The story
- Pool
- Waterfront
Welcome to The Sanctuary, a bespoke architectural masterpiece by Mark J. Leonardi, brought to life by A. Vernon Allen Builders. This nearly 8,600-square-foot waterfront estate showcases exceptional detail and craftsmanship, from its slate roof and copper gutters to natural stone accents and exquisite landscaping. Passing through the gates, reflection pools frame the forecourt, setting the tone for a serene experience. Inside, gentle light filters through vertical Tischler windows onto Portuguese limestone floors, illuminating curated interior vignettes. Designed as seven pavilions connected by glass-lined passageways, the home flows with discovery and intention. Floating walls eliminate the need for baseboards, enhancing a sense of weightlessness and architectural clarity. The layout weaves around private gardens, water features, and tranquil courtyards across a spacious lot and a half site. Each transition, from stone to glass, interior to exterior, is seamless and mindful. Clean lines, hidden storage, and a soft material palette create a calm, spa-like ambiance. Whether relaxing beside the palm-framed pool or walking the meditative halls, The Sanctuary is more than a home, it’s a retreat for the senses, designed to center, soothe, and restore. Eligible for immediate Port Royal Club membership to enjoy what will be the premier beach club in America.
