Focusing on indoor-outdoor gracious entertaining and luxurious living as key parts of its plan, this enchanting Bermuda-style estate is melded with a magically landscaped environment by Nievera Williams Design featuring terraced gardens, patios, a slatted-roof loggia, outdoor fireplaces, a rock-lined stream, a waterfall, a dramatic infinity-edge salt-treated pool and a gondola-style dock with a boat lift. Additionally, with 232 +/- feet fronting Tarpon Cove, it epitomizes a dream-come-true for boaters with water toys.
Residence
The incredibly conceived Bermudian gem, ”Tarpon Cove,” affords an exceptionally rare level of detail and authenticity. Winner of the Palm Beach Preservation Foundation’s 2017 Schuler Award for outstanding new architecture, as well as an AIA award for excellence in design & execution, this fantastic six-bedroom estate and two guesthouses, with 9,996 +/- total square feet, was designed by architect Thomas Kirchhoff, featuring scalloped gables, dormer windows, tall chimneys with decorative caps, a tower, and even a Bermuda-style “buttery” with stepped ziggurats. Inside, a dramatic highlight in the foyer, sliding doors disappear when opened, and one can step immediately into the infinity-edge pool that blends with the lagoon. Other interior details include bespoke wood floors stained a graphite gray, a variety of architecturally interesting ceiling styles, niches for display, and hidden cupboards for storage. Banks of French doors in the living and dining rooms offer peaceful water views inviting seamless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The gourmet eat-in kitchen is fitted with dove-gray cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, Caesarstone countertops, and fish-scale shaped tile along with stainless steel backsplashes. Also on the first floor are two powder rooms, a den, office, bedroom suite and laundry. The spacious master suite, comprising the entire second floor, is topped with a pitched ceiling, and sets of French doors open to a water-view balcony as well as a covered terrace. The suite includes a gym, sitting room, two spa-like bathrooms, and a large dressing area with custom closets. Two detached guesthouses, both with two-bedroom suites, complete the overall plan, and additionally, car lifts expand the two garages to accommodate five cars.
