There are homes you can understand online, and then there are homes you must walk through to truly feel. This is one of them. A private Gulf Coast resort compound for collectors, entertainers, and legacy buyers. Set on nearly 3 private acres along Lemon Bay, this gated Mediterranean-inspired estate spans almost 28,000 sq. ft. of resort-style living with unmatched amenities on Florida’s Gulf Coast, all within this private estate. Enter through grand gates and follow a sweeping driveway framed by mature oaks, tranquil ponds, waterfalls, and curated sculptures. The grounds include manicured lawns, a putting green, bocce and volleyball courts, and expansive outdoor recreation.

A dramatic porte cochère introduces a soaring two-story foyer with double glass doors, stained-glass transoms, and a glass elevator. Interiors showcase coffered and tray ceilings, stately columns, marble and travertine floors, extensive millwork, and eight fireplaces.

The home offers six ensuite bedrooms, 9.5 total baths (primary bath has 3 bathroom sections but counted as 1 in the total), a library with wet bar, a media/family room with projector, fitness and meditation rooms, and rooftop terraces designed for sunset and Gulf views. The chef’s kitchen features dual islands, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, wine fridge, ice maker, and walk-in pantry, flowing seamlessly into both formal and casual dining areas. The primary suite includes bay views from a private screened terrace, fireplace, sitting area, spa-like bath, and custom closets, while guest suites offer private balconies, walk-in closets, and baths.

Outdoor living is highlighted by a 30×50 resurfaced saltwater pool and spa, full outdoor kitchen, shaded terraces, pool bath, and recreation courts. The property extends to a private dock with boat lift and deeded Gulf beach access. A tiled garage provides capacity for up to 30 vehicles, complete with 10 mini-split A/C systems and extensive storage, ideal for collectors or large-scale entertaining.
