With exposed concrete surfaces and elevated living, this tropical modern house delivers lofty volumes and high performance. Health is the central focus of this innovative design, which features nontoxic finishes, exposed concrete slabs with exterior insulation, and walls of lime plaster and wood paneling that open for access to plumbing. This house is the first in Florida designed to meet both LEED Platinum & WELL for residential standards. Other features include a large rooftop solar array, powerwall batteries, and electric vehicle charging. An enormous outdoor living area stretches under the house, plus a semi-enclosed garage for two cars. Located just north of the Grove, east of the Gables, and south of Coral Way, this home is a sanctuary with easy access to the best of the city.
