Description
Perched on a rocky promontory above the Atlantic Ocean, this extraordinary residence at the Waves occupies the second floor of the 1922 historic mansion designed by noted American architect John Russell Pope as his own home. Located on Ledge Road with a gated entry and sweeping views of Bailey’s Beach and the Cliff Walk the two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence offers harmonious blending of modern amenities and traditional elegance; each room with a wood burning fireplace. The dramatic private entrance to the second-floor landing leads past a well-equipped galley kitchen to the gracious living room / dining area enhanced with carved wood paneling and expansive ocean-facing windows. Evoking a bygone era while embracing contemporary comfort the original architectural details have been thoughtfully preserved lending authenticity and charm. This makes for a wonderful entertaining area or a cozy place to sit next to the fireplace. The roomy primary suite has an office alcove with historically accurate reproduction windows, a walk-in closet and a deck overlooking the ocean. The 2nd ensuite bedroom also has ocean views. An additional 520 square feet of unfinished third-floor space awaits your vision.
