About this home

Step into an architectural masterpiece on Venice Island, where craftsmanship, global design, and grand-scale living converge. This custom-built estate spans over 5,000 square feet and is anchored by a true restaurant-style kitchen - a rare feature in residential luxury - complete with a commercial gas stove and broiler, restaurant-grade sinks with rinse-down hose, floor drain for full wash-down capability, double warming drawers, dual sinks each with garbage disposals, and a full refrigerator/freezer setup designed for high-volume entertaining and professional-level performance. Designed with intentional separation, the kitchen features a classic swinging restaurant door that discreetly divides it from the main living spaces, along with a second private entry from the garage, allowing seamless service flow and behind-the-scenes preparation - keeping entertaining polished, effortless, and uninterrupted for guests. From the moment you arrive, the grand circular governor’s driveway crafted with brick pavers sets the tone for the sophistication within. Stunning custom Honduran red mahogany double front doors open to reveal a breathtaking interior where Italian floor tiles and Spanish marble create a seamless fusion of opulence and warmth. Custom iron railings, masterfully crafted in Berlin, accentuate the architectural beauty, while exquisite stained glass windows cast a mesmerizing glow throughout the home. The residence offers dual primary suites, one on each level, delivering exceptional privacy and flexibility. The upstairs retreat is accessed by a private custom spiral staircase and both levels feature sweeping double-decker balconies spanning the width of the home, overlooking the resort-style heated saltwater pool, spa, and gazebo. Peek-a-boo views of Robert’s Bay await from the second-story balcony. Additional highlights include a private library with wet bar and gas fireplace, a private gym with en-suite bath, a bath with direct access to the pool, and an oversized three-car garage. Infrastructure upgrades include filtered drinking water throughout the entire home, a new roof, two water heaters, three air-conditioning units, a 500-gallon underground propane tank, whole-house sound system, Lutron system, and integrated security system. Impact glass windows and doors, along with a whole-house generator, provide peace of mind year-round. Set on a .31-acre elevated lot and, according to the owner, never having experienced flooding, this estate stands as a testament to superior construction and prime Venice Island positioning. Originally designed as an entertainer’s paradise, the home has hosted political and social events alike, offering a level of scale, function, and presence rarely found.
