About 3 Stella Del Mare Manor
Cross your private bridge into one of Hilton Head Island's most distinctive oceanfront enclaves. Stella del Mare is one of only three beachfront communities on the island where short term rentals are not permitted, offering a level of privacy increasingly difficult to find along the Hilton Head shoreline. Set directly on Bradley Beach, this 4BR, 5.5BA Mediterranean estate was nationally featured for its extraordinary architecture and craftsmanship. Three years in the making, the residence was conceived as an authentic Italian villa with an uncompromising emphasis on quality, permanence, and detail. European inspired craftsmanship is showcased throughout with hand carved limestone, custom mahogany millwork, walnut flooring, silk wall coverings, Venetian glass, architectural antiques, and an extraordinary, hand-crafted iron staircase that took nearly two years to complete. Substantial construction, including the Hebel Block system and exceptionally thick walls, complements interiors designed to frame the Atlantic Ocean from throughout the residence. Outdoor living is equally impressive with multiple oceanfront balconies, elevator, and recently renovated pool and spa overlooking the ocean. Significant recent investment includes complete exterior stucco refinishing, a new geothermal HVAC system, and extensive pool and landscape renovations. More than a beachfront residence, Stella del Mare offers a rare opportunity to own an architecturally significant Hilton Head Island estate created with materials, craftsmanship, and attention to detail seldom replicated today, all within a private oceanfront setting free from weekly rental turnover.
