Description

No expense was spared in the creation of this custom luxury residence, ideally positioned within the exclusive Estates of Marco Island. The home enjoys partial views across Roberts Bay and offers quick, direct boating access to Caxambas Pass and the Gulf, setting the stage for an exceptional coastal lifestyle. From the moment you enter, exquisite finishes, one-of-a-kind custom tile work, and carefully curated architectural details reflect a commitment to craftsmanship and elevated design throughout. Built in 2017, the residence offers approximately 3,467 square feet under air in the main living areas, complemented by a separately conditioned hobby room that adds remarkable flexibility. The open floor plan is anchored by a spacious great room that seamlessly connects the kitchen, living area, breakfast nook, and open den, creating a layout equally suited for everyday living and entertaining. Vaulted ceilings soaring up to 21 feet and eight-foot solid core doors enhance the sense of scale and light. The kitchen blends high-end performance with understated elegance, featuring a JennAir cooktop and double ovens, a newer Whirlpool refrigerator, and a hidden walk-in pantry concealed behind cabinetry for a clean, uninterrupted aesthetic. The home includes two true primary suites, thoughtfully separated for privacy, along with additional guest accommodations. Pocket doors allow the guest wing to be closed off from the main living areas, and the guest bath doubles as a pool bath for added convenience. A 456-square-foot air-conditioned hobby room with its own entrance and dedicated HVAC system offers the potential for a mother-in-law suite, caregiver quarters, fitness studio, or additional bedroom. Comfort and reliability are built into every aspect of the home, with two main HVAC systems plus a separate system for the hobby room, a whole-house generator, two tankless water heaters, hurricane shutters at the rear, remote-controlled shade screens, a security system, and integrated Sonos audio throughout. A four-car garage with epoxy flooring provides ample space for vehicles and storage, while paver walkways along the side of the home create easy access to the waterfront. For boating enthusiasts, the property delivers exceptional infrastructure. A newer 148-foot seawall, completed in 2015, anchors the expansive water frontage, while a custom dock system is equipped with both a 58,000-pound lift and a 12,000-pound lift. The generous paver dock area allows for waterfront entertaining and effortless access to the water, seamlessly extending the outdoor living experience beyond the pool deck and lanai. With no history of water intrusion and proactive flood panels already installed, this residence combines luxury, foresight, and functionality. It is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously designed waterfront home that offers both refined living and immediate access to the open waters that define the Marco Island lifestyle.
