Amazing property and house that walks out to quiet beachfront. We were a bit concerned of traffic noise with the property being in close proximity to the coastal thoroughfare (A1A). Those worries were alleviated when we arrived. The house is nestled on a quiet, side street and the loudest sounds heard were from the ocean waves. The property itself is very nicely landscaped. Walk out to the pool and one can see the Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse a short distance away. The heated pool or a soak in the hot-tub were great for winding down.
The house lives up to wonderful expectations from the photos. The downstairs was open and spacious and the architect took advantage of the full, ocean view. The entire rear of the house has floor to ceiling windows or sliding door. The electronic blinds can be a bit tricky to figure out at first, but not as issue. The open floor plan made family meals and interaction an easy gathering place for talk and games. The upstairs has an interesting lay-out with 2 stair cases. The master bedroom is very spacious and has even better ocean views with the large deck off the side. The other 3 bedrooms were off a single hallway and were sufficiently quiet. Two share a bathroom across the hall, while the third has its own full bathroom. Very attentive house manager: We couldn't find the toaster. Igor, went out and had one delivered within a couple hours and answered my text messages quickly.
Fave nearby things to do: Walks on a quiet beach. Watch the sunrise from the upper deck. Head to the Ocean Grill for an ocean view bite to eat or drink. Check out the restaurants and stores in Lauderdale-By-The-Sea. Go for a bike ride or hike at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park. Excellent seafood at the casual Papa Hughie's Seafood World.
