Built with an uncommon level of intention by Magnolia Custom Homes, this residence blends substantial construction, timeless materials, and resort-style amenities into a property that feels both elevated and enduring. In a market where many homes prioritize appearance over substance, this one delivers both. From the moment you arrive, the difference is clear. More than 150 feet of poured concrete walls, steel-supported framing, and a four-foot-wide concrete footer beneath the courtyard create a level of structural integrity rarely found along the Emerald Coast. The striking and oversized 3 car garage boasts 10' tall garage doors and custom wood awning with ample storage space and an elevated private parking court complete with Belgian cobblestone pavers all sitting over 25' above sea level. Every detail was engineered with longevity in mind, resulting in a home that feels as solid as it is refined. Inside, the interiors strike a balance of warmth and sophistication. Soaring 20' vaulted ceilings in the living room with hand hewn cypress beams juxtaposed a pecky cypress ceiling from Amish carpenters provide an open air Caribbean layout that is both grandiose and welcoming. Reclaimed heart-of-pine flooring sourced from a historic Georgia barn adds character and depth, while shiplap, Venetian plaster, and level five drywall finishes create a clean, tailored backdrop throughout.

The primary suite lives like a private retreat, complete with a Victoria + Albert soaking tub and spa-like glass shower enclosure with 12' of suspended glass and floor to ceiling honed Asian statuary marble. The primary bedroom features 15' vaulted ceilings with cypress beams and pecky cypress accents as well as fully ship lapped siding and Venetian plaster gas vented fireplace. The primary suite also has a storefront glass window that is 6'x10' overlooking the serene greenery and private gardens of the courtyard with direct access through the French double doors. Custom window treatments are found throughout the home featuring Belgian linens and Lutron controls. The floor plan was thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining at scale. A first-floor primary suite is complemented by one additional guest room on the main level, with two more full sized bedroom suites on the second level including a bunk room with 4 queen bunk beds and custom linens as well as a junior primary suite.

Custom furnishings, Cisco couches and bespoke millwork by Don Hill including 10' custom cypress doors complete a fully curated interior experience. Surround sound is also integrated into the home both in the main house, carriage house and resort pool area. At the heart of the property, the courtyard becomes its own private resort. A heated pool with laminar jets cornered by double steel reinforced concrete planters that house mature Sylvester palms flank the perimeter overflow spa and lounge areas, and rice white peacock paver decking. The outdoor lanai / covered living is an extension of the indoor living space adorned in details like the 15' vaulted ceilings, custom hanging gas lantern that provides ample ambience as well as a full outdoor summer kitchen with a lynx gas grill, large gas side burner and an outdoor refrigerator, quartz countertops as well as a separate sink and prep area.
