Opulence abounds from the first glimpse of this architectural masterpiece in The Sanctuary of Boca Raton. Absolutely stunning, this custom built home is nearly 16,000 square feet of exquisite craftsmanship from the grand rooms of the main house to the resort-style pool and immaculate landscaping down to the smallest details that extend to the guest home. A home like this must be set to a backdrop just as breathtaking and The Sanctuary delivers. Approaching the home, surrounded by well-manicured, lush, tropical landscaping and blanketed by trees over 50' high, tumbled charcoal pavers welcome you to the entrance and garage area. Stone soffits highlighted by dark wood pecky cypress outriggers peek from beneath the terra cotta barrel tile roof, upstaged only by hand carved stone window trim and a rotunda banding imported from Turkey. Made of the highest quality carved wood, 12 arched double doors highlighted by the intricate hand carved stone welcomes you. Two stories of windows frame the grandeur of the home. A grand salon and a view into the Chicago brick lined wine cellar lead to gallery with five arches lined with rope stone and crystal Fine Art pendants. The formal dining room mesmerizes with antique glass adorned ceiling beams and a tea-stained, Fine Art crystal chandelier. The wine cellar has easy to see wine bottle storage, while a mixture of Chicago brick and slate flooring accent the faux painted, hand-plastered walls, barrel ceiling and wine country murals. Four wine barrel bottoms mounted to the wall add an extra special touch. The kitchen is what chefs' dreams of with state of the art appliances including a 60" Capital Culinary series gas range, two Decor electric ovens, warming drawer, two Miele dishwashers, two sub-zero refrigerators, two additional sub-zero refrigerator drawers, ice maker, a Miele coffee system and four sinks with disposals. State of the art lighting shows off two islands with double OG edge granite tops, a copper vegetable prep sink, custom cabinetry and moldings; beaded glass door facets catch the light in this beautiful space. An eight seat breakfast nook rounds out the space. The four-sided dome ceiling detail anchored with hammered iron bands and LED lit crown molding house an aged copper and iron hand painted Maitland-Smith chandelier which accent the beautiful beaded inset custom cabinetry. Outside the breakfast room, you'll find an extensive summer kitchen including Perlick appliances, 52 Capital gas grill with rotisserie, custom Lasertron stainless steel cabinets, a six-seat bar, two bar height tables with four stools at each and one of two Sunbrite, anti-glare, weatherproof televisions. All of this is surrounded by stone columns and set on slate floors making the picture-perfect backdrop for outdoor entertaining or a relaxing family cookout. Rounding out the downstairs are equally exquisite rooms including the family room, a club room, home theatre, two powder rooms, office and nanny quarters complete with exterior door. The theater room comes complete with a custom theater curtain. Open the curtain to allow those in the game room to watch what is being shown on the state of the art theater system; close the curtain and you have an intimate setting for a movie night. A rotunda staircase with custom marble risers and treads of antique reclaimed wood lead to an open concept den/study that adjoins two bedrooms for guests or children. Both bedrooms have bathrooms that are done in custom stonework with frameless glass shower doors. The connecting balcony features inviting views overlooking the pool, waterway and preserve. Entering the master bedroom, the floors return to antique, reclaimed hardwood. A double-sided stone fireplace divides the bedroom from her office or parlor.
