Surf, Sun & Soulful Design in the Heart of Rockaway!

Welcome to the breathtaking Wabi Sabi Beach House - a rare coastal retreat just half a block
from Rockaway's legendary surf beach and boardwalk. This exquisite home is tucked on a 25x100 ft lot with private parking and surrounded by native edible landscaping. Thoughtfully and uniquely renovated, this house blends beachy ease with mindful design and a deep sense of peace. Truly a one of kind home for a one of a kind buyer.

From the moment you arrive, you'll feel it-the stillness, the calm. The front and backyards are living, breathing ecosystems designed by an award-winning international landscape architecture firm. Sponge landscaping with structural soil reduces flooding, while coastal native plantings like blueberry, plum, and chokeberry nourish both pollinators and people. Inside, natural textures and warm materials create a grounding energy throughout. Radiant-heated basement and first floor bathroom, reclaimed barn hemlock floors, a Blaze King wood-burning stove, and an original vintage front door from a 1950s Portuguese speakeasy set the tone. The sprawling open living room centers around the cabin-like wood burning fire place making winters cozy and warm. Not just a summer retreat, but a year round home. The kitchen features a custom cement countertop inlaid with sea glass from the coast of Japan, iridescent pool tile backsplash, and a Fisher Paykel drawer dishwasher. The space opens through a NanaWall glass system to a tranquil screened porch, perfect for morning tea after a surf session or sunset dinners.

This is a home built for wellness, creativity, and presence. A 6-person Finnish cedar sauna, cold plunge tub with dedicated ice machine, and radiant-heated Cle -tiled bathroom offer restorative experiences at every level. The soundproof music studio invites deep focus and expression. Throughout the home are details like custom stained glass-a serene Buddha and a nod to Picasso's Cote d'Azur-adding quiet moments of beauty and reflection. Upstairs, enjoy a Japanese soaking tub, handmade flourishes, ocean-facing decks, and a hidden door to the top floor. The second floor has a unique bedroom with a wall of reclaimed windows allowing light and air to flow effortlessly through the home. You can watch movies on the projector sitting in the tub or from your extra large lounge seating. Through the secret door to the third floor you'll find a peaceful retreat: a floor through primary bedroom with wide-plank pine floors and a gem of a bathroom featuring Italian plaster walls, and a stone-floor rain shower. The Velux Cabrio balcony skylight can be opened wide to allow you to sleep with the sound of the sea and view of the stars.

A ladder leads to your private roof deck where panoramic views stretch from Rockaway Beach to New York City and beyond. Whether you're surfing at sunrise or stargazing under the wide Atlantic sky, this home invites you to breathe deeper, slow down, and simply be.

The Wabi Sabi Beach House is offered furnished or unfurnished - please inquire. There are split units for cooling and heating, Runtal baseboard heating, and a brand new instant Navien water heater. Low taxes and parking.

Located in the most desirable part of Rockaway Beach just blocks from famous restaurants and bars like Rippers, Rockaway Taco, Umas, and Connolly's (to name a few). Only 4 blocks from the Shuttle stop on Beach 90th and 10 blocks to of the express Ferry that takes you from Wall Street to Rockaway in less than an hour! The Army Corps of Engineers has undertaken extensive work in Rockaway, primarily focused on coastal storm risk management and flood protection. This includes dredging, beach nourishment, and the construction of groins and a seawall. Endless investment is being made to keep this part of NYC intact. This is a true opportunity to own an incredibly magical home in the beach town of the future.
