Elegant Country Estate With Pool In Katama

POINT B EXCLUSIVE - Sited at the end of a long private drive, amid a bucolic 1.5-acre meadow setting with stone retaining walls and lush perennial gardens, this elegant country estate, designed by noted architect Patrick Ahearn, offers the epitome of luxurious living in Katama.

The brand-new home has timeless and charming character highlighted by thoughtful, top-notch architectural details and styling throughout -- like custom millwork and paneling, antique rough-hewn beams, and more. The expansive Main Level is comprised of a welcoming foyer, flanked on either side by an Office/Den and Game Room with pool table. The foyer opens into a spacious sun-filled Great Room with vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, multiple seating areas, and two sets of French doors that open onto a large screened porch, and then out to the Pool Area. New pictures added as available.

The fully-equipped Cook's Kitchen is anchored by a large center island with counter seating and features stone countertops, custom cabinets, and top-grade stainless steel and cabinet-fronted appliances. The Kitchen looks out to a TV/Family Room with gas fireplace -- as well as a sunny formal Dining Room with vaulted ceiling. French doors open out to a Dining Patio for outdoor dining, and an outdoor Living Area with pergola, wood-burning fireplace, and seating by the pool.

There are a total of three bedrooms -- all with en suite baths -- located on the Main Level, including a Primary Suite with vaulted ceilings, walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with double vanity, glass walk-in shower, and soaking tub. French doors open out to the Pool Area and outdoor shower. A private staircase above the garage, leads to the second-floor bedroom suite with vaulted ceilings and en suite bath.

Outdoor living centers around the 18 by 36-foot heated gunite pool with built-in spa. There is a large bluestone patio surround that connects with the outdoor Living Area. A large screened porch with seating connects the pool area with the Great Room. The property is ideally located near South Beach, with the sounds of the ocean nearby.

NOTE: Pool is heated to 81 degrees and the hot tub is heated to 102 degrees in July and August; and included in the rent. There is a surcharge of $600/week in May and October (if pool and hot tub are open), and $400/week in June and September.
