(Read more) In the park-like tranquility of Boca Raton's exclusive Long Lake Estates enclave, this breathtaking paradise reminiscent of the Great Estates of the Mediterranean countryside has just undergone a complete renovation with no expense spared and no detail overlooked. As the overture to this impressive seven-bedroom residence, a long gated drive circles an ornate fountain at the sprawling palm-framed entrance court, while a separate gated drive approaches the private guest house. With equally stunning indoor and outdoor living spaces, this compound-like estate leaves nothing to be desired as a venue for formal or casual entertaining. Exquisite finishes and high-end luxuries are replete in the versatile floor-plan's grand total of 12,180± square feet, arranged in beautifully light and airy wings. Guests are greeted in the regal rotunda foyer, a prelude to the elegant window-walled salon that opens its doors to the magnificent pool patio. Myriad features of the residence also include the theater, game arcade room, professional-style dance studio, art gallery, showpiece kitchen, lavish master suite, and car collector's six-bay garage including two limousine-depth bays. European-style gardens and a fenced tennis court complete the resort-like realm outdoors. Mastering the mix of Old World tradition and modern luxury, this one-of-a-kind estate perfectly suits those with an appreciation of exceptional design and a passion for fine living. Location Twin Lake Drive, Boca Raton, Florida. Offering an exceptional level of privacy in central Boca Raton, Long Lake Estates is a prestigious guard-gated enclave of large estates nestled on winding tree-lined streets among lush park areas and sparkling lakes. Atlantic Ocean beaches, Mizner Park's world-class shopping and dining, and Boca Raton's private executive airport are all within easy driving distance. Property Sprawling across nearly one and a-half acres, with two gated entries, this lushly secluded Mediterranean-inspired compound is landscaped with stately royal palm trees and manicured gardens. Cypress-ceilinged loggias and a stone-columned pergola highlight the outdoor entertainment space also featuring a night-lit pool with waterfall spa, an open-air kitchen, and sculpture pedestals. The fenced tennis court sits to the side of the property. There is also a sprinkler system, landscape lighting, and soffit lighting around the entire perimeter of the house. Residence Newly renovated, this palatial residence totals 12,180± square feet with seven bedrooms, seven full and three half baths, climate-controlled six-bay garage, plus separate storage for sports equipment. Amenities include Lutron lighting, indoor/outdoor sound systems, a house-wide phone system, sophisticated security system, and safe room with motorized steel doors. Exquisite finishes feature the Venetian plaster walls, marble and hardwood floors, ornamental stonework, elaborate coffered ceilings, gold leaf accents, stenciled detailing, and sparkling crystal chandeliers. Through the iron-filigreed gates of the portico, mahogany doors enter the grand rotunda foyer with medallion-inlaid marble floor, hand-painted gold-leafed ceiling, and column-framed archways to barrel-vaulted side galleries. Just ahead, the soaring window-walled formal living room opens to the lush pool patio and showcases a majestic cast stone fireplace below the gold-leafed coffered ceiling. Opening out to a romantic garden, the formal dining room is set off by rope-work columns and an elaborate beamed ceiling. Through a butler's pantry, the showpiece chef's kitchen is equipped with fine furniture-style cabinetry, rich granite counters, motorized shades, and high-end appliances. Overlooking the pool and gardens, a bright breakfast bay flows into the coffer-ceilinged family room featuring a magnificent built-in media center, with a wet bar, wine cooler, and full cabana bath adjacent. Handsome furniture-grade built-ins also appoint the paneled library under an intricate coffered ceiling. The theater room has its own kitchenette for serving refreshments. Also featured is a professional-style dance studio with mirrored walls and a sprung maple floor. Other versatile spaces include the game arcade room, gym, and art gallery and studio. Formal and informal powder rooms are provided along with a large laundry/utility room. Through a private arched entry, the sumptuous master bedroom suite captures leafy garden views through a bay-windowed sitting area. Fashioned with a silver-molded tray ceiling, medallion-inlaid oak floors, and Belgian wall-coverings, this serenely elegant retreat also features motorized shades, two customized wardrobe rooms plus a spa-like marble bath which has a relaxing jetted tub, walk-in shower, two separate vanities – one with make-up desk, two separate water closets plus bidet. Four more bedrooms with en-suite baths include a separate suite well-suited for staff quarters. Guest House Opening to a loggia by the tennis court, the private two-story guest house is comprised of a living/dining room with open kitchen, a powder room, and two bedrooms with a bath.
