...angles, slopes and textures. Creating a visual and functional design theme that flows effortlessly from the interior to exterior, from landscape to hardscape. Following the structure and flowing lines of the architecture, the interior features a cool, clean yet exciting complement of finishes, and amazing details. Gray's design was brought to life by D'Asign Source, the Keys' premier custom home builder and landscape architect. A 52-year old family-owned firm, D'Asign Source has executed over 1,500 major projects and 1,000,000+ square feet of environments. Entering the property, the commissioned bronze-and-concrete sculpture by the drive-around was done by "the one and only Walter Palmer, Hilton Head Island and Florida Keys' most engaging sculptor." Palmer has been commissioned to create his flights of fancy for boardrooms of Fortune 500 companies, luxury hotels, cruise lines, and a long list of discriminating private collectors throughout the United States, Europe and the Caribbean. Next, the world famous ground-level, 25,000-gallon, snorkeling aquarium featured on "Fish Tank Kings" stocked with a dazzling variety of marine tropical fish, custom artificial coral and decorated reef, spanned by three bridges leading to a center island awaits you. The fish and sea creatures are so friendly they'll eat right out of your hand. This stunning, 6,100+ square foot home with separate guest house is situated on a 31,000+ square feet peninsula with the Atlantic Ocean to the south, Newfound Harbor and fabulous, unobstructed sunsets to the west, and a natural, forever-wetland to the north, combining privacy with wide-open Keys panoramas and a white, sandy beach, a rarity in the Keys. All told, Modern Elegance includes approximately 7,000 square feet of living area, including the guest quarters above the four-car garage. The south side features a 260-foot long, custom, deep-water dock with two sets of lifts allowing the protected dockage for a full fleet of watercraft including a jet boat dock. The garage allows drive-through to the davit pads. The canal offers depth of 20 feet along with an open water control depth of four feet.
The exotic botanical habitat must be seen and experienced to be fully appreciated. Located in the only tropical horticultural zone in the continental United States, the landscaping takes full advantage of the incredible diversity, size and color of native and specimen ornamental plants. In addition to thousands of tropical plants, the landscape design and installation (including irrigation) performed by the award-winning D'Asign Scapes Team features over 100 different species of rare and exotic palms and paver walkways throughout, The inviting beach-entry swimming pool with rock waterfall is a showstopper by itself. It's situated between the main house and the guest quarters. Beach sand, swaying palm trees supporting hammocks, a tiki hut with bar, and fire pit contribute to the island vibe. After sunset, transform the home and outdoors into a fantasy land inside and out through the automated lighting, which offers an array of light grouping choices, brightness, and colors, and your favorite music through the Elan surround sound system. Inside, you'll find three bedrooms with five full baths and one half-bath. Another bedroom and full bath are in the separate guest quarters. There's thought for comfort, convenience and enjoyment behind everything on the long list of luxury interior amenities including billiard room with Brunswick Gold Crown 3 table, elevator, dumbwaiter, Nutone central vacuum, wine cooler, fish and tackle room, scuba fishing gear room, safe room, two laundry rooms, outdoor showers at each master bath, and much more. Natural lighting is also individually controlled electronically by 72 Hunter Douglas automated blinds. Experience the unobstructed sunrise and sunsets from the comforts of this world-class home in a way no magazine cover could ever compete against. No need to drive to Mallory Square when you have your own private, front row seat! The kitchen is a chef's dream with UltraCraft-touch custom cabinets, Viking island range, Dacor double ovens, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Franke sinks and faucets, limestone floor, custom granite countertops, custom table, walk-in pantry and pass-through to the dining room. From a construction perspective, D'Asign Source built this home with strict, tough requirements on engineering and structure. Exceeding the standard 130 MPH wind load, the home was engineered and built to 155 MPH wind standards. The structure is made of concrete-reinforced masonry construction with special roof trusses and strapping methods. Along with being extremely strong, the building envelope uses Low-E insulated glass windows and doors, and upgraded insulation on all walls and ceilings, allowing the high-efficiency Lennox air conditioning system to cool the house optimally. High-efficiency appliances and plumbing features further enhance the environmental friendliness of the house. Every Anderson window and door ( except for the exciting Comar windows) features safety laminated glass and is Dade County hurricane-approved. The eleven Comar windows are custom-made and are incorporate an easy-to-use shutter system. The roof incorporates glazed Japanese tiles. The state-of-the-art water circulation, filtering and conditioning system is located in the garage mechanical room eliminating noise while allowing excellent access for service. Every aspect of this property is simply amazing! Unsurprisingly, Modern Elegance has been featured on television several times with appearances on The Travel Channel and National Geographic's "Fish Tank Kings." and most recently on an upcoming series on "HGTV" The secret is out. Everyone wants to experience this mesmerizing property. If you're looking for the ultimate in American tropical luxury living, you owe it to yourself to view this fantastic residence and setting.
