3 Ocean Course Drive enjoys some of the most breathtaking views on the Island. From two holes of the world-famous Ocean Course, the marsh with its serene pond waters, to the waves of the Atlantic Ocean beyond—the moment you step through the front door you are captivated.
Step inside and your gaze goes through the open floor plan to a wall of windows spanning the kitchen, dining and living room overlooking the pool decks to the layers of marsh, golf and ocean waves. An open floor plan on the first floor includes four separate areas for relaxation or entertaining, including a conversation room, dining area, great room with fireplace and bar complete with pool table, not to mention a large open kitchen with bar seating. A guest suite allows for privacy from the rest of the home. Tucked away is a laundry room and bath with shower near the pool and deck.
The entry has French oak wide-plank hardwood flooring which continues throughout the home. A graceful staircase with refined wainscoting curves up to the next level, supplementing an elevator running to all floors. To the right of the front door, a serene sitting area invites, opening to a cool living room with a high, white-beamed ceiling, sophisticated wainscoting, and cushiony seating in hues of ivory and pale sand.
Through a wide cased opening is the home’s great room, complete with a gas- and .wood-burning fireplace and a surround of François stone. Four floor-to-ceiling windows showcase views of The Ocean Course, while just outside is an outdoor living room set beneath a gorgeous wood porch ceiling. The great room’s sitting area is open to the dining room, with its stunning barrel-vaulted ceiling and views of the pool, pond, and green fairways. Its long dining table seats eight with ease.
The airy kitchen is a chef’s dream, with all Thermador® appliances, each in stainless steel but for refrigerator and freezer, paneled in white to match the room’s cabinetry and flanking a tall wine cooler. A custom hood tops the gas stovetop with its pale-tiled backsplash. Beneath the white-beamed ceiling is also a center island with veined granite countertop and seating for up to five. Perimeter countertops are pale quartzite, and sleek stainless cabinet pulls compliment the space. Transomed windows above the sink overlook the views, and a pantry offers extra storage.
The home's outdoor kitchen can be found inside a seamlessly screened porch with floor-to-ceiling views. The area provides spacious seating for six beside a stainless steel grill with custom hood set into a pale-tiled sidebar. A cosmopolitan billiards room emerges on the other side of the kitchen. Topped by a stunning white coffered ceiling, it features a full-service wet bar easily seating five. An adjacent guest suite delights with clean white crown molding, transomed windows flanking the bed, and a pale bath with beautifully tiled, frameless-glass walk-in rain shower.
Opening from the second-story landing is a centerpiece of the home: a sitting room with white-beamed vaulted ceiling and glass doors leading to a steel-railed balcony with even more striking views of The Ocean Course and Atlantic. The airy first primary suite is beautifully positioned on this level. A white-beamed vaulted ceiling soars above its bedroom, and glass doors and windows line two walls. Outside, under a ceiling of rich, dark-hued beadboard, a private balcony showcases breathtaking views as blue skies are reflected in the wide pond waters beside holes 13 and 14 of The Ocean Course.
Its bath is exquisite with his-and-her vanities, a sleek standalone soaking tub set beneath a sunny window, and a frameless rain shower.
The second primary suite is spectacular with a white-beamed vaulted ceiling, white wainscoting, and a wall of glass doors opening to a private balcony with equally stunning views. In its bath is a long, unbroken line of his-and-her vanities and an oversized shower with custom tile. Any guest would be elated to be directed to one of the light-filled suites on this level. Trimmed in wide, clean molding and enjoying transomed windows overlooking Island views, their baths include custom-tiled frameless-glass rain showers and wide, pale vanities offering ample space for toiletries.
