Underscoring the transformative beauty of nature and architecture, this serene oceanfront masterwork embodies the principles of design espoused by Frank Lloyd Wright, widely considered the greatest architect of the 20th century. Sheltering rooflines and multi-level garden terraces reinforce the intimate connection of the residence with its landscape, an alluring oasis elevated high above the ocean in Delray Beach’s estate section.






Zen-like tranquility fills this sublime modern classic designed by noted architect Randall Stofft and constructed in 2005 by high-end custom builder Terry Cudmore. Fine natural materials are crafted with artistic vision, rendering each detail an object of beauty.
Arranged on three levels, the expansive nearly 15,000-square-foot living space is tempered with an intuitive sense of scale. Carefully selected turn-key furnishings, imported from around the world, add to the overall feeling of unity and elegant ease. Glass walls beckon to the outdoors, where lounge terraces center on an exquisite pool with river-like waterfall in the absolutely mesmerizing backdrop of open ocean vistas and the sounds of the surf.

Who do I write the check to?

I ride by this house when cycling on A1A. There are quite a few others on this stretch that are just as amazing. I love the ones that have a matching boat house across the street and have a 100'+ Yacht parked.

That sounds sick!

It's the place to live. Cycle past houses even crazier than this every day.

+1 on all the yachts on the intracostal.

I'd like to house sit these for 6mo at a time.

It's a crazy house. Been in it couple of times. His yacht not so bad either. A lot of lights in both.

Driven by this house numerous times as well, impressive place!

SO that's what one of those houses looks like, lol... I drive by there once in a while. Agree the docks accross the streets are pretty nice as well on some of them.
