VILLA DEL MARE A Rare Mediterranean Estate on Florida’s Intracoastal Waterway Every once in a while, a home comes to market that stands apart from the rest. Hidden beneath a canopy of majestic mature live oaks at the end of a private drive on nearly three-quarters of an acre, Villa del Mare is one of Grand Haven’s most extraordinary waterfront estates. Bordering the community’s waterfront park with no neighboring home on one side, this remarkable residence offers a level of privacy, architectural beauty, and waterfront living that is seldom found. Inspired by the timeless elegance of Mediterranean villas, every detail of the home reflects enduring craftsmanship. Graceful archways, handcrafted stone fountains, soaring ceilings, rich granite flooring, and thoughtfully designed living spaces create an atmosphere that feels both grand and welcoming. Walls of picture windows frame the tranquil waters of the Intracoastal, inviting nature into nearly every room and filling the home with natural light. Designed for gathering as beautifully as it is for quiet moments, the home features elegant formal living and dining rooms, a spacious family room centered around breathtaking waterfront views, a generous laundry room, and a covered breezeway leading to the oversized 2.5-car garage. The first-floor owner’s suite is a private sanctuary overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway. Wake each morning to spectacular sunrises reflected across the water before stepping directly onto the screened pool terrace. A double-sided gas fireplace creates warmth between the bedroom and an adjoining sitting room, ideal for a private office, library, or peaceful retreat. Dual walk-in closets provide abundant storage, while the luxurious marble-finished bath offers double vanities, a jetted soaking tub, an exquisite marble mosaic walk-in shower, and a private water closet with bidet. A separate marble-finished half bath provides convenient access to the pool. Upstairs, family and guests enjoy two spacious bedrooms connected by an elegant Jack-and-Jill bath. One bedroom opens onto a generous private balcony overlooking the pool, where peaceful Intracoastal views create the perfect setting for morning coffee or an evening under the stars. Throughout the residence, every bathroom is beautifully appointed in timeless marble, reflecting the home’s exceptional quality and enduring design. Outside, Florida living reaches its finest. Spend afternoons relaxing beside the screened pool and spa as dolphins and gentle manatees glide through the Intracoastal. Cast a line from your dock, set out for a sunset cruise, or simply enjoy the peaceful rhythm of waterfront living beneath the shade of majestic oaks. Designed to complement the home’s Mediterranean architecture, the private covered boathouse is both beautiful and functional. Featuring a 34-foot covered slip, 9,000-pound High-Tide boat lift, approximately 12-foot beam, electric service, fresh water, generous walk-around decking, and additional side mooring, it offers effortless access to one of Florida’s most scenic waterways. Constructed in 2008, the boathouse seamlessly extends the home’s architectural character while creating the perfect gateway to life on the water. Beyond the gates, Grand Haven offers an exceptional lifestyle. Residents enjoy a 24-hour staffed security gate, two resort-style pools, a waterfront restaurant and café, fitness center, tennis courts, pickleball courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, miles of scenic walking and biking trails, and an active calendar of clubs and community events. The renowned Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course is available through optional membership, while HOA and CDD fees include access to the community’s outstanding amenities. Perfectly positioned just two miles from shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, and everyday conveniences, approximately seven miles from Flagler Beach, eighteen miles from Historic Downtown St. Augustine, and twenty-eight miles from Daytona Beach, Villa del Mare offers a rare blend of peaceful seclusion and everyday accessibility. Some homes impress with their size. Others captivate with their location. Villa del Mare is memorable because it offers something far more enduring-timeless architecture, extraordinary privacy, exceptional craftsmanship, and a lifestyle centered around the beauty of Florida’s Intracoastal Waterway. This is more than a home. It is a timeless waterfront estate designed to be treasured for generations. Welcome to Villa Del Mare
