Exceptional in every feature, this magnificent, custom estate positioned on the 1st hole of the notable Palma Ceia Golf Course, showcases superb craftsmanship, state-of-the-art technology, picturesque settings, and fabulous amenities. This impressive residence, built in 2018 by RSB Construction, offers sophisticated entertaining spaces throughout. Making it the perfect home for informal gatherings or large events. Situated on 1/2 an acre, the European, inspired gardens offer an enchanting setting. Enjoy cool fall evenings, around the oversized stone fire-pit. Watch the sun set over the golf course under the pergola. Or set up a dance floor on the pavered multipurpose area. The thoughtful, landscape plan includes paths joining the spaces leading to a stunning arched porte-cochere transitioning to the front of the home. The stately entrance features an electronic gate and brick pavered courtyard with a 4-car garage. Approach the cobblestone archway leading to the grand, arched, double doors. The meticulous craftsmanship is apparent upon entry. And while the expansive ceiling heights and room sizes evoke impressions of grandeur, the home, still imparts a feeling of warmth and comfort. The formal great room features 14 feet ceilings with elegant, coffered millwork, a stately, wood burning fireplace, and ample space for both dining and living. Open the three sets of French doors and dine al fresco on the covered lanai. Or raise the retractable screens and extend your enjoyment into the garden. Leading to the kitchen is a gorgeous, brick barreled archway, another exceptional detail that sets this jewel apart. The kitchen features wood beamed ceilings, marble counters, custom cabinetry, professional grade Capital Connoisseurian 48” gas range, 30” Subzero column fridge and freezer, 24” Subzero wine cooler and warming drawer. The adjacent breakfast nook provides the perfect setting to enjoy family meals. There are also two walk in pantries, a small den, downstairs laundry, a drop zone and back staircase. Across from the great room, the family room is ideal for game watching parties. With a full wet bar with Scotsman icemaker and a wall of sliders opening to the screened pool lanai, it is the epitome of indoor/outdoor living. Watch one of three TVs in the extended space or use the large retractable screen by the saltwater pool. The outdoor kitchen features an oversized TEC Infrared grill, XL Big Green Egg, and more. Back inside, follow the arched hallway to the primary retreat. Resplendent with vaulted ceilings, an abundance of natural light and views of the garden, the large bedroom and sitting area create a true sanctuary. The primary bath is elegant and timeless with marble floors, tile and counters. Both closets are also generous in scope and size. Completing the first level is a private study. Upstairs, there is a sizable bonus room, private library and expansive laundry room. All three secondary bedrooms offer walk-in closets and attached baths. Beyond the other bedrooms, find an impressive, secluded guest wing. There is also a fabulous one-bedroom apartment above the garage with a kitchenette, living room, bedroom, and full bath. The home features a Generac generator, impact rated windows and doors, and Control4 smart system to manage lighting, security, temperature, media and surround sound throughout. This gorgeous estate will be featured on HGTV as an inspiration home in 2024, but you can see it in person!
