Residential

13161 Sabal Chase in Palm Beach Gardens is truly one of the most elegant homes in one of the most prestigious neighborhoods in the Palm Beaches. Situated on a beautifully landscaped and serene one-acre lot, this stately 5-bedroom, 5.2 bath home has much to offer – 6,832 sq. ft. of air-conditioned space, 12,371 sq. ft. under roof and two air-conditioned two-car garages. Attention to finishing details can be seen throughout in the fieldstone and cast stone exterior and the imported French limestone and hardwood flooring, rich built-in wood cabinetry and crown moldings, carved wood tray and box beam ceilings, marble backsplashes, granite countertops, sophisticated lighting fixtures, designer wallpapers and wainscoting in the interior. The elegant two-story foyer opens to a Great Room featuring a disappearing window wall of glass leading to a screened porch extending across the entire length of the house that, with its inviting gas fireplace and cozy seating areas, offers unparalleled views of the Old Marsh nature preserve. The formal entry hall to the very private first floor Master Bedroom Suite overlooks a manicured courtyard, while the Master Bath surrounds you in glass and mirrors and offers a separate tub and shower as well as his and hers vanities with decorator sinks, hardware and lighting. An oversized walk-in closet and a second washer and dryer are two more examples of the many conveniences this home offers. Each of the four Guest Bedrooms boasts custom designer treatments and its own adjoining bath. The gourmet Kitchen features Wolf, Subzero and Miele appliances, two islands for plenty of workspace and a Butler's Pantry that allows for ease of serving to both the separate formal Dining Room and the adjoining Breakfast Room. The richly wood paneled Den/Office serves as a multipurpose getaway for working at home, watching TV, reading or quiet conversation. An expansive covered Lanai with a Summer Kitchen and several separate seating areas surrounds the resort-style Pool and Spa Deck and creates an abundance of space to entertain or simply relax. The second-floor Billiard/Game Room and two of the Guest Bedrooms open to an expansive covered Balcony and the rear stairs lead to a 174 sq. ft. finished and air-conditioned Storage Room. Impact glass throughout and a whole-house generator protects from inclement weather. And then, of course, there is Old Marsh itself, a small and exclusive, gated community, tucked away and intimate, surrounded on three sides by hundreds of acres of beautiful nature preserves that will never be developed. Old Marsh contains only custom estate homes on half-acre or larger lots, with marsh, lake or golf course views. The 18-hole championship golf course was designed by the highly renowned architect Pete Dye and consistently has been ranked one of the best in the United States. No starting times and a nationally acclaimed caddy program enrich your experience on the course. Old Marsh Golf Club, with its recently enlarged clubhouse, its warm and friendly atmosphere and its service oriented staff, has been recognized as one of the top 35 private clubs in the country and Audubon International has awarded it certification for its environmentally enhancing design. It's not hard to picture yourself living here in a house that is warm and elegant, in a gated community that is friendly and secure. A tranquil and relaxing place you would be proud to call home, yet one that is still just minutes from the airport, the ocean, fine public and private schools and all of the shopping, dining, cultural and entertainment venues that the Palm Beaches offer.
