A Masterpiece of Unparalleled Elegance on the Intracoastal A rare opportunity to own an architectural triumph—this 12,000-square-foot gated estate is the epitome of European craftsmanship, set on three private acres with 130 feet of direct Intracoastal waterfront. Designed over five years at a cost exceeding $11 million, this palatial masterpiece would require nearly $20 million to replicate today. A grand stone-paved drive, flanked by imported sculptures, leads to a majestic motor court centered by a custom marble fountain. The travertine-clad exterior, French mahogany windows, and handcrafted mahogany doors with African wood inlays and 24-karat gold fixtures set the tone for the opulence within. Step into the stunning foyer, where a dome ceiling imported from Italy and painted by Poli Verona crowns a grand staircase by Luis Beltran. The home is adorned with solid Carrara marble columns, open book marble flooring, and an entryway inlaid with a now-extinct marble—a true collector’s rarity. Crystal chandeliers from Milan illuminate each space, complementing the meticulously curated ceiling and floor designs. Designed for grand-scale entertaining, the home boasts a great room with soaring 24-foot ceilings, a lavish bar with intricate mosaic tile artwork, and a private movie theater featuring a Rolls-Royce-inspired Starlite ceiling and hand-painted Hollywood portraits. The expansive atrium, lined with panoramic water views, seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living. The main kitchen showcases Italian walnut cabinetry by Aster Cucine, while a separate chef’s kitchen with commercial-grade appliances ensures seamless catering via the butler’s pantry. The primary suite is an oasis of grandeur, featuring rosewood flooring and ceiling beams, a private balcony, a sitting room, office/gym, and two opulent walk-in closets. The spa-like master bath boasts dual private water closets with bidets, a steam shower, and heated towel bars. Each guest suite offers a private balcony and en suite bath, providing five-star accommodations. Outdoors, the estate continues to impress with a 20’ x 60’ floating-edge pool and spa, framed by a custom-designed marble pergola. The veranda and sprawling outdoor entertaining spaces offer breathtaking water views, perfect for hosting unforgettable gatherings. A well-appointed guesthouse with a kitchen, living area, and two en suite bedrooms ensures privacy for visitors. A residence of this caliber is not merely a home—it is an unparalleled statement of prestige, craftsmanship, and timeless luxury.
