Beautiful, custom home designed by current, original sellers who left no detail unturned. The home has impressive curb appeal, due to lovely landscaping and the two wrought iron clad balconies gracing the second floor rooms. Upon entering this spacious home, you are greeted by 22-foot ceilings above the marble flooring in the foyer and expansive living room, which features a fireplace, French doors that open to a massive porch overlooking the pool and canal. Additional French doors lead into the kitchen,directly off the living area, which serves as the separate dining room, but which could easily be placed into the livingroom for those preferring a living/dining combination. Be prepared, however, to be enchanted by the kitchen as it stands, with its longkitchen table suitable for at least 10, a built in desk and library, sofa area and a marble island with sink that serves as both a work space and eating area. As if these spaces alone were not enough to entice the discerning buyer, imagine having two master suites--one downstairs with doors leading to the pool area, and one upstairs with a sitting logia and back stairs leading to the pool as well. The downstairs master includes a large walk-in closet, a built-in closet for him, and walk-in for her, witha massive double, steam shower, marble flooring and countertops, heat lamp, and Jacuzzi tub with waterfall. The upstaris master features a fireplace, large walk-in closet with dressing area. Two additional guest bedrooms on a second level share a bath.
