This 14,000+ SF three-story Highland Beach, Florida oceanfront villa — perched 17 feet above sea level with an amazing protective seawall — boasts incomparable views of the sparkling blue Atlantic waters.

The grand entry from the double-gated motor court sets the tone for this towering estate. Beautifully paired with 21st century technology and luxuries are the old-world aesthetics of marble, exquisite carved millwork and cabinetry, Renaissance Revival chandeliers, and antiques throughout.

Soaring ceilings in the formal living room, and floor-to-ceiling windows to the east capture the mesmerizing views of the ocean beyond. Beautiful and extremely rare antique built-ins and works of art are an elegant complement to south Florida’s natural tropical beauty. The gourmet kitchen features exquisite custom cabinetry, island and built-ins.

Other home amenities include a full professional gymnasium, whole-house generator, and a total of six bedrooms and seven full and two half baths. (Two are staff or mother-in-law suites.) Also included . . . a glass-enclosed, car collector showroom within the drive-through garage that can easily house a dozen vehicles as well as an extensive art collection.

Not to be outdone by the interior, the grounds host a private beach, saltwater pool, covered loggia and for dining al fresco, a rooftop terrace (reachable by elevator). All of which offer uplifting and inspiring places to enjoy the vast Atlantic Ocean.
