Across 8,178 square feet, the home blends timeless craftsmanship with high-end comforts. Highlights include a chef’s kitchen, two butler’s pantries, ten fireplaces, multi-zone heating, and high-velocity central air. The third floor has been completely renovated to harmonize with the home’s historic charm.

A true legacy property, Beachhurst is a masterpiece of coastal living for those who appreciate both history and refinement.
