With more than 5,000 miles of coastline in the continental Unites States, there are abundant opportunities to enjoy the distinct pleasures of oceanfront living. The sound of the surf which lulls you sleep and the invigorating scent of the sea air makes the oceanfront lifestyle a cherished part of American life. The amount of oceanfront land able to be built upon is ever diminishing, meaning oceanfront property continues to be the best investment in the real estate market.
The diversity of the American shoreline is stunning, from jagged rocky cliffs to miles long sandy beaches bordering coastal savannahs. Oceanfront real estate can be found in close proximity to major cities or in remote barrier islands accessible only by ferry boat. The Atlantic coast is known for its rich maritime traditions and historic towns from Maine to Florida. The cooler waters of the Pacific coast offer dramatic, picturesque scenery where oceanfront elevations can soar above the rocky beaches below. Waterfront property along the Gulf of Mexico ranges from the west coast of Florida to the tip of Texas and features the calmer Gulf waters and beautiful white sand beaches.
With American’s love affair with the sea, every kind of home style can be found along the coasts. For some, a primary residence set high on the dune overlooking the ocean is the ultimate in beachfront living. Classic beach cottages can be found nestled along the shore, harking back to the previous century’s architectural styles. Others enjoy oceanfront homes as second or vacation homes and take advantage of rental income as well. High rise, low-maintenance condominiums continue to be very popular oceanfront option, with more and more of these projects offering resort style amenities and the security of gated entrances.
Whether you seek the ocean views from a beachfront high-rise or the serenity of an ocean view estate, US Private Communities features the finest coastal waterfront homes and land.
