An elegant two-story library is accessed through double 12-panel lite doors, showcasing raised-panel cherry cabinetry, custom bookshelves, and a balcony overlook. The private first-floor primary suite offers a true sanctuary with a sitting area and spa-style bath featuring a domed ceiling, whirlpool tub, oversized walk-in shower, dual vanities, an in-suite washer and dryer, and two expansive walk-in closets, each with dressing areas and custom organizers. Upstairs, four additional bedrooms each feature private en-suite bathrooms, volume ceilings, and generous walk-in or storage closets. A large flexible-use room provides ideal space for a guest suite, media room, or game room, and the level includes a third laundry room with built-ins and folding station. The walk-out lower level is extraordinary. The entire rear wall is encased in glass with five sets of atrium doors leading to a huge, covered open-air slate patio that spans the entire width of the home, mirroring the expansive Ipe wood deck above. This level features volume tray ceilings with uplighting, a custom bar with premium appliances (refrigerator, icemaker, microwave, and dishwasher), a pool table area, poker room, and an impressive golf simulation room adorned with custom murals by renowned artist Dan Gotel. A full bath and abundant storage complete this level. The outdoor living experience is unmatched. In addition to the covered patio, there is a second full bath with an outdoor shower for poolside convenience. The 60' x 22' heated saltwater pool is accented by a graceful dolphin fountain, cabana, fully equipped outdoor kitchen, stone fireplace lounge, and hot tub, all nestled within lush, professionally landscaped private grounds. Also located on the property is a vast multi-purpose sport court, ideal for basketball, pickleball, tennis, and other recreation - a perfect complement to this home's resort-style amenities. Additional features include a home theater, wine cellar, fitness room, whole-house audio, smart home automation, and a four-car garage.
