The park-like lakefront beauty of Long Lake Estates sets the stage for the artful modern elegance of this timeless contemporary masterwork by award-winning Ames International Architecture, complemented by an expansion and renovation done in 2008, when the entire house was professionally decorated with designer finishes. Sculpted in sleek white forms inspired by the aesthetics of the International Style, the five-bedroom residence makes a dramatic statement at the entrance, where guests arrive from the long tree-lined motor court that circles around a water feature by the arched porte cochere.
Preluded by the sublime gallery-like foyer, the soaring living room is dominated by a signature fireplace wall across from the professional-style bar, just one of many features that make the home the ultimate entertainer's showplace. Bathing the room in natural light, glass walls create an open connection with the outdoors, where the pavilion-style lanais and gazebo frame the sinuous curves of the sensational nautilus-inspired infinity pool, its shimmering waters seeming to flow into the lake in the midst of this serenely lush resort-like oasis, ending the day with a magnificent sunset. Also opening by the pool, the sprawling first-floor master wing creates a haven of luxury, featuring not only a sitting room/office and two baths, but also another space devoted to wellness, with a massage room and fitness studio. Complete with a car collector's five-bay garage, this lakefront masterpiece is extraordinary by every measure.
Location
Long Lake Drive, Boca Raton, Florida. Supremely private with a guard-gated entry and its own patrol service, Long Lake Estates is a prestigious enclave of large estates nestled on winding tree-lined streets among scenic lakes and lush park areas.
Property
Facing west to a long stretch of waters, this lakefront contemporary estate is set back on sweeping 1.36+/- acre grounds studded with tropical trees in lush seclusion. Lakeside window walls open the residence to coral-stone terraces around the infinity-edge Pebble Tec pool encircling a spa. The skylit lanai is served by a high-end summer kitchen.
Residence
This striking showplace has five bedrooms, six full and two half baths, and five garage bays in the grand total of 10,693+/- square feet, also featuring impact-rated glass, a full generator, an elevator, Lutron lighting, and Crestron electronics incorporating a surround-sound system. Limestone floors and custom millwork are complemented by designer finishes including exquisite light fixtures, hand-painted Gracie wallpaper and other fine wallcoverings, and carpeting by Edward Fields, Larson, and Stark.
First Floor: Custom bronze doors enter the skylit gallery foyer, leading past the glass-framed staircase into the two-story lakeside living room, served by a professional-style bar across from the dramatic gas-flame granite fireplace on an accent wall of Brazilian hardwood. Illumined by a gorgeous Italian light fixture, the dining room views the lakefront through the glass-walled family/garden room open to the sleek dine-in kitchen with Wingate cabinetry, white quartz counters, and chef's appliances by Miele, Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Gaggenau. This wing also has a cabana bath, powder room, and office/bedroom with full bath. The media room is accented in hardwood and natural cut quartz. In the voluminous master wing, the large bedroom opens to the pool terrace, and the sitting room/office faces a walled garden courtyard. Providing two wardrobe rooms, the suite's salon-like dressing area is accompanied by two sumptuous marble baths, one with a jetted tub, shower, private water closet, and Lalique light fixtures. A relaxing skylit massage room and fitness studio are also in the master suite's poolside wing.
Second Floor: Arranged off a loft opening an expansive sun deck above the pool and lakefront, three bedroom suites include a second lakeside master suite.
