Architecture & Facade
The exterior reads as a classically composed French Provincial elevation: steeply pitched slate roofing, stone surrounds at the windows and entries, and graceful balustrades along the upper-level balconies. Sculptured landscaping frames the symmetrical facade, reinforcing the formality of the approach. A three-car garage with additional storage anchors the motor court side of the property.
Interior Sequence
The entry foyer is organized around a grand staircase that serves as the home's central vertical axis, complemented by a private elevator for full-floor access. Hardwood and marble flooring run throughout the principal rooms. The formal living room is anchored by a fireplace, and a dedicated library provides a quieter space suited to work or reading.
The formal dining room connects to a large butler's pantry and wet bar, creating a service corridor designed for hosting at scale. The eat-in kitchen pairs high-end appliances with a layout that accommodates both daily use and casual entertaining.
The primary suite occupies a private wing with an expansive balcony overlooking the pool and gardens. His-and-hers walk-in closets open to separate bathrooms with high-end finishes, and an adjoining sitting room completes the suite. A guest suite on the upper level also includes its own balcony with garden and pool views.
Outdoor Living & Grounds
A large wraparound loggia extends the living space outdoors, connecting to the heated in-ground pool with a dedicated pool bath. The grounds feature professionally maintained gardens visible from the upper-level balconies and the primary and guest suites. The property's 0.45-acre lot provides scale uncommon for this section of the island.
