Description

An oceanfront villa and tropical resort compound, this remarkable architectural estate commands gorgeous ocean views from an ultra-private bluff above Paradise Cove. More than approximately 2.5 acres of landscaped beauty, exquisite design, and walls of glass create a majestic setting for lavish indoor-outdoor entertaining and a lifestyle of sublime comfort, complete with tennis court, pool, private beach, gym, billiards room, movie theatre, wine cellar, and four private guest apartments. The long gated drive meanders among trees, past two tree houses, tennis court and pavilion, subterranean garage with room for eight or more vehicles, and enormous mirrored gym to arrive at huge motor court between the home's wide, backswept wings. Two stories of glass offer a preview of the grand foyer, with its shimmering 18-foot, floor-to-ceiling crystal chandelier suspended through a sweeping circular staircase with etched glass panels. Across the foyer is the grand living/dining/bar room with wraparound glass that opens from the prow-like living room to the spacious pool- and ocean-view deck. Absolutely sensational professional kitchen has black floors, enormous hanging pot rack over Nano glass island, extensive counter and storage space, professional appliances, stainless cabinets, butler's pantry, and an elevator for service to the lower level. The main floor east wing, beyond the kitchen, has a powder room, laundry room, and playroom with a mirrored wall, ballet barre, and en-suite bathroom. The main floor west wing has another powder room, an en-suite bedroom with a private balcony, and an en-suite office/bedroom that opens to an ocean-view wraparound balcony. The light-filled upper floor is home to a sumptuous owner's suite, two additional en-suite bedrooms, and one of the apartments. Ocean-view owner's suite has prow shaped sitting area, wraparound floor-to-ceiling windows, and balcony, gorgeous bath with dual fixtures and a 15-head shower, plus an amazing closet with two generous sections, built-ins, illuminated shelves, mirrored vanity, and doors to a private ocean view balcony. Upper floor east wing apartment features living room, kitchenette, bedroom, and full bath. Beyond the apartment is an open patio/deck area with a dining table. The home's lower level mirrors the layout of the main floor. Spacious, prow-shaped living/sitting room, with wet bar and a kitchenette, faces onto the pool and expansive pool deck. The opulent 20-seat movie theatre has a large screen, Dolby sound, and a separate projection room. Also on this level are two en-suite bedrooms, billiards room, powder room, bathroom, and second kitchen with walk-in refrigerator and storage. Off the garage is a larger laundry room, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and an industrial kitchen for large-scale entertaining. A pathway from the garage leads to another apartment, which also has a sitting area, kitchenette, bedroom and full bath. A third apartment is located along the driveway that leads down to the beach. The fourth and largest apartment, with living room, dining area, kitchenette, two en-suite bedrooms and additional bathroom, is located down a set of stairs off the backyard. With its prow-shaped infinity pool, fire pit, well-equipped outdoor kitchen, and huge pool deck, the backyard faces onto stunning ocean and island views. At the side of the property is a gated beach road, a private playground, another outdoor living/dining area, and a lighted two-tier beach patio. Stairs lead down to a private Paradise Cove beach cabana with day beds and lounge seating. The home and grounds are beautifully landscaped and lighted, with smart-home technology, security cameras and generous amounts of guest parking. This is a compound of rare quality, enchanting beauty, and singular architectural integrity.
