Welcome to 83 Poquito Road, a classic colonial-style bayou-front estate meticulously designed for gracious entertaining and everyday living. This exemplary custom built 1.48-acre gated estate is uniquely situated on Poquito Bayou offering over 450' of waterfront, a rare private peninsula and second-to-none open bayou views. Spanning just shy of 6,200 square feet, are 4 stately sized bedrooms with 4.5 bathrooms; however, spaces may be modified to create a 5th, 6th or 7th bedroom. This estate celebrates the art of fine living with spacious rooms revealing an artful eye for casual luxury. As you enter through the iron gates, enjoy the mature lush landscaping with an expansive brick paver circular drive and exquisite mahogany front door opening into a grand two-story foyer with an inviting freestanding wood curved staircase. Flooring throughout the home is graced with natural oak hardwood and 10ft ceilings. Directly off the foyer is a den/music room adorned with a Swarovski crystal chandelier and elegant glass french doors. Adjoining the foyer is the formal dining room featuring a classic fireplace with a marble inlay, Swarovski crystal chandelier and a 100 year old acid etched glass door leading into the kitchen. The remodeled, spacious kitchen features solid soft close custom cabinets with ornate hardware, granite countertops imported from Brazil, stone range hood, a large center island, breakfast bar, Wolf and Viking appliances, plus other exceptional features combined for an ideal chef's kitchen along with a sunny breakfast area. The kitchen opens to a large living room with soaring 21ft ceilings, a grand Swarovski crystal chandelier and a classic fireplace with a granite inlay. Abutting to the living room is a bar with custom cabinets, granite countertops, wine refrigerator, mini refrigerator and a commissioned painted ceiling from a local 30A artist. Located on the second floor is the luxurious master suite with a cozy waterfront sitting area, another classic fireplace with a granite inlay, balconies overlooking the bayou/pool area along with a private office with quartz countertops. Indulge in the spa-inspired master bath featuring dual vanities with a stone countertop, oversized Jacuzzi tub, a large walk-in glass shower with a rain shower head and an impeccable custom closet with a built-in washer/dryer. Two additional bedroom suites are located on the opposite side of the second level with a Jack & Jill bathroom. Occupying the walk-out basement is a guest suite, bathroom, a second entertainment kitchen and a elongated living and dining room open to the outdoors. Not to be overshadowed by the interiors, the outdoor spaces are equally enchanting. Enjoy the wondrous water views of Poquito Bayou with your own unique peninsula that gives you over 450' of private waterfront. Highlights of the rear yard entertaining spaces are a heated pool that spans 38' overlooking the bayou, a cabana, covered boat dock with a lift, a smaller dock for loading/unloading and plenty of white sand to feel like you're at the beach adorned with palm trees. Everything on this estate has been thoughtfully designed and creatively crafted for a lifestyle of grandeur and comfort. Come see why it's in excellent proximity to all that the Emerald Coast has to offer; an estate that has to be experienced to be truly appreciated.
