12400 Placida Rd, Placida, FL 33946

Architect-designed and comprehensively restored, this contemporary waterfront estate on Placida Harbor offers bold design, structural integrity, and over $1M in premium upgrades. Originally created by architect Howard Holtzman and built by BCB Homes of Naples, the home was constructed with concrete and steel for lasting strength and peace of mind—just minutes from Boca Grande. Walls of impact-rated glass frame panoramic views and open to elevated terraces, a vanishing-edge pool, raised spa, and lush landscaping. The interior showcases refinished Brazilian cherry floors, restored stainless steel countertops, elevated outlets, and designer lighting. A custom stainless kitchen by Varenna & Foster features Sub-Zero, Miele, and Bosch appliances. Extensive upgrades include a new roof, eight new HVAC units, a 45kW rooftop generator, flood panels, roll-down hurricane shutters, Lutron smart lighting, a raised, flood-resilient pool equipment platform, a weather station, and full security with cameras. Custom furnishings are included for a seamless move-in-ready experience. The harbor front owner’s suite is a peaceful sanctuary with sunrise views, a spa-style bath, and a cherry-paneled dressing room. Additional finished flex spaces provide room for guests, office, gym, or creative use. This refined coastal retreat delivers architectural pedigree, engineering excellence, and elevated waterfront living—anchored by its solid concrete and steel construction and a new dock with water and electric service, cable railings, built-in bench, and three slips: two with concrete pilings (one with a 7,000-lb lift) and a third open slip that can accommodate a 55-foot vessel—a dream setup for serious boaters.
