Description:

Exceptional in both scale and execution, this custom-built European inspired Villa offers a level of craftsmanship and material quality rarely seen in the market. Thoughtfully updated in 2024, the home stands well above typical new construction, blending architectural drama with refined, enduring finishes. A grand 26-foot double-height foyer introduces the home with a striking 16-foot custom cast iron entry door, setting the tone for interiors defined by volume, light, and precision. Soaring 12-foot ceilings, expansive windows, and a seamless flow create a sense of openness throughout, while full marble flooring across the main and upper levels adds a level of continuity and sophistication seldom achieved. At the center of the home, a sculptural curved marble staircase with custom metal railing serves as a true design focal point. The chef’s kitchen is equally impressive, appointed with furniture-grade cabinetry, a premium Dacor appliance suite, double dishwashers, and a warming drawer, designed for both elevated everyday living and effortless entertaining. Additional highlights include solid wood millwork, 8-foot solid core doors, a private office with custom built-ins, and Pella Architectural Series windows and doors with retractable screens, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor living. The fully finished lower level offers a distinct extension of the home’s lifestyle appeal, featuring a custom bar, private theater room, and generous ceiling height, ideal for entertaining or retreat. Outside, the property delivers a true sense of arrival and privacy, with a curved entry staircase, illuminated water features, professionally designed landscaping, and a resort-style backyard anchored by stone waterfalls. A custom stone driveway, automated entry gate, and oversized three-car garage complete the offering. A rare opportunity to own a home where design, scale, and craftsmanship converge at an uncompromising level.
