This is a rare opportunity.
The penthouse at 11 Royal Palm Pointe checks all the boxes, with five-star luxury construction and a superb location. An elegant, spacious residence with sweeping intracoastal views, it epitomizes Vero’s sophisticated coastal lifestyle. There is an adjacent walkable strip of restaurants and shops shaded by many trees and swept with sea breezes, and everything Vero has to offer on the mainland and island is close at hand. You will be only three doors down from the Quail Valley at The Pointe Country Club.
Flanked by namesake Royal Palms, the impressive mahogany entrance door is the first taste of the generational quality within. From the gleaming Travertine marble main lobby, an elevator lifts you to your private haven. From the elevator, step into your personal lobby, where a graceful pendant extends from the octagonal tray ceiling. To the right is a door to your home’s “back hall,” with garbage shoot and emergency stairs.
Immediately ahead, French doors open into the den, which has a relaxing, comfy vibe, featuring plantation shutters, ceiling fan and wood plank-look tile flooring. The star here is a gorgeous, honey-hued, solid-wood, wall-to-wall custom built-in, with shelving and glass-front cabinetry for books and display items and a central space for TV hook-up.
The nearby powder room is a bright charmer, with white pedestal sink and loo, and white chair rail and wainscotting beneath a wonderfully blue upper wall with white selves and decorative golden starfish.
Left off the foyer, are the light-filled central living spaces, embracing kitchen, dining room and grand parlor/living room, where three sets of glass French doors reveal the full-length, covered balcony with a certifiable “million-dollar view” that takes in a sweep of wide lagoon, sky, boats, dolphin, seabirds and Vero’s famous barrier island across the water.
It is here you’ll bring your morning coffee and your evening beverage to relax and enjoy the vibrant colors of Florida’s unparalleled sunrises and sunsets.
Beneath a graceful black multi-shade chandelier, the dining room is open to the kitchen via a door off the breakfast nook/café. There’s also a wide arched pass-through above the kitchen’s granite countertop, which houses a double stainless-steel sink.
Illuminated by a pair of triangle shade pendant lights, the long, butcherblock-top island features a second, single-basin sink, wine cooler and additional cabinetry. Along the opposite kitchen wall are floor and wall cabinets, including glass-front display cabinets. Here, too, are the gas cooktop, double wall oven, tile backsplash, and under-cabinet lighting. The extra-large, side-by-side fridge has a matching cabinet front.
Flowing from the dining room is the beautiful grand parlor, an endlessly relaxing, ever-so-inviting space for all sorts of gatherings.
The primary suite is a serene and private space with two large, custom walk-in closets, a glorious bathroom with long, matching, full-mirror, single-basin vanities; a large, jetted tub; a walk-in shower, and two separate, private water closets, one with a bidet.
This splendid suite opens through French doors onto your private covered balcony. And you have but to lift your head from the pillow to see gorgeous boats passing by on the lagoon’s bright water. It doesn’t get any better than that.
The two ensuite, guest bedrooms occupy the other end of the home, located right from the foyer, past the laundry room and powder room.
Both have closets, ensuite bathrooms, and terrific views, one from its own private balcony.
Royal Palm Pointe is just a few minutes away from the downtown art gallery and dining district, Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital and Vero’s famed Village by the Sea, with fine and casual dining, beach shops and elite boutiques, live theater, an outstanding fine art museum, resorts, country clubs, parks, marinas and miles of clean, uncrowded Atlantic Ocean beaches with lifeguards stationed at popular swimming spots.
