EVERY DETAIL WAS METICULOUSLY PLANNED AND PERSONALLY OVERSEEN BY OWNER RICHARD BURNS SR., WHOSE HANDS-ON ATTENTION AND COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE GUIDED THE PROJECT EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. THE CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY "CO" IS IN HAND! MOVE-IN READY!! ABSOLUTELY EXTRAORDINARY!!!*** There are luxury homes-and then there are estates that exist in a category entirely their own. Set behind private gates within Landmark Ranch Estates, Southwest Ranches' only gated luxury community, this extraordinary newly constructed residence is one of only 44 estates privileged to call this exclusive enclave home. Encompassing 2.39 beautifully landscaped acres, approximately 34,000+ square feet under roof and an astonishing 23,977 square feet under air, this is not simply a residence. It is a private resort, an entertainment destination, a family compound and a statement of uncompromising luxury. The experience begins before ever stepping inside. Beyond the gates, a long private driveway winds through lush tropical landscaping, deliberately revealing the estate little by little. The architecture, water features and dramatic scale gradually come into view, building anticipation until you arrive at the monumental 15-foot custom pivot entry door-a fitting introduction to what lies beyond. Step inside and the magnitude of the home immediately becomes apparent. Soaring ceilings, walls of glass, exquisite custom carpentry, imported Italian cabinetry, a sculptural floating staircase and impeccable architectural detailing create interiors that feel both grand and remarkably inviting. Formal and informal spaces flow effortlessly together, while expansive glass openings dissolve the boundary between the interior and nearly 6,925 square feet of covered terraces, lanais and breezeways. The main residence has been conceived for a lifestyle where family, privacy and entertaining coexist effortlessly. A dramatic foyer leads to formal living and dining rooms, an expansive family room, intimate family lounge with fireplace, full bar, spectacular 500+ bottle wine room, elevator, safe room and private first-floor bedroom suite. At its heart is a culinary environment worthy of the world's finest residences. The show kitchen pairs custom Italian cabinetry with a complete Gaggenau luxury appliance package, while concealed beyond it is a full butler's kitchen equipped with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances. Whether hosting an intimate dinner or entertaining hundreds, the home was designed to perform beautifully without ever compromising its elegance. Upstairs, the residence transitions into a collection of private retreats. The Primary Wing is a sanctuary unto itself-an oversized bedroom suite with a separate private TV and sitting lounge, expansive terrace overlooking the resort grounds, his-and-hers walk-in wardrobes and a spa-inspired bath. The extraordinary designer wardrobe has the scale and presentation of a private luxury boutique, creating a dressing experience worthy of an international estate. The separate Children's Wing provides four ensuite bedrooms, four full bathrooms, powder room, study, TV lounge, laundry room, safe room, elevator access and its own balcony-allowing family members to enjoy privacy while remaining connected to the heart of the residence. But it is beyond the main living quarters where this estate begins to redefine what residential luxury can be. The spectacular Man Cave Wing is a destination of its own. Anchored by approximately 2,359 square feet of trophy garage space with dramatic 17-foot ceilings, the garage was designed to accommodate multiple vehicle lifts and an extensive exotic or collector-car collection-with the potential to house up to approximately 25 vehicles with lifts. Above it sits an extraordinary private lifestyle and wellness complex: a gentleman's offic
