This amazing Caribbean-style manse, set high amidst a grove of coconut palms a block's stroll from the water's edge, offers a rare and private retreat, comprising nearly a half-acre set in the natural beauty of Big Pine Key's jungle environment and Key Deer habitat, only 45 minutes from Key West and about two hours from greater Miami. This one-of-a-kind retreat has been custom-designed by Hollywood film professionals and executed by local craftsmen, with the Old World splendor of a 19th-century tropical colonial lodge. Beautiful hardwood finishes including cypress, mahogany, teak and fir combine with coralstone walls and custom built-in bookcases and cabinetry, with subtle tropical and nautical accents. The house's rich interior features historically styled 8' solid hardwood interior doors and luxurious hardware and fixtures. Features a master suite with an adjunct semi-private room configurable as home office, art studio, nursery or any number of other uses. The second bedroom or guest-quarter includes an en suite bathroom and Murphy bed to allow for configurable use as bedroom, home office or studio. Approximately one thousand additional square feet of elevated covered verandas and open decks, including a spacious screened breakfast/dining porch, provide the absolute in tropical living high up in the palms, bathed in the island's easterly trade winds, and spectacular views of the Florida Keys' magnificent cloudscapes and unrivaled nighttime star-gazing opportunities. This handcrafted and sophisticated home features 21st-century technological upgrades and every amenity for top-flight entertainment or for a fully outfitted remote-working lifestyle including fiber-to-house Cat 6 ethernet cabling, sophisticated lighting, audio and video systems and state-of-the-art kitchen and bathroom design. The large lot allows the possibility of future expansion of the house, ready for a pool or cabana, or for the enlargement of the main structure.
