Island Breeze

True to its moniker, "Island Breeze", this custom-crafted home was thoughtfully designed to honor its distinctive West Indies style. Upon entry, guests feel immediately at home in a carefully curated environment that is infinitely comfortable and effortlessly elegant, designed to accommodate a large gathering or a 5:00 cheeseboard with the same graceful aplomb. With a design that makes the kitchen, great room, and dining room the heart of family life, 10' walls combined with voluminous 12'-16' ceilings define the main living area creating a space best described as 'spacious but not ostentatious' with style characterized by thoughtful attention to symmetry and proportion. The upscale kitchen offers custom-crafted 42" soft-close cabinetry w/glass doors, a wine rack, pull-outs for spices/pans, and a coffee station. The resident chef will appreciate professional-grade Kitchen-Aid appliances including a 6-burner gas range with a convection oven, a multi-door refrigerator, dishwasher, a space-saving microwave, exotic marble countertops, a Koehler Farmhouse sink, and a custom pantry w/double glass doors. Nearby, the laundry room has built-in shelving/storage niches, a desk, and an oversized Whirlpool washer/dryer. Connecting the indoors to the outdoor oasis was a top priority in the design of this home, with 90-degree sliders that open to the oversized lanai (comprised of artistic pavers manufactured in Miami), where a custom-designed heated saltwater pool with an 8' cascading waterfall, stepping stones, a sun shelf w/two pool loungers, and an extended height pool cage w/clear-view screen to maximize water views --all with a highly coveted Northwestern exposure and an intersecting canal view, await. Fuss-free furniture is arranged to encourage leisurely conversation and relaxation, and there is a cozy fire pit to ease the chill of cool evenings. The nearby cabana exudes casual sophistication with its hand-crafted Cypress ceiling, sink, grill, refrigerator, and built-in ice bin. An island with a granite top is a natural gathering place for family and friends, creating an undeniably 'resort-style' atmosphere. The Primary suite was designed for relaxation, with a spa-like ambience characterizing the bathroom. Here, an exquisite chandelier, dual vanities, a Victoria and Albert freestanding soaking tub, a walk-in shower with a Hansgroehe rain shower head, Brizo water faucets, and a private water closet with a bidet are found. Two oversized guest bedrooms share a bathroom that offers a large walk-in shower, Mahogany cabinetry, and marble countertops. Guests will delight in the 10'x10' outdoor shower with 5' stucco walls and a vaulted screen cage roof for privacy. Meticulously maintained mature Florida landscaping, a customized plantation-style concrete tile roof, an eye-appealing brick paver driveway and an 8' wide entry walk enhance the home's extraordinary outdoor appeal. Nestled in the highly desired golf community of Rotonda West, this stunning home is where timeless beauty meets unrivaled quality. Att: The pool temp is set to 86 degrees.
