the 11-foot-tall mahogany front door pivots
open, one is swept up in the spectacle of the
breath-taking foyer showcasing a soaring four-
story stair tower sheathed in hand-chiseled
stone, and a sleek floating staircase of exposed
steel. Overhead, an intricate architectural wood
beam ceiling is adorned with a statement chan-
delier and wrapped in clerestory windows for
natural ventilation.
This unforgettable first impression continues
two landings down from the foyer to the open
main living area, which blends the warm, deep
sand views with the striking blue ocean, seam-
lessly creating the ultimate indoor-outdoor oasis
of social interaction or relaxation. "Because this
floor was really built for entertaining," says Feld,
noting the kitchen, great room, dining room,
library/study, beach patio, and integrated stone
powder bath with plantation-shutter appeal, "I
wanted all the family spaces on one level."
To that end, the heart of this arrangement
is the chef's-dream kitchen boasting a water-
fall-top kitchen island with eat-in bar, walk-in
pantry, and designer appliances from Wolf,
Sub-Zero and Miele. The bluish-grey tile back-
splash is a showpiece that, combined with the
Bluestone quartz countertops, offers a cool-
toned contrast to the warm walnut cabinetry.
Adjacent, the dining room highlights a dazzling
mid-century-style chandelier and awning-es-
que windows, under which is an elaborate
entertaining area containing a wine refrigerator
cabinet, beverage fridge, Kegerator, and more.
Just beyond, the great room with sumptuous
mahogany ceiling gazes out at sand, sea and
sky. Backdropped by this cinematically scenic
expanse, bi-fold privacy glass doors—including
some that fold into the fireplace itself, creat-
ing the illusion that the hearth is holding up the
house—open the space to the elevated beach
