Those with large families who enjoy entertaining, and insist on only the finest of all things, will be intrigued by this South Florida estate.

The interior of the home is as striking as the exterior, with double iron and glass doors opening onto the two-story-tall living room, with a mezzanine-level walkway above leading to bedrooms and common areas. (Courtesy of James Northen / ONE Sotheby's International Realty)

Set on an extensively landscaped five-acre lot stretching from the beach to the Intracoastal Waterway, the three-story, six-bedroom, seven full-bath, two half-bath home is a massive 23,000 square feet in size. The driveway leading to the property passes by a two-story, 2,000-square-foot guesthouse before arriving at the main residence, which exudes stately elegance.

The master bath features a walk-in shower, a stand-alone tub, his and hers vanities, and a capacious adjacent walk-in closet. (Courtesy of James Northen / ONE Sotheby's International Realty)

The exceptionally airy living room with two-story-tall floor-to-ceiling windows lies just inside the double entry doors. A winding staircase leads to the upper levels, while wood flooring accents a most impressive fireplace dominating the room. A well-equipped chef’s kitchen lies adjacent to the formal dining room, featuring expansive marble counters and an island incorporating a casual breakfast nook.

After dining, the residents can enjoy a movie in the home theater (which was modeled after the Getty Museum in Los Angeles), read a favorite book in the cozy wood-beamed office/library, or just relax on the third-level sundeck.
