A MULTIPLE-TIME FLORIDA DESIGN MAGAZINE AWARD WINNER, this extraordinary Snell Isle residence is a sophisticated reimagining of the classic Florida ranch, where exceptional design, craftsmanship & true indoor/outdoor living converge. Originally built in 1986, the home was gutted to the studs, expanded & comprehensively redesigned from 2019-2023 by a professional interior designer, representing more than $800k in enhancements. Set on an expansive 11,000+ SF property, the residence offers more than 3k SF with 4 bedrooms/3.5 baths. From the polished black stone-accented concrete driveway & Brazilian Ipe detailing to the dramatic 12-foot foyer with Visual Comfort lighting, the home's design makes an immediate statement. Inside, soaring ceilings, expansive hurricane-rated Origin windows & doors, 7-inch European Oak flooring & thoughtfully curated finishes create interiors that feel bright, airy and sophisticated. At the heart of the home, an expansive, light-filled kitchen offers abundant Bellmont custom cabinetry & a dramatic 10ft waterfall island designed equally for everyday living and effortless entertaining. Leathered Macaubas quartzite, Ann Sacks tile and professional-grade Viking and Wolf appliances elevate the space, while a coordinating wet bar with wine refrigeration extends the entertaining experience. The home's signature feature may be its extraordinary connection to the outdoors. Open all three sets of accordion doors & the interior & Brazilian Ipe-trimmed lanai become one expansive indoor/outdoor living environment overlooking a private tropical oasis.

Lush landscaping, Zoysia lawn, landscape lighting, fruit trees, shell walking path & modern cedar fencing create a remarkably private resort-style setting. Thoughtfully designed for privacy, the primary retreat occupies its own side of the home with outdoor access & spa-inspired bath featuring Graff fixtures, Italian porcelain flooring, frameless shower glass & an MTI air tub. Three additional bedrooms and 2 baths are thoughtfully positioned on the opposite side of the home from the primary suite, providing desirable separation & privacy.
