Stuck in your cubicle dreaming of a beachfront vacation? We just found your dream home.

Listed for $2.6 million, this modern beach oasis in Islamorada, FL, is summer-ready with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a vast sandy beach.

Because you’ll spend an equal amount of time on the water, boat storage is paramount. This place has you covered with a splashy twist for nautically inclined buyers. Once you’re done with a day on the ocean, you guide your vessel back into your private channel. After you dock, a pair of lifts “hoist your boat straight up out of the water and move it forward so it can be stored safely under the house.”

On the home’s main floor, an open floor plan with plenty of windows makes the space feel bright and airy. The exposed beam ceiling gives the place a vintage, fun vibe. And, of course, there’s a giant kitchen with plenty of space to cook your freshly caught fish and a wine fridge to chill those after-dinner drinks.

And all that sun won’t get you down, even in a record-breaking heat wave. The home’s angled design helps the ocean breeze pass through, keeping those cooling costs down.

Upstairs, the master suite has a tropical yet modern feel thanks to the combo of wood-paneled walls and floor-to-ceiling windows. There’s also a balcony with ocean views.

At the end of the day, you can head to your enclosed sun porch and enjoy the sunset secure in the knowledge your boat is tucked away safe and sound.
