The rear elevation unfolds around a breathtaking 125,000-gallon resort-style pool complete with cascading waterfalls, bordered by natural stones, a water slide, diving board and expansive terraces that rival five-star destinations. At twilight, the towering palms and illuminated architecture reflect across the shimmering water, creating a setting reminiscent of an exclusive private resort with intimate lounge settings that invite grand entertaining and quiet moments of retreat. For the automotive enthusiast, the estate includes a 10-car garage equipped with two vehicle lifts.
