Location, Location! This elegant, custom built 2012 estate property, which sits on almost .4 of an acre in the historical heart of the Old Floresta neighborhood, gives a fresh and unique perspective on classic Mediterranean design with a modern and refined twist. The Old Floresta section preserves Old Florida beauty in East Boca Raton- all just minutes from the landmark Boca Raton Resort, beautiful beaches, and world class dining and shopping venues.

Supplements: There is a private and distinguished courtyard style entry that extends into a long Stonehurst brick paver driveway that feeds into a three car garage which offers custom flooring, extensive custom cabinets and storage features, as well as an 240 volt electric car plug in. This classic residence features over 5300 square feet (under air) of spectacular exterior and interior architectural elements and includes five bedrooms, five full and two half baths, plus an upstairs living area and a first floor custom designed home office. The soaring double-height living room is illuminated by designer lighting and a soaring arched window which draws one's eyes to the dramatic (and heated) infinity pool and spa that is surrounded by a tropical oasis of greenery, lush gardens and Podocarpus hedges. The elegant dining room, which the current owners use as their music room, is served by a chef's kitchen, with an extra-large island with a granite countertop, and high-end appliances, including a six-burner Thermador gas range, double oven, a wine cooler, and coffee system. In the light-filled family/breakfast room, the wraparound glass slider pocket doors completely open to the poolside loggia which is complete with a summer kitchen and T.V.- setting the stage for a fabulous indoor/outdoor entertaining space! There is a cabana bath, plus another powder room for guests on the first floor of this residence. Also on the ground floor (next to the office) in a private wing, is the bright bay-windowed master suite, which offers direct access to the pool and features two very large customized wardrobe rooms plus a luxurious marble bath with a jetted tub and glass shower. Upstairs, there is a large living area and four generous sized bedrooms, all with large walk-in/ built-in closets, custom cabinetry, and ensuite bathrooms.
