Beautifully done, low-maintenance landscaping alive with native trees lit at night surround the ipe-wood courtyard, brick-lined curves of the drive, and pergola-topped garages in two wings. Even the recently painted cedar siding, topped with a copper roof with multiple peaks and angles adding visual interest, is designed to blend with the beauty of the setting. Outdoor spaces are plentiful, including two private second-story balconies, a screened porch with outdoor fireplace and outdoor TV, and a stainless gas grill built into a countertop tucked into the curve of one of two brick-accented staircases leading down to the ipe-wood pool deck.

Gracefully curving wooden stairs lead up from the courtyard to the home’s covered porch and glass-fronted entry. Inside, the Savannah gray brick flooring of the foyer is set in a herringbone pattern divided with strips of polished oak. A vaulted ceiling with creamily painted wooden beams rises overhead, and across the length of the foyer, a glass door set into a wall of windows showcases the water views.

To the right of the foyer, the brick flooring extends along a window-lined gallery with transomed square columns. The gallery opens along its full length to a great room 41 feet feet wide, streaming with sunlight from walls of two-story floor-to-ceiling windows to each side. Richly stained heart-of-pine flooring lies beneath the soaring, pale-beamed vaulted ceiling.

To one end of the great room, twin clerestory windows invite yet more light inside above a dining space overlooking the tranquil lagoon, and a set of wooden antique French doors open to the screened porch. To the other end is the room’s conversation area, centered around a two-story chimney wall and gas fireplace with a tall wooden mantel and brick surround. The space behind it is flanked by one of the home’s two powder rooms and a brick-floored bar and butler’s pantry with a bar sink, undercounter Sub-Zero® wine cooler, two Sub-Zero refrigerator drawers, icemaker, and plentiful underlit cabinetry.

The recently remodeled kitchen lies to a second side of the screened porch. A wide center island with breakfast bar, cabinetry painted in French blue, and pale quartzite countertop lies beneath pendants and wooden ceiling beams of creamiest white. A row of four tall windows over the stainless single-basin sink overlook the water beside clean-lined ceiling-height Shaker cabinetry of palest gray, and knotty heart-of-pine flooring stretches underfoot. The top-tier appliances, all stainless but for the paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator and dual Bosch® dishwashers, include a Wolf® six-burner gas cooktop beneath a white subway tile backsplash, Wolf dual ovens, and Wolf microwave drawer. To one side, wooden, sidelighted French doors open to the screened porch, and to the other, a walk-in pantry with a sink, washer, and dryer lie behind a pocket door.

The estate’s remaining family living space can also be found in the kitchen wing. Accessed via a private, windowed staircase with a windowed half-bath tucked beneath, the sunny second-floor study sits beneath vaulted ceilings. Complete with a galley kitchenette including stainless sink, undercounter Kalamera® beverage refrigerator, and open shelving, it also features built-in cabinetry lining walls below rows of windows, extra storage space beneath the eaves, and a sidelight-flanked glass door opening to a large, private, second-story sundeck overlooking the lagoon.

The estate’s primary suite lies in the opposite wing. To the other side of the home’s foyer, tucked into its own entry hall, arched antique doors imported from France open to the primary bedroom with its shiplap ceiling crossed with beams of pale wood, heart-of-pine flooring, large plantation-shuttered windows, and a private sitting area tucked into a large sunroom niche. The bath features his-and-her vanities on opposite walls, his-and-hers water closets, a soaking tub set beneath windows, and a generously sized frameless-glass walk-in shower with multiple showerheads and built-in bench in strikingly veined tile. Completing the spacious bath is a windowed dressing alcove with built-in drawers, a walk-in closet, his-and-hers linen closets, walls of additional closets, and a windowed, private laundry room with a sink and stacked washer and dryer.

Opening beyond the primary suite is a lanterned walkway crossing above the home’s courtyard—also accessed via an outdoor staircase—leading to the home’s high-ceilinged guesthouse. A glass exterior door opens to the guest living room with its coffee nook, complete with hammered metal sink and undercounter Kalamera beverage refrigerator. The room opens to three guest spaces: a window-lined bonus room with angled shiplap ceiling and louvered clerestory windows, affectionately termed the “sleeping porch,” and twin corner suites. In each, an antique door imported from France opens to a bedroom 23 feet deep with tall twin windows overlooking the treetops, gorgeously stained heart-of-pine flooring, his-and-hers louvered closets, and a transomed door leading to a split bath with vaulted ceiling, his-and-hers sinks, soaking tub set beneath windows, and a wide, windowed, frameless-glass walk-in shower.

The estate’s remaining guest suite is privately located on the second floor above the primary suite. A windowed staircase leads up to a bedroom with a cozy and yet spectacular octagonal vaulted ceiling, door-height windows on two walls, and glass door leading to a private balcony overlooking the lagoon and golf views. Built-in shelving and cabinetry include a niche with vessel sink, and in the windowed bath is a frameless-glass alcove shower.

Additional features of this nature retreat, include an elevator to the first floor; copper lanterns, gutters, and downspouts; two recently replaced geothermal heating and air systems; security and irrigation systems; dehumidified garages with space for three cars and wiring for an electric car; abundant under-house storage space; potting shed; and a fenced area in the rear. Fine homebuilder Brian Coco, whose firm constructed the estate to impeccable standards, has maintained the home from its inception.
