This architectural masterwork in The Retreat is the newest treasure to be discovered on the Emerald Coast. Three magnificent floors feature extraordinary details, labored over and refined to the point of absolute perfection. The harmonious blend of materials and finishes to be appreciated creates an entrancing landscape prime for exploration and enjoyment always. Grace a gently curved stair leading to the front door to begin your journey. The entry foyer is a unique transitional space, enveloped by tabby stone walls. Venture to the main house or attached carriage house from this point. The carriage house is fully-equipped to serve as a self-contained guest residence with full kitchen, living area, bedroom and bath. Into the main house, striking glass pendants reflect their ambiance off an antique mirrored ceiling into a gracious reception room. A guest suite with private bath is joined by a special bunk room with playful Japanese soaking tub and chic media room on the ground level. A stone terrace with firepit tapers into a grove of Scrub Oak leading to the shore of Draper Lake. A meticulously detailed iron and wood staircase set against a backdrop of floor-to-ceiling herringbone brickwork leads to the upper floors, as does the adjacent residential elevator. The sunny second floor features a modern kitchen, wine room, Florida room and living room with fireplace. Floor and ceiling treatments designate these generous spaces from one another; a deeply coffered wood ceiling in the Florida room, antique mirror inlay ceiling and wood with stone inset floor in the dining room; and a cathedral, scissor-truss ceiling in the living room conveys both grace and grandeur. An additional guest suite with private bath completes this floor. The third floor is a decadent master retreat. Its large sleeping chamber with wood beam ceiling and carved corbel accents features windows that gaze over the entirety of The Retreat to the shimmering Gulf water. A zen bath includes his and hers vanities, impressive dual steam shower and immense chromatherapy tub. A separate study with built-in desk, cabinetry and gorgeous view provides a serene workspace while a loft library with wet bar can be used to pursue more leisurely activities. A delightfully precarious acrylic catwalk dodges through the scissor-trusses over the living room to a covered porch overlooking Draper Lake and the Gulf.
