$1,650,000 - 238 Candelero Drive 111, HUMACAO

No expense was spared in the creation of this exceptional, one-of-a-kind oceanfront residence, offered completely turnkey with imported furnishings, curated artwork, rugs, and fully appointed kitchen and dining accoutrements. Originally purchased new in 2016, and formerly the model unit, the home underwent a meticulous 3.5-year renovation, resulting in a truly bespoke coastal retreat. This first-floor, direct ocean-facing unit features a private gated garden in Building One, protected by natural reefs and offering serene views across lush landscaping, a freshwater pond, and the sea beyond. Entry is through a custom handcrafted 2.5” steel-core door clad in cedar, set over an ipe threshold, designed to withstand hurricane-force conditions. The residence showcases the highest level of craftsmanship throughout: Belgian hurricane-rated double-pane glass with Argon gas, electric storm shutters, custom cedar wainscoting, millwork, built-ins, and trim, Farrow & Ball wallpaper accents, and ceilings ranging from 9–10’ with Level 4 and 5 finishes. All interior doors are custom solid cedar, 8’ high, with Italian magnetic retractable hardware. Designed as a fully integrated smart home, features include Hunter Douglas electric shades, Nest thermostats, U by Moen digital showers, WiFi-enabled appliances, hidden camera surveillance, remote storm shutters and screens, Cloud Edge doorbell, August WiFi deadbolt, hardwired 1GB WiFi nodes throughout, and lead-lined walls for sound and EMF insulation. The chef’s kitchen is equipped with imported stone countertops from Italy, Turkey, and Kashmir, handmade Spanish tile backsplash, Thermador induction cooktop with retractable venting, double ovens, Fisher & Paykel dishwashers, multiple refrigerators, wine fridge, motion-activated faucet, custom cedar cabinetry, pantry, and outdoor buffet area—all fully stocked and included. Living spaces flow seamlessly to a covered patio with cedar-planked ceiling, electric sunscreens, ceiling fans, and a private landscaped garden with advanced drainage, irrigation, and lighting. A Dimplex Optimist fireplace—the only one of its kind in the Caribbean—features a hidden television behind a one-way mirror. The primary suite offers a custom walk-in cedar closet with layered lighting, built-ins, and displays, along with a spa-inspired bath featuring dual digital showers, double vanities, and extensive storage. Two additional guest bedrooms, a guest bath, powder room, and dedicated laundry complete the layout. Additional highlights include whole-home water filtration and softener, tankless hot water, dual-zone central AC with insulated ducting, generator-ready wiring, assigned parking with golf cart space, and extensive custom storage throughout. A rare opportunity to own an irreplaceable, design-forward oceanfront residence in the Caribbean.
