Known as Villa Amalfi—but not the Amalfi in Italy you’re thinking of—1351 Cocoanut Road in Boca Raton, Florida, is a newly completed modern mansion getting attention on the market. While luxury listings in this affluent area are nothing unusual, this home asking $11.5 million takes appreciating nature to another level.
The focal point is a $20,000 ancient olive tree imported from California and surrounded by a reflection pool in a glass-wrapped courtyard. Certainly not something you see every day in Florida or that buyers come across often. Inside the six-bedroom residence, modern architecture and Asian principles mingle. The home’s biophilic design continuously puts organic elements in the spotlight, harkening to a wellness spa or a getaway in Bali.
Water is showcased from nearly every major living space, the lines blur between indoors and out, and the interiors feels clear and light thanks to details like the floating staircase and floor-to-ceiling glass. Further perks include a relaxing Zen garden, a resort-style pool, a dual-island chef’s kitchen, and glamorous primary suite complete with dual bathrooms, dressing rooms, and a private terrace.
Located just three blocks from the beach, this unique new build is waiting for someone who wants to dive into a luxurious South Florida lifestyle. And, values tranquility. Senada Adzem and Anthony Siconolfi of Douglas Elliman holds the listing.
