The sweeping gated drive arrives at the porte cochere entry by an Old World fountain, while a secondary drive serves the discreetly placed parking court and 14-car garage. Loggias stretching across the villa’s rear façade overlook the immense resort-style patio focused on the lagoon-style pool with rock-edged waterfall spa, undulating palms, and dramatic landscape lighting.

Lavishly embellished, this sprawling villa offers 25,000+/-square feet of living space – served by 4 separate staircases – with 16 bedrooms, 14 full and 2 half baths, including a private guest house. Polished marble floors and soaring ceilings heighten the dramatically elegant atmosphere.
First Floor - Etched glass doors welcome guests into the 2-story foyer dominated by a majestic double staircase balustraded with filigreed ironwork. A Corinthian-columned passageway transitions into the double-height formal salon soaring to a coffered ceiling above the baronial fireplace and view-filled window wall opening to the pool patio. A full-service wet bar is adjacent to the music conservatory with French doors to the poolside loggia. Corinthian columns and intricate moldings refine the banquet-sized formal dining room.

Off the kitchen are a butler’s pantry, storage pantry, laundry room, and glass-enclosed family dining area opening by the pool. Also opening poolside, the magnificent double-height family room rises to a rosette-medallioned coffered ceiling. The home theater hosts private movie screenings with stadium-style seating and a curtained screen below the fiber-optic-lit ceiling.
