A grand courtyard entrance welcomes you to Seacove, and hints at the magnificence within. The main villa is an architectural masterpiece of polished coralstone floors, carved coral pillars and dramatic archways set against an artistic counterpoint of native bluebit stone walls inlaid with seashells from around the world. On the main level, the spacious Great Room's high ceilings, custom handcarved cypress furniture, and sink-into sofas share space with dining areas and a wonderful custom kitchen superbly outfitted with stainless-steel appliances inlcuding two refrigerators, a gas cooktop, double ovens, Caphalon cookware and a generous collection of tableware. French doors open out to Seacove's upper terrace which overlooks enchanting blue ocean views. Adjoining the Great Room is the air-conditioned media room and library adorned with beautifully handcrafted woodwork, a large-screen TV, music, movies, books and a wet bar. The air-conditioned king master suite adjoins, with a separate office complete with an internet-ready computer and a fax machine. A fabulous his-and-hers master bathroom/dressing room completes this lavish suite. Stairs lead to Seacove's lower level and to its second living area equipped with a large-screen TV, wet bar and mini-fridge; this area opens directly out to a covered terrace bordered by the heated pool, whimsically inlaid with tile turtles. The second and third air-conditioned bedroom and bath are situated on opposite sides of the pool terrace. Across the courtyard is the two-story Gatehouse, each level offering an air-conditioned queen bedroom/bath suite (the lower suite has a complete small kitchen, and the upper suite two scenic balconies). All bedrooms are air-conditioned and fully screened.
