Kiva Dunes Gulf Front Modern Work of Art atop 25 foot dune. The builder, Joe Noah of Noah and Associates, had to move that dune, weighing hundreds of tons, construct an intricate fifty-foot brick tunnel, put the sand dune back over it and re-plant native vegetation. “It’s a modern house with extraordinary features ” Noah says. Summerour designed the residence to be built into the land; unique to that spot. His architecture gives permanence and warmth to the home’s state-of-the-art, modern construction. When you open the tunnel door, you enter a magical arched brick passageway beneath the sand, you ascend a concrete stairway, past two, eight-foot high zinc sliding doors etched with abstract modernist patterns. These doors partition off guest and main living areas and dramatically mark the end of your journey to reach the heart of the home. You are now face to face with an indescribably breathtaking view of the gulf. A 54-foot fresh water lap pool shimmers at your feet on the veranda. Inside the home, scored concrete floors are glazed in a white epoxy finish. The metallic element, zinc, traditionally thought of as a corrosion resistant coating for other metals, becomes a unifying design theme throughout the residence; from the zinc roof shingles to the first floor ventless gas floating fireplace. You move effortlessly among three levels in a restful cocoon of serenity and sensual luxury that includes guest spaces, luxuriously appointed baths, a master suite, recreation space, study/office, third floor porch with wrap-around views, with indoor/outdoor fireplaces. It took more than three years and the combined talents of a world-class architect and his team to mastermind the design and construction of this work of art built to the highest construction standards. You can scour every beachfront property on the Gulf of Mexico and never find any that compare. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
