Ready to fall in love? Elegant and modern, yet understated and warm, this amazingly well-conceived and designed home will delight you at every turn. It has a bright beachy vibe created for the owner by noted Cooper Union architect George Decker who did so many notable properties on LBI. As you drive up gorgeous Barbara Drive and turn into 1151 you encounter the pools and waterfall designed by David Tisherman of Liquid Design in Los Angeles and an instructor at UCLA. This project was featured in a national magazine when it was completed and adds a soothing and zen-like ambiance to the multiple outdoor living spaces. From the front, the size of the house you are about to enter is very deceiving as you will soon see.  A bona fide moat and path to the front door from the upper driveway creates a  unique and fun entrance to the home. The 2 story foyer with its vaulted ceiling is lit by a circular skylight and sets the stage for so much to follow. Once inside this sprawling home, you will find custom areas devoted to every conceivable pursuit that are as comforting as they are impressive. The entire home is decorated with impeccable and occasionally whimsical taste in a soothing and modern palette. To the right is the formal living and dining room with a barrel-vaulted ceiling and a private terrace overlooking the waterfall and pools. To the left is the perfect maple kitchen with island, designed by Joanne Hudson of Philadelphia with granite and top of the line stainless steel appliances including a professional range and hood by Dacor, a Sub Zero refrigerator and dishwasher by Miele. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home with all these adjacent spaces: an eating terrace for the warmer months, a large dining area for everyday meals, a comfortable reading nook and a huge family room with a gas fireplace. All flooded with warmth and sunlight from multiple windows, transom windows, sliding doors, and skylights. There is a lovely and private den with built-in desk, 3 charming bedrooms for family or guests, and a spectacular master suite.
