Property
Modern Neo-Craftsman style architecture perfectly complements this Grand Canal deep water masterpiece, built in 2002 by Militano Construction. Introduced by a brick pavered circular motor court, the residence is set off by pecky cypress-ceiling loggias with Fortune stone finishes. Providing a summer kitchen and cabana bath, the waterfront loggia leads down to the sparkling pool and spa. Boat dockage serves the 110+/- foot shoreline of this .86 acre Grand Canal lot with quick access to the Intracoastal. Equally as stunning as the setting, the sophisticated living environment achieves the perfect balance of richness and understated refinement. Each aspect is brilliantly thought out, from the versatile floor-plan to the fine details and from the principal living/entertaining rooms to the more utilitarian spaces. Abundant doors and sliders promote an open flow to extensive outdoor living spaces creating a wonderful blend of shaded and sun-splashed settings around the pool and outdoor living spaces.
