Hidden away within the exclusive Xanadu section of the Old Fort Bay gated community, this remarkably secluded beachfront sanctuary represents the ideal combination of refinement, privacy and tranquility. Located on a private gated road at the highest point of the prestigious enclave, this 15,675 sq. ft., 6-bedroom, 7-bathroom, 5-half bath estate boasts panoramic views on all sides. To the north, stunning ocean vistas open up to the horizon beyond the property’s private and isolated white-sand beach. To the south, the picturesque Old Fort canals are framed by the stunning natural beauty of the Bahamas.
The home’s elegant neoclassical exterior is complemented by serene, discreet landscaping. Through 19th-century Parisian-style double doors with custom brass features by The Nanz Company, you enter a bright foyer, where a striking staircase with a recessed brass banister and a Larose Guyon chandelier provide a modern take on the classical entry hall.
The main floor is a study in refinement with Parisian wall paneling, herringbone white oak floors, designer light fixtures, and impressive slabs of travertine, onyx, and blue Azul Cielo marble. The great room features 12-foot coffered ceilings, a formal and casual sitting area, and dual fireplaces framed in marble and brass inlay. Expansive glass doors open to dramatic ocean views.
At one end of the great room, marble framed double arches lead to a bright and spacious open-concept kitchen featuring art deco brass details, professional-grade appliances and a warm, inviting dining area. The far end of the great room opens into the lounge – a whimsical yet refined gathering place with walls adorned with massive panels of hand-painted gold leaf wallpaper by de Gournay. Floor to ceiling white oak built-in cabinetry stands opposite a stunning bar entirely crafted entirely in exquisite pink onyx.
Two ground-floor bedroom suites offer ocean views, floor-to-ceiling travertine bathrooms, and grass cloth wallpaper, while two powder rooms showcase luxurious finishes, including Baccarat light sconces and custom brass faucets.
Beyond the great room’s glass doors, an outdoor covered living room and kitchen flow into an infinity pool, blending seamlessly with the ocean and horizon. Menotti furniture completes this inviting space, where the sound of waves and a soft breeze create a timeless ambiance.
From the foyer, climb the elegant Ombré staircase runner to the upper living quarters, or take the chic brass-accented elevator, encased from floor to ceiling in blue marble. Two substantial, thoughtfully-designed bedrooms with beautifully appointed ensuite bathrooms are housed in one wing. The other wing comprises the master suite, an oasis of serenity boasting wall-to-wall white silk carpeting, a fireplace set in blue marble, a luxurious, super king size bed with custom upholstered with cashmere by Loro Piana, and a spacious his and her closet featuring a rare naturally-lit beauty table. All three upstairs bedrooms open on to an expansive travertine terrace with breathtaking panoramic ocean views unobstructed by the almost invisible frameless glass railings.
Wellness and relaxation are central to the amenities of this property. The main house contains an infrared sauna in the master suite as well as a hyperbaric chamber. The detached, oceanside full luxury gym and yoga space sits atop a truly amazing subterranean wellness and self-care retreat including 15-person steam sauna, separate dry sauna, massage therapy suite, cold plunge room, powder room and a full hair and nail salon.
Additional features include first and second-floor offices, a high-tech server room, a 3–4 car garage, and a 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom staff quarters with a kitchen, living room, gym, and laundry rooms in both the main house and gym.
