are adjacent to the massive pool, allowing for an exceptional amount of space in the rear yard to entertain - a very unusual find on ordinary lots. With two curb cuts (one off Ocean Drive and one off 52nd Street) parking will never be an issue on this quiet street. If you are looking for a stunning home on a large piece of land on the seven mile island, look no further than 5189 Ocean Drive.
