Description of Property
Presenting your dream-come-true of coastal living with this exceptional OCEAN-FRONT LOT, ideally located on the secluded, no-drive section of Bethune Beach. This tranquil stretch of shoreline lies between the unspoiled beauty of the Canaveral National Seashore and the vibrant charm of Flagler Avenue and Canal Street. Just a short stroll from the iconic JB’s Fish Camp, and only moments from Intracoastal boat ramps, boutique shopping, fine dining, and local entertainment, this property places you in the heart of Florida’s quintessential beachside lifestyle. Set among beautifully maintained, custom-built, multi-million dollar homes, this prime lot offers a rare opportunity to create a private beachfront retreat that embodies timeless coastal elegance. Best of all, it is NOT in a flood zone, is protected by a county-maintained seawall—providing both long-term value along with a staffed lifeguard stand providing peace of mind. Zoned Tourist B-8, the property allows for legal 30-day short-term rentals, making it not only a rare find but also a highly flexible investment opportunity—surrounded by luxury seaside homes. Adding to its pedigree, the lot is currently owned by nationally renowned architect David Harper, described by Wikipedia as one of the "Most Notable Architects of the 21st Century" and the recipient of more than 20 awards for design excellence. Mr. Harper has already crafted a breathtaking residence specifically for this site—an architectural statement that elevates everyday living into an art form, should you choose to bring it to life. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape, a luxurious vacation home, or a high-performing income property, this is your chance to own a truly unique piece of ocean-front paradise—where natural beauty, relaxed sophistication, and future potential converge.
