Overview
Where the sky opens wide above the Gulf and the shoreline runs uninterrupted, this extraordinary 12,000+ sq. ft. estate stands with a presence that defies comparison. Set on nearly 200 feet of pristine beachfront, the residence is elevated on pilings and wrapped in walls of glass that pull the Gulf’s horizon into every major living space. Inside, soaring cedar ceilings, exposed trusses, and dramatic lines create a sense of volume and warmth that is both refined and inviting. The great room unfolds beneath grand architectural beams and transitions effortlessly to expansive terraces above the sand. A richly crafted lounge with custom bar and billiards area brings a club-like sophistication to the home’s entertainment spaces. The extraordinary chef’s kitchen commands attention with custom inlaid cabinetry, dual oversized islands, professional-grade appliances, and a hidden pantry—ideal for both catered events and everyday living. The second-floor primary suite serves as a private escape with Gulf views, generous sitting area, and a spa-inspired bath. Additional bedroom suites offer privacy for guests, while flexible spaces—including offices, fitness room with sauna, and bonus areas—accommodate a variety of lifestyles. An elevated pool and spa overlook the beach, complemented by multiple decks and outdoor living areas that capture sunrise, sunset, and the sound of the surf. With two elevators, multi-car garage, and exceptional craftsmanship throughout, this is a residence designed for those who seek scale, presence, and true Gulf-front living.
