Tucked away off the historic brick streets of St. Augustine sits this showcase modernist oasis delivering a dream residence like no other! Known to some as the ''Icon'' in the coveted Abbott Tract, this work of art offers unrivaled sophistication, surrounded by lush gardens, exquisite custom craftsmanship and a simplicity to living! Captivating vistas of the Matanzas Bay stretching to the Atlantic Ocean from the multiple rooms and the 3rd floor skydeck! The exterior of this 3,313 sq ft home is meticulously crafted with Ipe (Brazilian walnut) hardwood siding, cement panels, copper panels, and fastened with over 8,000 stainless steel screws, combining durability with low maintenance. The use of natural colors and organic materials blends beautifully together by day while the custom color mood lighting indoors & out gives the perfect vibe at night. Entering through the center pivot front door, the luxurious interior impresses with Inca Basalt stone floors, stained Ipe accent walls with clean lines and smooth finishes, perfect for displaying your latest artistic investment. The kitchen is a culinary dream featuring zebra wood cabinetry, Icy Flower soapstone countertops, high-end Miele and SubZero appliances, drawer dishwashers, and a hidden walk-in pantry. It opens seamlessly into a voluminous living area with three ten-foot high pivoting glass doors that lead out to a private tropical oasis complete with a stunning saltwater pool and spa, covered porch and an exquisitely carved Buddha head fountain. The outdoor space is surrounded by lush tropical palms, giant timber bamboo, and citrus trees, a paradise for relaxation and entertainment. Returning inside, the recently constructed expansive dining area is perfect for entertaining with a sitting area, drybar and beverage fridge. A few steps downstairs lead you to a versatile living area, currently used as a piano bar with built-in wine cooler and a wall of mirrored privacy windows.
