This architectural gem with panoramic views from the Pensacola skyline to the bay bridge is located in the Aragon neighborhood. This extraordinary custom built home carefully blends selected historic elements with new construction. In character with surrounding homes, two oversized front porches feature six sets of dramatic French doors and set the stage for the 12’ ceilings, a grand vestibule with a stained glass window from a Victorian home, an elegant glass chandelier, and intricate custom ironwork used both inside and on the exterior. All flooring is mixed width reclaimed heart pine from mid-1800’s homes in Mississippi. The library/formal dining room with adjacent butler’s pantry and large wine fridge, is sized for entertaining and accented by ceiling height cabinetry designed for books or collections. A true chef’s kitchen, with oversized quartz island, Wolf 48” dual gas range and double ovens (one steam), Sub Zero fridge and The Galley sink, becomes part of the spacious family and breakfast area. The neutral painted cabinets and walk in pantry provide generous storage. The back porch windows/French doors view a lovely New Orleans style courtyard with pavers, pond, and native plants. Bedrooms are on the second floor, with the master bedroom and deep porch fronting Romana St. A luxurious master bath is welcoming with walk in marble shower, free-standing tub and custom Carrera marble double vanity. The two additional bedrooms have abundant natural light and share a bath. A large laundry room with cabinets and sink are conveniently located. A piece de resistance, the tower room (3rd floor) has breathtaking panoramic views, and while currently used as an office/study, provides many options for use. Additional features include an integrated surround sound system, Bevolo exterior lighting, 15 sets of Spanish Cedar doors and a detached garage. In walking distance to downtown and the bay, this sophisticated, upscale home is truly a rare opportunity.
