Formal Living Room The home’s formal living room is the focal point of the property. This magnificent room, ideal for elegant entertaining, was built first and the rest of the home was constructed around it. Soaring 14 foot trey ceilings are designed with nine panels and recessed lighting to give the room an inviting glow. Huge marbleized Doric columns serve as a partition from the Formal hallway and frame views of the home’s beautiful grounds. Two spacious art niches are designed to display treasures from your collection.

The centerpiece of the formal living room is its stunning wood-and-gas fireplace. Made of rare Italian marble in dark tones that contrast with the light colors of the room, the fireplace extends from floor to ceiling. The columns are painted to match the striking black-and-white natural design of this exquisite marble. This living room is filled with light and air, making it the perfect setting for cocktails and conversation with your guests.

Spacious Kitchen The inviting heart of any home is its kitchen, and this home’s beautiful European-style kitchen is no exception. With commercial-grade, state-of-theart appliances and sumptuous design details, this kitchen will appeal to even the most discerning chef. Stainless-steel appliances include a DCS gas range, two Wolf ovens, two dishwashers, wine cooler and a large walk-in pantry. Countertops, including the breakfast bar and island, are made of a light-colored African Verde granite. Ruffled travertine backsplashes, a custom travertine stone hood, and a beamed ceiling evoke the charm and warmth of an Italian country manor’s kitchen.

The kitchen is spacious and airy, with relaxing views of the bay. High ceilings and recessed lighting create the perfect ambiance for preparing a light meal or gathering with the family for a casual snack. Details like crown molding and intricately carved trim on the breakfast bar give the room a distinctive flair. Unique light fixtures suspended are reminiscent of the hand-blown glass of Venice.

Elegant Dining Room For formal dinner parties, the dining room offers both grandeur and warmth. There is a stunning tiered chandelier suspended from the spectacularly high ceiling. The ceiling has recessed lighting, and its four dramatic panels and central dome are decorated with a custom painted mural. Intricate crown molding is also custom-made and surrounds the room. As in the formal living room, there are faux-marble painted columns and two illuminated art niches for displaying pieces from your collection.

Windows allow plenty of natural Florida light into the room, further accentuating the home’s effective merging of interior and exterior space.

Theater Gather with close friends or family to watch the big game, or a favorite movie, in the home’s very own state-of-the-art theater. This unique room offers 16-foot ceilings and stadium seating. There is a surround-sound audio system, a 113� HD DLP screen framed with a curtain, two columns and a stage, all contributing to an ultimate viewing experience. The room is not only equipped with the most advanced video and audio technology, but is designed with an eye for elegant detail. Lush carpeting, tiered chandelier, and double sliding Alder wood doors with wrought-iron hardware give the theater an air of classic Hollywood style.

Massage Room After an active day on Destin’s sugary sand beaches or pristine golf courses, relax in privacy in the home’s massage room. This spa-quality room is equipped with four large storage closets for linens, oils, and towels. There is a vaulted ceiling with recessed lighting and crown molding, and soft carpeting to cushion aching feet. The doors are made of a rich wood to contrast beautifully with the light paint of the walls and ceiling. The massage room offers a place for quiet repose, to unwind and recharge from the bustle of the day’s activities.

With cool stone flooring, this 4,500¹ square foot enclosed space also features a gas fireplace surrounded in stone. There is a summer kitchen with a gas grill, granite countertops, and a travertine backsplash. A stylish bar seats six and features custom cabinetry. Stunning Doric columns frame the edge of the space along the pool, evoking classic Roman architecture. Sliding glass doors provide easy access to the home’s interior.

Luxurious Pool with Swim-Up Grotto Bar The resort-style pool is luxury defined. This 50’ x 90’ area features a beautiful pool accented with a gradual entry, a waterfall, and a unique swim-up grotto bar. You and your guests will feel that you are on an exclusive tropical island or in a Hollywood movie. Banks of picture windows offer views of the sunset to the west. The pool area also features a spa-style hot tub with seating for eight. Adjacent to the covered patio, this exquisitely appointed space is perfect for guests and family to enjoy the water year-round.

Destin, Florida Destin is a peninsula along the Emerald Coast separating the Gulf of Mexico from the Choctawhatchee Bay. Destin offers the best of both worlds: The Gulf for the beach days, and the Bay at your back door for boating and water sports. With its thick white sandy beaches and emerald green water, Destin provides an ideal private retreat for discerning individuals and their families to relax while living a lavish lifestyle.

Destin is world-renowned for its stunning sunsets, challenging golf courses, deep-sea boating and fishing, and excellent dining and shopping. Each October, the world’s most skilled anglers gather for the Destin Fishing Rodeo. Those who prefer to let someone else catch the fish enjoy the bounty at the annual Destin Seafood Festival, a lively festival also featuring some of the region’s top artists.

Easily accessible by air from Fort Walton Beach or Panama City airports, as well as by car, Destin is a treasure of Florida’s Emerald Coast, the perfect place to escape from city life while enjoying every convenience and luxury.
