A one-of-a-kind architectural landmark, masterfully reimagined for modern living. The Gustav Weber Jr. House seamlessly blends timeless design with contemporary luxury, following a comprehensive two-year transformation by Shoreland Group, completed in 2023. Set on a lush double lot, this private tropical retreat features a 15’ x 30’ heated saltwater pool, specimen trees, bamboo garden, secluded lawn and expansive covered outdoor living area. Soaring 9’–14’ ceilings, oversized impact windows and skylights flood the interiors with natural light. The single-story main residence offers three bedrooms, complemented by a detached guest cottage with a fourth bedroom, full bath, kitchenette and separate laundry. The extensive renovation included reconstruction of the kitchen wing, a reconfigured floor plan, and new roof, electrical, plumbing, three-zone HVAC, impact windows and doors, skylights and insulation. Original oak floors complement new hardwood, Ann Sacks terrazzo marble, Clé cement tile, custom millwork and designer finishes. The chef’s kitchen features a six-burner BlueStar range and built-in microwave/speed oven. Rare city-supplied natural gas serves cooking, hot water and pool heating. Additional features include a dedicated laundry room, gated parking, underground utilities and curated gardens. A distinctive turnkey residence offering exceptional craftsmanship, modern infrastructure and resort-style living.
