This stunning, nearly $3-million estate delivers vibes of a tropical paradise, like it was plucked off the shores of a Bahamian island.

But instead of traveling to some faraway island, this beauty is ideally situated on 100 feet of direct Intracoastal Waterway property in one of the area’s most sought-after locations, Ormond Beach’s 900 block of John Anderson Drive.

Secured, electric iron gates lead to “a private oasis, surrounded by lush, tropical landscape,’’ said Realtor Buzzy Porter, adding that the home welcomes you with an abundance of natural light, custom wood-plank vaulted ceilings, tile and wood flooring, plantation-style wood shutters throughout, meticulous details and a stunning custom-wood staircase.

On the main floor, there’s a living room with fireplace, dining room and the family/theater room, featuring a phenomenal wet bar with dual refrigerated drawers, an ice maker and a built-in entertainment system.

An en-suite with private entry and laundry can be an in-law suite, and the gourmet kitchen is well equipped with professional-grade appliances, custom cabinetry, a center-island workstation, a walk-in pantry, tons of storage, a breakfast nook, breakfast bar and casual dining area.

A unique, iron-gate wine pantry with a Eurocave wine fridge and an additional wine-storage closet round out the first floor.

The upper level holds two guest bedrooms, both with stunning views, a guest bathroom with dual vanities, a loft area and a full-sized laundry room.

The one-of-a-kind owner’s suite features an entry lounge, a wraparound balcony with panoramic views of the Intracoastal, windows from corner to corner and two enormous walk-in closets with islands and complete closet systems. Its recently updated bathroom is in a class by itself, with a free-standing tub alongside an electric fireplace, a custom-tiled steam shower, built-in TV, dual handmade glass sinks, new soft-close cabinets, exquisite gold-accented light fixtures and a beverage/breakfast bar with a mini-sink, fridge and stunning glass-tile backsplash. An adjacent office is flanked with custom millwork and built-in shelving. 

“Soak up the day by enjoying breathtaking sunsets from the upper-level balconies, or venture down to the backyard,’’ said Porter, of Realty Pros Assured. “There’s no need to schedule a vacation when you have resort-style living at your fingertips.”

Outside, an under-roof area features electric remote screens to shield the afternoon sun and a gorgeous, lagoon-style custom pool with a gas-heated hot tub, waterfall and a center-island diving board and a firepit area.

Just beyond is the dock, equipped with a 10,000-pound boat lift, an upper-level sun deck, electric and water.

Other highlights include a new metal roof, an easily accessible, climate-controlled third-floor storage area, a 250-gallon fiberglass water heater, a full-house generator, six AC units and surround-sound wiring inside and out.
