A sprawling waterfront residence has sold for $62 million — the most expensive home in the history of Naples real estate. Located at 25 16th Avenue South on 1.5 acres of lushly landscaped grounds, this direct beachfront paradise offers front-row seats to the Gulf of Mexico. Paul Arpin of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s Broad Avenue office, worked with the owner in 2014 to find the property and build the home, and has now represented both the buyer and seller.

Designed by Randall Stofft and John Cooney of Stofft Cooney Architects and crafted by Dave Rogers of Newbury North Associates Inc., in collaboration with Jeffrey Strasser from Marc-Michaels Interior Design, the furnished six-bedroom estate encompasses more than 16,000 total square feet of luxury living. Encapsulating modern sophistication, cutting-edge design and meticulous attention to detail, its stylishly appointed interior employs the finest materials available amid elegant architectural elements and portrays the sense of a warm and comfortable beach house that the owners desired.

“Just walking by you would not realize what masterpiece exists in this hidden gem as it sits behind private, luxury landscaping. Incorporating organic wood, soft stone, water and natural light, the home is in total harmony with its tranquil surroundings,” Mr. Arpin said. “The discerning buyers requested a residence with no compromises, and they saw the value in this resort-style retreat offering prime water frontage and unrivaled craftsmanship in an enviable location. Its record-breaking sale price reflects the strength of the luxury real estate market and the enduring appeal of Naples’ Gulf-front lifestyle.”

An oversized stairway serves as the centerpiece of the residence leading into an array of curated spaces including a dining room with two adjacent dining tables, a built-in glass wine room and grand piano. An impressive all-glass hallway lines the south wing featuring a club room and guest suite with private living area. A grand gourmet kitchen is highlighted by an expansive island, built-in cabinetry and a second kitchen/pantry that seamlessly flows into the family room, balcony, and pool on the second level. The game room is complete with a media area, a conversational area with four club chairs and multiple balconies while a bar boasts custom cabinetry, countertops and teak window sliders that open to the balcony for effortless entertaining.

A serene natural setting designed by landscape architect Koby Kirwin frames two of the estate’s most jaw-dropping features— a first-floor pool and a second-floor infinity edge pool capturing uninterrupted, panoramic vistas. The home is expertly appointed with uncommon, uncompromising Tischler Und Sohn windows and is equipped with an exercise wing over the three-car garage and two gracious motor courts.

“The elegance of this contemporary relaxed beach house was stemmed by the collaboration of the architect, the clients and the designers by the use of natural organic materials, mixed with metals, textured stones, and unique decorations.” Said Jeffrey Strasser, former chief creative officer, Marc-Michaels Interior Design.
