About this home
Virtually Staged. Discover a one-of-a-kind Bethune Beach coastal retreat on a quiet dead-end street in New Smyrna Beach, ideally positioned near no-drive beach access, the Halifax River, and Canaveral National Seashore. This updated three-story 3-bedroom, 3-bath home blends distinctive architectural character, relaxed indoor-outdoor living, and flexible income potential. The third-floor primary retreat opens to a wraparound balcony with peaceful Halifax River and mangrove views, an inviting setting for morning coffee, coastal breezes, and sunset skies. The thoughtfully designed interior features a gourmet kitchen with gas cooktop, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances, along with neutral luxury vinyl plank flooring, custom crown molding, stone accent walls, an electric fireplace, built-in breakfast banquette, and a striking spiral staircase. A private-entry first-floor one-bedroom living area offers a kitchenette, full bath, in-unit laundry, flexible bonus room, and second exterior entrance, ideal for guests, a studio, workspace, multigenerational living, or 30-day-plus rental use. Enjoy a resort-inspired outdoor setting with mature tropical landscaping, landscape lighting, Trex composite decking, solar-lit pavers, a sail-shade-covered patio, outdoor kitchen with Argentine charcoal grill, fire pit, two-person barrel sauna, and outdoor shower. Major 2023 improvements include a durable metal roof, impact-rated double-pane windows and sliders, main-home HVAC, dedicated mini-split for the lower-level living area, separate water heaters for the main home and lower level, and a bathroom skylight. A rare opportunity to own a character-rich beachside home offering location, lifestyle, flexibility, and long-term potential. Thirty-day-or-longer rental use is subject to buyer verification of all applicable zoning, licensing, and local requirements.
