Property details
About 40220 Sugar Hill Rd
Introducing a modern architectural marvel, nestled within serene North Bethany Beach dunes, masterfully designed by the acclaimed architect Robert Gurney, FAIA. This residence effortlessly blends innovative design with the natural beauty of its surroundings. The property boasts six bedrooms plus a den, three full bathrooms, and a half bathroom, offering ample space for contemporary beachfront living. The minimalist aesthetic of the home is both intentional and striking. The exterior features a harmonious blend of fiber cement board, stucco, and wood, while the interior is finished with reclaimed walnut flooring and crisp white painted millwork. The detailing throughout is meticulously executed, creating a sense of refined simplicity that perfectly complements the expansive views of the Atlantic Ocean. The kitchen is a chef's dream, outfitted with flat panel white cabinets and state-of-the-art Miele appliances, including a built-in coffee machine for your morning brew. The fixtures throughout the home are of the highest quality, featuring Hans Grohe and Graff Designs, ensuring every touchpoint is a luxurious experience. Designed to hover gracefully above the dunes, the home offers unobstructed views of the Atlantic, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the tranquil surroundings. Wood slats on the south side and lower levels invite gentle sea breezes into the home, while the innovative design of the west-facing stairwell allows light to filter through without overwhelming the space with harsh sunlight. The home was constructed using twenty-two existing pilings with the addition of eight new, in order to expand the building envelope all while maintaining the DNREC requirements. A marvel which cannot be constructed by today's standards and regulations. This property is more than just a home; it’s a sensory experience where the seamless interaction between indoor and outdoor living takes center stage. A rare opportunity to own a residence that is as much a work of art as it is a sanctuary, offering unparalleled ocean views, sophisticated design, and a deep connection to the natural environment.
