Occupying one of the largest parcels in Emerald Bay with nearly 100’ of ocean frontage, the residence is positioned to capture dazzling views from every major room. The unique topography of the lot gently descends toward the water’s edge, with spacious terraces and gardens as well as a private spa overlooking the cove. Through a private gate, the waters of the cove below are easily accessed. The home is a warm blend of contemporary design with dramatic volume (near to 20’ in some locations) and walls of glass opening to the vistas. Honed limestone, bleached woods, and crisp white walls combine to make perfect rooms with expanses of glass framing the azure waters. Approximately 7,100 square feet of living area is designed for comfortable living, to maximize views, and proves an inviting plan for entertaining as well. The main public areas are all generously proportioned and open to spacious terraces set spectacularly above the water. The wonderfully private master suite encompasses almost an entire floor and opens to an intimate sunset terrace. The secondary bedroom suites are light, comfortable, private, and enjoy sea views. The view frontage, combined with the setting and extraordinary size of the residence, make for a compelling opportunity. This is simply not to be missed.
