Description
Set in Sunset Palisades, one of Shell Beach's most desirable coastal neighborhoods, 140 Florin offers a rare combination of scale, ocean views, architectural presence, and a park-side setting. This coastal contemporary residence features clean white stucco architecture, expansive windows, curved balcony details, mature tropical landscaping, and a polished resort-like presence just moments from the beach.
The home makes an immediate impression with a dramatic formal entry, polished black flooring, warm wood detailing, and a sweeping curved staircase. The main living areas are designed around light, views, and entertaining, including a spacious family room with panoramic ocean views, walls of glass, and a private balcony overlooking the front courtyard. The kitchen offers a large center island, bar seating, double ovens, a butler's pantry, and a bright breakfast nook with views toward Ontario Ridge, Palisades Park, and the back courtyard. A separate formal dining room includes built-ins, ocean views, and access to the back deck.
The oversized primary suite is a true private retreat with a fireplace, walk-in closet, back deck access, and views toward Ontario Ridge, Palisades Park, and the beautifully landscaped grounds. The primary bath includes dual vanity space, a large soaking tub, sauna, and generous storage. A richly detailed private office features extensive wood paneling, built-in shelving, a private balcony, and interior glass overlooking the formal entry and staircase below.
The lower level adds exceptional flexibility with a living room/game room, built-in bar, two additional ensuite bedrooms, a large indoor laundry room with abundant storage, and a dumbwaiter connecting to the kitchen. Outdoor living is a major strength of the property, with a large back deck accessible from the kitchen, dining room, and primary suite, leading down to a spacious back courtyard and meticulously maintained grounds. The property also includes a three-car garage.
Backing directly to Palisades Park, the location is hard to beat. Parks, playgrounds, basketball, tennis and pickleball courts, Beachfront South Palisades Park, beach access, Ontario Ridge Trail, and the Bluff Trailhead are all nearby, creating a true Shell Beach lifestyle setting with coastal recreation right outside your door.
