Luxury Alys Beach Retreat Showcases Architectural Excellence In Florida

Luxury real estate specialists Hilary and Jacob, in collaboration with Colgan Simon Wright, have unveiled a new residential gem at 285 N. Somerset Street in Alys Beach, Florida. This property stands as a testament to luxury living, offering meticulous craftsmanship and timeless elegance in one of Florida's most sought-after communities. The creation of this home was inspired by the owners' year-long sabbatical abroad, which aimed to embrace a lifestyle rich in culture and culinary delights.

Lesly Simon of Colgan Simon Wright highlighted the vibrant community and architectural beauty of Alys Beach as key factors that make living there exceptional. The residence, which began its conceptual journey in 2017, reflects the owners' dedication to infusing international charm into every corner, thanks to their strategic sourcing of materials during their travels. Esteemed architect David Stocker of SHM Architects and interior designer Ashley Avrea played pivotal roles in bringing this vision to life, with Avrea selecting globally inspired furnishings and a custom-designed Officine Gullo stove from Florence as the centerpiece.

Jacob Watkins of Hilary and Jacob expressed admiration for the sellers' passion for design and family-oriented living spaces. Despite challenges in sourcing materials such as intricate zellige tiles from Morocco, their efforts culminated in a unique sanctuary that epitomizes premium finishes and an environment conducive to both entertainment and family gatherings.

Offered at $12.999 million, 285 N. Somerset Street represents architectural excellence and luxurious living in Alys Beach. Interested parties are encouraged to contact listing agents Jacob Watkins or Lesly Simon for a private tour to experience this unparalleled blend of design and attention to detail firsthand.
