701 boca bay

Truly a one-of-a-kind residence in Boca Bay's coveted Grande Bay. Upon passing through the stone pillared gates onto the winding circular driveway and past the small pond and fountain, you are met by a magnificent Florida coastal style house and guest house boasting over 1.3 acres in total and 219 feet of frontage on Charlotte Harbor with direct deep-water access. Upon entering the main residence, you cannot help but marvel at the boundless, unobstructed views of Charlotte Harbor through a wall of oversized sliding glass doors on the east side of the great room. The glass doors open to both covered and uncovered outdoor living spaces that capitalize on the glistening waters of the harbor. Vaulted ceilings and custom antique chestnut wood flooring are hallmarks of the main residence. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s delight, with a Thermador cooktop that has 6 gas burners and a griddle, 2 warming drawers, double Thermador ovens, double Sub-Zero refrigerators, two dishwashers (Miele and Bosch), a Wolf microwave, and a separate butler’s pantry and bar. The custom pantry has a Sub-Zero wine refrigerator as well as wooden built- in shelving and storage. The private, first level master wing is comprised of an office with built-in shelving and drawers, an exercise room, two oversized closets with built-in features, an oversized bathroom with two water closets, a bidet, jet tub, a shower with multiple heads, and a 20 x 20 master bedroom with serene water views.
