This contemporary custom-built home with sweeping double-fairway golf course views sits on a quiet cul-de-sac in the exclusive St. Andrews Country Club.
"The house is on one of the finest locations in the entire community of St. Andrews," said listing agent Mark Nestler. "You’re not near any roads so you don’t have any traffic noise."
"The house overlooks a lake and a fairway and another fairway behind that one," he said. "The view goes on forever—it’s spectacular."
Built in 2013, the 13,838-square-foot house has been featured on the cover of Florida Design magazine.
"When you walk in, there is a feeling of spaciousness and openness, yet there is intimacy in every room," Mr. Nestler said.

Separating the two wings are indoor and outdoor family rooms, a central dining area and a modern gourmet kitchen.
"The outdoor family room is a phenomenal indoor-outdoor living space," Mr. Nestler said. "You can have it closed in and air-conditioned or you can open it up to the elements."
Above the master suite is a second-floor office with a separate conference area and balcony.
