Updated by award-winning designer Barbara Gardner , the interior radiates an estate-style sense of opulence. Extraordinary craftsmanship is evident throughout, highlighted by cove ceilings with inset lighting, custom crown molding, decorative arched alcoves, and warm wood paneling. Private elevator access opens into a refined foyer, where custom iron filigree doors lead to a stately living room adorned with gleaming marble floors and full-height sliding glass doors that frame uninterrupted water, beach, and downtown views. The chef's kitchen features a central island, quartz countertops, paneled Subzero refrigerator, and premium appliances including Bosch double wall ovens, a 5-burner Bosch gas cooktop, Dacor warming drawer, and microwave drawer. Adjacent to the kitchen, a sunlit breakfast nook and dedicated dining area—distinguished by designer lighting and seating for eight—offer unobstructed sightlines across the living space to the Gulf beyond. Out on the primary terrace, an outdoor kitchen equipped with a new DCS gas grill and granite surround extends the living space for al fresco dining. The primary owner's retreat boasts a comfortable sitting area, walk-in closet, and direct terrace access with picture-perfect water views. The oversized primary bath is a spa-like sanctuary featuring a glass-enclosed shower, deep soaking tub, bidet, dual vanities plus a separate makeup vanity, and a convenient morning bar. Each guest bedroom serves as a private getaway with direct terrace access and high-end marble and quartz finishes. Modern infrastructure upgrades include multi-zone smart-home A/C, motorized window treatments, fresh paint, designer wall coverings, and a new water heater.
