Description

Don't miss this rare opportunity to acquire one of the very first grand homes built on Davis Islands. Completed in 1926 and known as La Torretta, it has earned its status on the National Register of Historic Places for Architectural Significance. After an extensive 18-month renovation, it is the perfect blend of 20th Century Italian Revival style updated with all modern conveniences and more! It features a formal living room with hand-painted beamed ceiling and grand fireplace, a formal dining room with fireplace and a new state-of-the-art chef's kitchen. The gleaming wood and marble floors have been refinished and there is a newly renovated library/media room, a 600-bottle wine room and rooftop level entertainment space in the tower overlooking the island. The master suite with onyx bathroom and shower is upstairs with additional bedrooms and a second full bath. The guest house, connected by a covered poolside entertainment area, includes the pool bath, laundry and a private suite for guests. No expense has been spared and no detail has been overlooked in this complete renovation including but not limited to - all new electrical, plumbing, HVAC systems, digital sound system and generator. The exterior has a new irrigation system, new landscaping and lighting. The salt water pool and spa and waterfall have been upgraded with new surfaces, pumps and filtration. This magnificent and one-of-a-kind historic home on Davis Islands must be seen to be truly appreciated.
