Property Description
This river-to-river estate was built to capture the essence of old-world New Orleans while relishing in the unsurpassed tropical setting that is only found on the East Coast of Florida. Located on the barrier land of Merritt Island, this incredible home is like no other. This one-owner estate was built and designed to create the image of an iconic 1700 French Quarter home. Built on an elevation the foundation is a sturdy Coquina rock shelf (not in a flood zone) and the home sits up and away from the water while maintaining incredible views of the rivers on both sides. The ornate wrought iron scrolling rails adorn the front of the dual-layered wrap-around balconies. Aged brick reminiscent of the old world extends from the walkway and leads to the grand ste

'||chr(10)||'The winding staircase to the third floor reveals a gathering place in the center where a family room is set up with a morning bar that was built before it was vogue.

The insulated garage doors are made from durable secure steal with low-maintenance Deco Wood finish which includes a hard-wearing marine-grade powder coating while maintaining the natural aesthetics of real aged timber.'||chr(10)||'Construction'||chr(10)||'Not to be outdone, not only is the quality of craftsmanship unsurpassed but the attention to detail on the construction is remarkable. The home was built to be highly hurricane resistant featuring insulating concrete forms (ICF) that provide stabilization between the floor joist system that is reinforced with poured concrete. This provides superior wind protection (200+ mph), fire deceleration, and noise resistance. The wall insulation is rated high, and the glass is impact resistant made by Hurd which is a respected window manufacturer. To further contribute to the defense the windows and door trim is the only wood used in the construction making termites uninvited. The walls are framed with corrosion-resistant rebar coated metal studs making this fortress superior. The roof is comprised of a single-ply membrane, Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO), which is typically reserved for commercial buildings and features solar panels for hot water and a solar panel conduit installed. The patio is sealed with a synthetic coating that is made to not degrade, chalk, or crack under harsh UV rays, pounding water, the smooth surface offers excelled resistance to mold, mildew, and staining. When asked, the seasoned builder said, "I don't know of a home in Brevard County that was built to withstand the elements like this one." Assembled to be fire and corrosion resistant, the stairs throughout are made of commercial-grade aluminum and the screws and nails used are stainless steel. The house comes equipped with an app-managed security system, Sono sound with speakers in the main rooms, balconies, porches, and a whole house generator is ready if needed. In a meeting discussing the details of the materials used to build this fortress, the builder and owner discussed that to build this home now would be well over $600.00 per square foot just for the structure then there is the spectacular river-to-river lot on top of that This truly is a one of kind home, estate, resort, waterfront oasis.'||chr(10)||'Location'||chr(10)||'Merritt Island is situated on the Intracoastal waterways between the Indian River and the Banana River.
