Crest Océanique

Embrace this rare opportunity to own a 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home in Tusculum on Western New Providence. With only one other similar to it in size in the nine-residence ocean-facing gated community, Oceancrest features 3,800 sq ft interiors and elevations up to 60 feet.

This single-family residence commands an elevated hill-top lot, offering breathtaking ocean views that pop during daylit hours and take on a more subdued hue at sunset - a view to be enjoyed in all its splendor from the top-floor balcony or open-air rooftop. One of the only two 3-story homes within the community, being the largest in the quaint neighbourhood, Oceancrest features elevations from around 45 feet at entry level, rising to 60+ feet above sea level at the upper floors.

Originally designed by celebrated architect, Henry Melich, Oceancrest has “good bones”. Ready to be renovated and perhaps the footprint reimagined, there are many directions of redesign a creative new owner can take. There are ample rooms for the expansion of: further bedrooms; an in-home office, den or media room; a games room or gym; or additional formal and informal family living rooms.

Set on a lot measuring 6,589 sq ft, Oceancrest provides an intimate space within the privately walled grounds for the addition of a pool and a landscaped terrace. The possibilities don’t end there though, the space lends itself to the addition of a gazebo and a side-garden that can be dedicated to gardening or recreation, or a bit of both.

The main living floor offers a large terrace with stunning views over the ocean looking northward towards the necklace of reefs a mile offshore. Given the home’s 500’ distance to the ocean, Oceancrest is to be enjoyed by both land and sea. On the ocean shoreline there are two beaches located to the west and east of the community, ideal for swimming or for enjoying easy or brisk beach walks. When the north-western wind blows, it beckons the occasional kitsurfer to dart amongst the waves.

Tusculum is conveniently located a short distance to some of Nassau’s leading restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacies, medical centres and clinics. Furthermore, Nassau’s International Airport, Old Fort Bay, Lyford Cay, and the famous Baha Mar Resort & Casino are a short drive. Rarely does an opportunity like this present itself. Offered in USD.
