The Space:

Welcome to the crown jewel of Ocean Drive—a coastal traditional masterpiece blending timeless architectural charm with elevated, modern comfort. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted by bright, open spaces, rich textures, classic coastal details, and an effortless sense of grandeur.

The ocean fills the front windows with a sweeping, unobstructed view—a signature hallmark of this home’s design.



This estate takes entertaining seriously.

The main level offers multiple opportunities to relax or celebrate, including a spacious living room with 85-inch televisions and ocean views, cozy conversation nooks perfect for quiet chats or reading, and an open dining area designed for shared meals. Every corner reflects a warm, classic coastal aesthetic, and the layout ensures that even large groups can spread out comfortably while still feeling connected.



At the center of the home, a peaceful open-air courtyard provides a refreshing transition between the home’s vibrant gathering areas—ideal for morning coffee, evening wine, or simply enjoying the coastal breeze. With 10 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, the home provides incredible privacy and tranquility for groups of all sizes. The main house includes nine bedrooms, six of which are master suites with private bathrooms. Several bedrooms enjoy commanding Gulf views, and all are styled with soft hues, classic furnishings, and traditional coastal textures. Two separate staircases lead to the six upstairs bedrooms, and every bedroom includes its own television. The upper level also features both front and rear balconies—perfect for sunrise viewing, stargazing, or listening to the waves.



The detached Boathouse serves as the tenth bedroom and includes multiple beds, a private kitchenette, and a full bathroom, creating a seventh master-style suite for guests seeking extra privacy or flexible arrangements. Large groups will also appreciate the unmatched laundry capacity, with two washers and two dryers in the main laundry room and a third washer and dryer located in the garage, making extended stays and linen management effortless.



The property continues its coastal traditional charm outdoors, offering a beautiful private pool framed by classic lines and ample seating, wide balconies on both levels with ocean vistas, and a large driveway in both the front and rear of the property that can accommodate more than 15 vehicles and even full-scale buses. These outdoor spaces are perfect for barbecues, morning yoga, sunbathing, or relaxing after a day at the beach.



Designed with intention, scale, and unmistakable coastal character, this home is ideal for family reunions, multi-family vacations, graduation weekends, school or university gatherings, corporate retreats, wedding parties, or any large-format celebration requiring comfort, space, and sophistication. This property represents the pinnacle of coastal traditional luxury—blending timeless design with the capacity, amenities, and functionality needed for unforgettable stays.
