An opulent two-story foyer sets the stage for entertaining. The oceanview living room, with voluminous ceilings and enormous walls of glass, balances the alluring seascape with a sophisticated, yet comfortable style. The floor-to-ceiling coquina gas fireplace provides instant ambiance. A classic formal dining room is offset by coquina pillars and low glass walls that preserve the home’s airy feel and retain an unimpeded ocean view. Public spaces continue as the home wraps around the patio deck and lanai with a full entertainment bar that seats eight. The massive oceanview family room repeats the living room’s theme of volume ceilings and oversized windows, adding a second coquina gas fireplace, electronics and a flat screen TV. The full-size informal family dining area, open between the kitchen and family room, has an ocean view, but also overlooks a waterfall and small pond. The sizable kitchen includes a liberal gourmet cook island with gas stovetop. Crisp SieMatic cabinetry with pull-out shelving provide ample storage. Amenities include integrated SubZero refrigerator and freezer, two dishwashers, double ovens, desk area and breakfast bar. The ground floor also includes a 2,000 bottle temperature-controlled wine room, powder room, an oceanfront guest bedroom, octagonal library office with full bath and a private media room with surround sound and wonderfully textured walls.

The second floor hosts the magnificent master bedroom suite that opens to a broad covered terrace overlooking the pool and ocean beyond. Electric draperies let you manage the sunrises, moonbeams and starlight without getting out of bed! A sitting area with morning bar stretches out to the east with windows overlooking the family room, borrowing the view from its two-story windows. The master bathroom sets the standard for luxury: A jetted Roman bath, dual headed rainforest shower, two water closets and a glamorous oceanview dressing room. The fully-customized oversized closet room, complete with laundry chute, has plenty of room for two. The upstairs has three additional bedrooms with superbly appointed baths, some with private balconies.

In homage to the modern luxury lifestyle, the upper level of the West Wing houses two extraordinary museum rooms. Each marble-floored gallery features finely crafted and impeccably lit display cases for exhibiting worldly treasures. These twin galleries, joined by a graceful archway, are equipped for passionate collectors, but could be easily adapted to other entertaining or studio uses. Naturally, the West Wing also houses an executive office. It has richly paneled walls and ceiling, custom cabinetry, French doors and a balcony overlooking the courtyard. Beyond the office is a leather-clad billiard/media room with a distinctive coffered ceiling, fully appointed bar and an oversized flat screen HDTV. A stunning bathroom nearby is adorned with stained glass and Venetian plaster walls. At entry level, the West Wing’s tour de force is a spectacular five-bay automotive showroom. Car connoisseurs will appreciate the unique flooring, wainscoting, Venetian plaster walls, recessed lighting and interior plantation shutters that all control the room’s ambiance. (A similar three-bay garage is located at street level beneath the guest house, for a total of eight automobile bays.) This level of the West Wing also has a full gym with snack bar, bath and dry-or-steam sauna. The gym features a window wall overlooking the car collection.
