The property features three separate structures: a main residence, a guest house, and a separate waterfront cabana with bath. In total, the compound offers six bedrooms and six bathrooms, with gourmet kitchens in both the main house and guest house — each outfitted with high-end appliances throughout — ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or an exceptional private retreat. Throughout both residences, the finish detail is exceptional. Designer-selected materials create a cohesive and elevated aesthetic carried seamlessly across the entire compound.

An outdoor shower provides added convenience after boating or swimming. Perched at the edge of the peninsula, the waterfront cabana and adjacent hot tub create a private, spa-like retreat suspended over the water — an unforgettable setting to take in sweeping sunset views.
