Designed for both grand entertaining and intimate everyday living, the home features a sophisticated library, sun-drenched solarium, inviting breakfast room, and a gourmet chef’s kitchen. Five beautifully appointed bedrooms and four-and-a-half luxurious baths provide comfort and privacy, with multiple fireplaces and multiple view-filled decks offer warm, atmospheric spaces to unwind. Elegant terraced grounds, meticulously landscaped, surround the property, creating a private sanctuary above it all. A rare offering where coastal beauty, architectural heritage, and modern luxury converge.
