Description

100' of Direct Intracoastal Frontage • Private Floating Dock with Water, Electric and Lift • Central Beachside Hamlet • Most Coveted Waterfront Street

Serious boaters and entertainers, this is your legacy address.

Welcome to 206 Canova Drive, a Tuscan-inspired waterfront estate unlike anything else in New Smyrna Beach. Set on a rare 100 feet of direct Intracoastal Waterway with deep water access, a private floating dock (accommodating vessels up to 80') and a boat lift, this home is the ultimate blend of luxury, privacy, and lifestyle.

Privately tucked away on Canova Drive—a street known only to locals and steeped in NSB history—this estate offers more than just location. It offers legacy. The street itself was built around the historic grave of young Charles Dummett, who was killed in a hunting accident and buried where he fell by his grief-stricken father in the early 1860s. It is a place full of stories, secrets, and that rare "IYKYK" charm.

With over 4,000 SF of living space, this 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom compound (including a detached guest house/in-law suite) is an entertainer’s dream and boater’s paradise. Hosting is effortless with room to accommodate more than 150 party guests, multiple indoor-outdoor living areas, a gourmet outdoor kitchen, and two screened-in patios with automatic roll-down screens.

The main home welcomes you through a private courtyard into soaring ceilings, natural light, and an open layout that celebrates both comfort and grandeur. The chef’s kitchen features a gas range, white cabinetry, granite countertops, premium appliances, and a breakfast bar, all flowing into the cozy family room and formal dining space with panoramic river views.

Retreat to the spacious master suite, complete with a newly remodeled spa-style bath and a private balcony overlooking the ICW. Gas fire lamps frame the perfect setting for sunset cocktails or quiet reflection. Additional upstairs bedrooms include one with a Juliet balcony and another with serene water views.

Need space for work or wellness? You’ll find a private office with wine storage, a bonus room with a sauna, and even a home gym.

The detached guest studio offers a full kitchen, private bath, and covered porch with water views—ideal for guests, in-laws, or long-term stays.

Outdoors, the resort-style pool area stuns with Pebble Tec finishes, a tanning ledge, in-water seating with umbrella, spa, and fire pit—all surrounded by lush landscaping and sunset views that will take your breath away.

Located just a short walk to Flagler Avenue, you’re steps from fine dining, shopping, and nightlife, yet tucked into a world entirely your own.

💡 Whole-house generator, two new HVACs, commercial-grade LVP flooring, and more upgrades throughout.

This is more than a home. It’s a lifestyle, a legacy, and a best-kept secret only New Smyrna insiders know about.
