13435 STARFISH DRIVE

PRICE IMPROVEMENT!!! SPECTACULAR SUNSETS AND PANORAMIC OCEAN VIEWS are a way of life at this thoughtfully designed Gulf-front estate a.k.a. fortress. A home built to this construction rating is rare and refreshing. This 3,839 square foot, 5 bed, 4 and a half bath, plus den and 3 car garage Gulf Front home has many perks to include a 980 square foot first floor apartment that could be used as a separate living space, base of operations for pool parties, or home office. Perfectly placed at the corner of two deep-water canals with DIRECT ACCESS to the Gulf of Mexico, this oversized cul-de-sac lot has room for all of your water toys with 200 linear feet of generous waterfront that wraps around the West and North sides of the home equaling 1000 square feet of concrete dock. A water lovers paradise, only lush mangroves across the West canal separate the home from the Gulf and create incredible fishing for humans and dolphins. The floating dock has two jet ski ports, and leaves room to add several boat lifts to hold your boat, or for rentable dock space (riparian rights extend 1/3 into canal.) There are davits in place to lift small boats. The exquisite backyard showcases the multi-million dollar view just beyond your lush tropical landscaping and firepit area. The heated saltwater pool with spill-over spa and LED color change light is surrounded by nearly 1000 square feet of gorgeous paver pool decking. The second and third floors have a bountiful 600 square feet of elevated cantilever engineered concrete decking. This home has a grand entrance with a wide double staircase leading up to the front door. Upon entry, you are greeted with the grandeur of the view through the living room with a wall of windows and 20 foot ceilings. The main floor includes gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, built-in double wall oven and convection microwave, 5 burner cooking island, yards of counter space, plus dining room pass through. On this floor you will find three additional bedrooms plus 2 and a half baths and laundry. Two north bedrooms share walk-through bath with jetted tub, walk-in shower, and water closet. Third split bedroom has oval soaking tub and walk in closet. Entire third floor is the Master Suite. A wide catwalk leads to French doors that open to your HUGE slumber paradise featuring a wall of sliding doors to it’s own private deck. Wake to amazing Gulf views to the horizon. The 6 piece master bath includes corner jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower with dual shower heads and temperature controls, water closet with Bidet, dual sinks, and vanity area. The walk-in closet is massive, plus another walk-in is at the end of the catwalk. This master bedroom is a true retreat. Downstairs hosts the additional apartment style living space with living room, full kitchen, bedroom, sitting room/den, and bathroom with washer dryer hookup. Plenty of storage for toys with two separate garages; a 1 car garage, plus a main 2 car garage, plus 15x14 area with industrial strength shelves and removable dance floor. Built to Florida Keys Elevated Concrete Building standards, to say this home is constructed like a fortress is an understatement. Over engineered to last 100 years with poured and concrete block piers, walls & floors on all levels, plus metal studs and plaster finish walls to virtually fireproof the structure, nothing is built quite like this. Turkish lamps in stairwell and master bath do not convey. Owner is F L R E broker.
