Situated on a corner lot just a short walk to the beach, 1 Sandhill Crane enjoys the convenience of direct driveway access from both Sandhill Crane Road and North Sea Pines Drive. The all-new coquina-shell and brick-accent concrete driveway is complimented by all-new matching brick and coquina steps leading to the covered front porch of the home. A leaded-glass wooden-frame door is highlighted with two sidelights and an overhead transom window, creating a dramatic and light/bright entry into the large foyer. With its soaring ceiling appointed with a modern chandelier, the foyer welcomes you into this cheerful home and introduces the casual but elegant theme of 16” tile flooring that runs throughout the main level of the home. The foyer opens via twin pocket doors to the dining room to the left and to a beautiful, high-volume-ceiling living room straight ahead. To the right of the foyer, a hallway leads to the two private guest suites situated on the main level.

The dining room is very generous is size and is filled with natural light from the bank of four windows (complete with 2” custom blinds), and overhead recessed lighting washes warm light over the tile floor.

The living room is treated with a continuation of the easy-maintenance tile flooring, though accented with a large area rug that is highlighted by overhead recessed lighting. The living room is filled with sunlight through the sliding glass door and its twin plate-glass sidelights plus the double casement windows on the adjoining wall – all overlooking the private swimming pool. An integrated gas fireplace is flanked by substantial built-in cabinetry and book cases, and there is a large flat-screen television perfectly positioned in the center of this dynamic space.

The all-new gourmet kitchen flows directly into a light, bright and charming family room filled with natural light and positioned to take in views of the landscaped pool area to the rear of the property. The kitchen features a dramatic and multi-functional center island, appointed with beautiful, black, solid stone countertops. With its tile flooring and white custom cabinetry, the kitchen is made complete with a full compliment of high-end, stainless steel appliances including the Kitchenaid refrigerator/freezer, Bosch convection double-oven, Bosch 5-burner electric smooth-finish cooktop, Bosch dishwasher, Frigidaire microwave, U-Line wine-fridge, and Kitchenaid icemaker.
