Designed by renowned architect Geoff Chick, this unique Arboleda Point home is one of just six homes in a gated golf-cart-friendly enclave that embraces privacy and nature. With 100 feet of private waterfront, this exclusive residence includes a 40-foot boat slip, making it perfect for leisurely days of fishing, boating and watersports. Looking perfectly at ease within an incredible natural landscape dotted with moss-draped oaks, this custom home makes excellent use of natural materials to reflect this pristine environment.

Showcasing top-quality construction, the home was built by John Becktel in 2024. Clad in old-world stucco, the twin-gabled facade neatly incorporates a two-car, heated-and-air-conditioned garage and a recessed front porch. Venture inside to find timeless oak flooring and airy 12-ft. coffered ceilings, creating a living space that focuses on the stunning waterfront setting. Interior furnishings were carefully curated by Lovelace Interiors. You’ll be drawn through the great room to a wall of glass framing stunning views of the bayou. Bi-fold doors fully open onto the Ipe-decked terrace, extending the living space into its natural surroundings.

This tranquil outdoor haven is perfect for relaxing beneath a lazily turning fan or enjoying the stunning views of Mack Bayou from the private heated pool. After dark, the pool is lit with underwater lighting to complement the surrounding spotlit oaks. It’s the ultimate sanctuary for those who seek privacy and cherish nature. The grass slopes gently down to the water’s edge, where your boat is safely moored nearby. The deepwater mooring has direct access from the bayou to Choctawhatchee Bay. The boat slip is adjacent to a well-appointed boat clubhouse that offers secure storage, an ice maker, a fish-cleaning station and a full kitchen for cooking your catch. Inside, the home is equally enchanting. The great room flows effortlessly from the sitting area, centred on an unpretentious fireplace, to a generous dining area that is ideal for entertaining. A lengthy breakfast bar has four stools for sharing conversation and casual dining. The chef’s kitchen is furnished with custom Grimes Cabinets, rich marble countertops and Thermador stainless steel appliances. A double oven and a six-burner stove sit beneath a statement canopy. There’s an additional scullery with ample prep space, additional storage and a laundry area. Oenophiles can rest easily knowing that their wine collection is stored perfectly in a separate wine room.

Five bedrooms include a lavish first-floor master suite with an adjoining home office. It boasts custom closets, a state-of-the-art bathroom and more glorious views. Accessed by elevator or by stairs, the second floor has a second master suite, three additional guest bedrooms, a family room and a large bonus space. This exceptional home is the perfect sanctuary for discerning buyers who are looking for a luxurious home and lifestyle within a remarkable natural environment.
