The living room is anchored by a dramatic wood-burning fireplace enhanced by custom floor-to-ceiling millwork, creating a striking focal point within the home.

The adjoining dining area comfortably accommodates large-scale entertaining while remaining connected to the home's primary living spaces.

The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers five bedrooms and five-and-a-half bathrooms within the main residence, including a first-floor primary suite and a second upstairs primary suite with a private balcony overlooking the pool and surrounding acreage. Two additional first-floor bedrooms are connected by a beautifully renovated Jack-and-Jill bath, while an additional upstairs en-suite bedroom provides comfortable accommodations for family and guests.

Throughout the home, carefully selected materials and distinctive finishes create a cohesive sense of style, including imported European porcelain tile, quartzite and marble surfaces, a statement powder bath with a sculptural marble sink, and a beautifully finished pool bath with extensive marble detailing and a walk-in shower.

Outdoor living was designed to embrace the property's peaceful setting. The pool and spa overlook a small pond and are surrounded by expansive outdoor living areas, while the covered outdoor kitchen with grill adds convenience for outdoor dining and entertaining. A detached studio guest house with a full kitchen and bathroom offers exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, a private office, fitness studio, or creative space.

A slate roof and copper patina gutters add timeless character, while an indoor slate fountain with customizable lighting introduces a calming, spa-like presence. Despite its peaceful setting, the estate is just fifteen minutes from Naples’ renowned beaches, where turquoise waters and powder sand define the coastline.
