Set on 7.88 acres of tropical privacy, this extraordinary residence delivers resort-style living at the highest level.

Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the home features expansive open-plan living, a gourmet kitchen with butler's pantry, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to multiple entertaining zones.
