Pre-Construction with customization opportunities! Welcome to 318 Trade Winds Avenue, a thoughtfully designed southern exposure pre-construction offering in the heart of the Connors area of Vanderbilt Beach. This 5 bedroom + office, 5 full bath and 1 powder bath single family home will feature two stories of elevated living over a massive three car garage with generous flex space. Every element of this home has been planned with detailed attention to design esthetic, seamless indoor-outdoor living, and the highest levels of storm preparedness for the Florida environment. Headwaters Development and South Florida Architecture have worked in tandem to craft a plan that maximizes the connection to the outdoors via oversized outdoor living spaces, 10' pocket sliders, and large picture windows overlooking the canal and sunset views. A private elevator offers ease of living. Customization is available! The chef's kitchen is planned to feature a Sub-Zero/Wolf appliance suite with propane gas cooking, custom hood, double wall oven, a large walk-in butler's pantry with wine storage, and custom cabinet designs paired with quartz countertops. Legno Bastone white oak floors will run through the entire residence, with the exception of custom floor tile designs in each bathroom. The dining room will be surrounded by large picture windows, offering a stellar vantage point over the water toward the beach. Step out through the large great room pocket sliders onto the covered outdoor lounge area overlooking the pool deck below. Motorized bug and storm screens, an outdoor fireplace, and an outdoor kitchen set the stage for gathering outside any time of year, while the custom designed pool is the perfect spot to enjoy fun in the sun. The first floor primary suite and en-suite guest suite are tucked away from the open concept main living areas, ensuring peace and privacy. Upstairs, three additional en-suite bedrooms and second laundry all open up to a large loft with wet bar and pocket sliders leading out to the top floor balcony with southwestern views. Outside, the concrete pool deck will feature stone pavers, a heated salt swimming pool and flush spa, and a lounge area. Just a few steps down leads to the planned private boat dock location for the ultimate coastal living experience. New sea wall! The pre-construction price includes an allowance for a boat dock (preliminary plans available upon request. Full allowance may be applied to custom boat dock if alterations are desired prior to construction).
