Beyond its discreet gated entrance, a world of unparalleled sophistication unfolds within this architectural masterpiece. Conceived by the acclaimed European architect Dieter Vander Velpen, the residence seamlessly blends warm, natural finishes with the finest global materials, creating an ambiance of understated luxury.
A dramatic entry sequence begins with a floating walkway leading to a grand 10-foot oak door, opening into a foyer adorned with stained oak and natural stone walls, crowned by white oak ceilings. This leads to an expansive open living area, thoughtfully designed to encompass a formal living room, dining room, and family room, all flowing effortlessly into a gourmet kitchen. Floor-to-ceiling windows with minimal frames invite the outside in, revealing breathtaking ocean and city views and opening onto an ocean-facing terrace complete with an outdoor kitchen, a private pool, and a rejuvenating jacuzzi.
The heart of the home, a magnificent kitchen, features a statement Travertino island, masterfully playing with proportion and elegant curves. An architectural central staircase, crafted from Pierre de Varennes stone, serves as a striking feature wall, showcasing floating oak stairs and a custom cascading chandelier by Canadian designer Randy Zieber, rendered in sand-cast bronze and alabaster, gracefully spanning all three levels to accentuate the home's impressive scale.
Ascending to the second floor, European oak floors lend a sense of warmth and continuity. Here, an exquisite primary suite awaits, boasting a resort-style bathroom where an oversized soaking tub, carved from a single block of silver travertine, offers a serene escape with sliding doors opening to a private deck and captivating views. The bespoke closets feature custom walnut millwork, White Onyx, Belvedere Quartzite, and bronze fixtures, reflecting meticulous attention to detail. This level also hosts three additional en-suite guest bedrooms, a comfortable pajama lounge, and direct access to an expansive rooftop terrace.
The rooftop terrace presents an idyllic setting for entertaining, complete with a large jacuzzi, a full kitchen, a bar, and generous dining and lounging areas, all framed by panoramic views stretching from downtown to the sparkling ocean. The lower level is dedicated to indulgence and recreation, featuring a comprehensive wellness area with a Patagonia Quartzite steam and massage room, a cedar wood sauna, and a fully equipped gym. Further amenities include a custom cigar lounge, a temperature-controlled wine room, a state-of-the-art 4-dimensional theater, and a sophisticated car gallery, alongside a private guest suite with its own access.
