Meticulously finished to the finest detail, this magnificent Palmers Creek estate exceeds every expectation. Brilliantly set on a private cul-de-sac surrounded by lush native landscaping, naturally enclosing the grand motor court and drawing guests toward the inviting façade. Mediterranean architecture is enhanced by coral cast stone elements including decorative corbels, columns, cornice banding, crown molding and defining water table base. Appian style pavers compliment the large barrel tile roof, while flanking carriage style garage doors recede to allow one to concentrate on the stunning raised entry. Spectacular ironwork transforms the entry doors and arched transom above into an artistic focal point for the façade.

Mesmerizing faux finish embellishes the walls and creates a compelling backdrop for the sophisticated materials and selections utilized throughout. The interior is an outstanding display of refined and rich finishes including; intricate moldings, travertine stone, tumbled marble accents, exotic granites and marbles, meticulous cabinetry, intriguing light fixtures, and elaborate tile designs. The homeowners employed the talents of Ginny Galer owner of Tradewinds Interiors to bring their fantastic vision to life.

A coral cast stone fireplace with wood mantel and flanking arched niches with glass display shelves anchor the elegant living room. To achieve balance an engaging custom painted mural fills the recessed niche of the soaring dining room.
Uniting the formal and casual living spaces the butler’s pantry is a marvelous combination of function and great design. Custom distressed cherry cabinetry with rope detailing and decorative seeded glass doors set in contrast to the polished emperadora dark marble and striking faux finish. Adjacent to the butler’s pantry an ornate glass door opens to reveal the ideal space for a future wine cellar.

An epicurean design featuring distressed cherry cabinetry with every amenity, Shaw fireclay apron front sink, 6cm chiseled edge granite center island countertop, and professional appliances. For the grill aficionado a fully-appointed summer kitchen provides pool side cooking with style. The summer kitchen is finished with stained and sealed concrete countertops, wood cabinetry, gas grill, stainless steel sink and valve, and a dazzling metallic backsplash.
Dual-corner disappearing sliding glass doors in the family room dramatically open to the expansive fully-screened outdoor living area. Separate covered spaces provide areas for both dining and entertaining, while the large pool and spa glisten in the Florida sun. A stunning raised waterfall creates a powerful focal point from the surrounding interior and exterior spaces.
[5]Double art glass entry doors give passage to the private master suite, a grand suite with brilliant faux finish and access to the outdoor living area. The master bath is a lavish display of superb materials and great design, a freestanding Kohler soaker tub rests in the center or the space, while flanking vanities provide abundant storage. The dual entry roman shower becomes a stunning scene, as glass panels provide unrestricted views of the enchanting outdoor garden just beyond.
