Welcome to this exceptional custom Arthur Rutenberg residence, thoughtfully updated with luxurious finishes throughout. This rare offering blends timeless architectural design, quality craftsmanship, privacy, and breathtaking golf course views—creating a serene setting for elevated Florida living. Perfectly positioned along the 8th hole of the Jones Golf Course, the home offers a tranquil backdrop for everyday living and entertaining. A dramatic arrival begins with a complete landscape redesign, professional lighting for privacy and evening ambiance, a pavered driveway and walkways, and modernized entry pillars. Enter through grand African mahogany doors into a striking interior featuring rich luxury wood flooring, wood beam accents, and an open flowing floor plan. A dramatic stone accent wall and custom niches define the main hallway, while redesigned living spaces throughout offer both elegance and versatility. The formal dining room showcases a dedicated wine cellar accented by a distinctive antique door. The game room provides flexibility and can also serve as a formal living room. The chef’s kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring custom Magnolia cabinetry with quartz counters, a striking custom copper hood, an oversized six-burner gas range with double ovens and griddle, and two expansive islands with both main and prep sinks. High-end built-in appliances complete this incredible kitchen and include an integrated refrigerator, refrigerator drawers, warming drawer, two Bosch dishwashers, and an under-counter microwave drawer.

Updated pool/lanai highlights include marble decking, a sun shelf, pool water features, a clear-view pool cage enclosure and a saltwater pool system including new equipment/gas heater.
