rafted in the tradition of a Caribbean British Colonial estate, this 6 bedroom, 7½ bath residence stands prominently atop an exceptionally elevated estate
lot on Reef Road in Vero Beach, Florida. Offering over 100’ of direct ocean frontage, this stunning setting affords sweeping, intimate views of the Atlantic from nearly all of the residence’s ground and second floor rooms. Master bedroom suites and laundry rooms are located on each floor of the residence. Notable amenities include a walnut paneled elevator, state of the art home automation and security systems, reverse
osmosis water purification system, backup generator capable of powering the entire home, Anderson® impactrated windows and doors, fully-operable storm shutters and a three car, climate-controlled garage. Lush tropical foliage and specimen palms fan out over the sprawling grounds, framing marbled terraces that lead to the residence. Living areas designed by Spectrum – the award-winning studio of Susan Schuyler Smith.
Entering through an arched mahogany doorway, a twostory grand foyer and central gallery introduce the formal living area of the residence – finished with French limestone floors, imported hand-cut coral fireplace and cypress-lined vaulted ceiling. French doors open to the east oceanfront veranda, which flows out towards a marble pool deck and the sheltering dune beyond. A guest master suite situated on the southern exposure of the residence enjoys its own spacious oceanfront veranda. The chef-designed kitchen features custom hand-made cabinetry, mystic white marble counters and a mahogany topped island. Appliances include Wolf gas ranges, ovens and warming drawers with SubZero refrigerators, refrigerator drawers, ice makers and dishwasher drawers. Adjoining the kitchen is a climate controlled wine cave – finished in St. John’s River pecky cypress – and a butler’s pantry that flows into an elegant formal dining room. A handsome coffered ceiling and baked European hardwood floors unite the kitchen, breakfast and family rooms, all enjoying breathtaking ocean views. These informal living areas spill out to an outdoor kitchen with Wolf gas-burning grill and SubZero under-counter refrigerator. The west wing of the residence features a private library with hand crafted bookcases, custom paneling and cypress-lined ceiling. A theatre room includes a wet bar with SubZero refrigerator drawers. An additional guest bedroom suite with private loggia is located between the garage and main house.
The grand master suite, encompassing the north wing of the second floor, opens onto two picturesque oceanfront balconies - immersing the expansive bedroom in panoramic views of turquoise and azure waters. Adjoining the bedroom are dual wardrobes rooms and a luxuriously appointed master bath, where intricate marble mosaics and decadent onyx surfaces coalesce to arouse the calming indulgence of a spa. An oversized porcelain tub and jetted steam shower complete the sumptuous refuge. Just outside the master bedroom, an inviting master lounge features an elegant coffered ceiling, fireplace, morning kitchen with SubZero refrigerator drawers and a covered balcony. The remainder of the second floor is comprised of three guest bedroom suites, one with a private oceanfront balcony. Ceiling treatments and bathroom finishes are carefully selected to give each guest suite a distinctive and unique personality.
