This is a WATERFRONT home that transcends expectations and delivers privacy over prestige exuding quiet, effortless luxury. Tucked away on a private island of 381' of shoreline in Panama City, Florida, this 2025 newly constructed residence is more than just a home...it's a legacy. A rare blend of architectural brilliance, natural beauty, and elevated craftsmanship, this estate redefines coastal living. Designed by Wes Seaborn, built by McIntosh Myers Construction, and curated by Lori Faison Interiors, every element was intentionally crafted to support a lifestyle of beauty, comfort, and refinement.The design is rooted in organic minimalism, elegant in simplicity, yet rich in warmth and texture. A 12' impact rated mahogany door opens to a soft palette of Venetian plaster, shellstone, and white oak select throughout. Light dances across barreled plaster hallways with fused in lighting beneath. It's a quiet symphony of detail. Subtle, yet unforgettable. The vaulted living room is clad in white oak select with a fluted plaster fireplace and Nano doors that open to a sprawling covered lanai. The adjoining dining room, wet bar, and open kitchen invite gatherings, centered around paneled SubZero and Miele appliances, concrete countertops with fused in sinks, and custom EF San Juan cabinetry. A remarkable scullery and discreet storage keep the space functional yet clean perfect for entertaining or daily life.Spanning 5,364 SF of heated/cooled space and 8,543 SF under roof, the main residence exudes a highly desirable floorplan. All bedrooms enjoy breathtaking panoramic water views. Offering seamless Gulf access just 10 nautical miles away, without idle zones slowing you down and pure Bay views. At 14' elevation and built of poured solid concrete, this home is as resilient as it is beautiful.The private primary suite is its own tranquil escape, accessed through a barreled, Venetian plaster backlit hallway. Inside, you'll find motorized drapes, a beverage fridge, and a steam shower and soaking tub that will take you straight to the spa. Step through to your private lanai and fireplace for pure relaxation.With four spacious bedrooms, four full en suite baths, and two half baths, there's space for hosting without compromising privacy. A dedicated home office wrapped in oak and plaster, oversized laundry with dual washers/dryers, and a thoughtful mudroom with custom lockers make daily routines effortless. Step outside to the covered lanai and unwind by the outdoor fireplace or summer kitchen. The negative edge pool is a work of art fused with design. Custom tile lined, stone surrounded, and built with a chiller/heater, trough style drains, and no skimmer for a clean, seamless finish.But the performance is just as impressive as the design. Featuring a 4 car garage and built atop a two way slab, the structure features poured CMU block, a concrete roof, copper gutters, Andersen impact rated windows/doors, and a reinforced safe room with poured concrete and rebar. A 500 gallon buried propane tank powers key systems, supported by three HVAC units, three tankless water heaters with circulating pump, a generator ready transfer switch, and a deep irrigation well.Every detail reflects a level of quality rarely seen fused in window and baseboard trim, concealed backlit air returns, modern custom Boyd lighting, solid concrete countertops, and custom 8' solid doors. The Lutron lighting system offers full customization for every mood and moment. For future expansion or guests, the detached carriage house provides 830 SF of space already roughed in with plumbing and electrical ideal for a guest loft, art studio, or wellness retreat.This is more than a residence. This home is a legacy. It's a peaceful sanctuary where design meets intention, where the only thing more breathtaking than the architecture is the view. If you've been searching for a home that's as extraordinary as the life you want to live, you've just found it.
