Crystalina

800 South Ocean Boulevard | Manalapan, Florida
Offered at: $30 Million

Crystalina entices ever-changing waterscapes and luxuriant landscapes into every room of this artistic triumph.

Crystalina’s vision is made reality through the creation of floor-to-ceiling vistas of the azures, cobalts and turquioses of the Atlantic and the serene, shimmering waters of the Intracoastal Waterway. An island derivative, the word Crystalina translates to “crystal clear views.”

Influenced by many tours of the South Pacific, the refreshing combination of expansive glass and Polynesian/Balinese architecture makes Crystalina the most exhilarating and sought after new residence in South Florida.

The Property

Crystalina is set upon 1.6± acres, with 150± breathtaking feet fronting direct Atlantic Ocean-to-Intracoastal Waterway property. It sits proudly 23± feet above the sea, with its oceanfront concrete and steel seawall cresting 14 feet over sea level.

The home offers the unique combination of enjoying a private stroll on the estate’s soft sandy beach and the ability to keep a yacht at your private dock on the Intracoastal Waterway immediately across from the residence.

The Grounds and Residence

In addition to the abundant use of glass, a few of Crystalina’s extraordinary features include:

  • A bridge-over-water front door entryway, revealing an oceanfront grand salon and family room with glass doors that open to 24 feet of unobstructed seascape.
  • Beyond the ultra-wide glass doors lies a 75-foot long knife-edge family swimming pool with shallows and circular glass spa.
  • A mature tropical garden paradise where a 4-room “treehouse” guesthouse is found nestled up in a specimen strangler fig tree connected by suspension bridge to a second guest house with loft. The imaginative engineering allows the bridge to span over a grotto waterfall and lagoon pool. The bridge connects guests back to the main home, at the base of the motorcourt.
  • A 2,000± sq. ft. grand oceanfront master bedroom suite boasting floor-to-ceiling windows in the sleeping chambers and in his/hers expansive bath, floating glass fireplace, two-sided TV projecting over a wood soaking tub and into the double entry oversized glass steam shower, also with unobstructed ocean vistas.
  • An oceanfront office sporting all oceanside glass overlooking the knife-edge pool. The office is separated from the family room by a full salt water aquarium wall, which connects to an aquarium wet bar. Set your martini on the glass bar top and watch the exotic tropical fish swim beneath!
  • A 3-level glass elevator glides inside a 4-sided glass shaft where the exterior glass shaft walls are cascading waterwalls.
  • A spacious and open covered oceanfront dining terrace located off the main kitchen and pool, complete with TVs, sit down wet bar, refrigerator, ice maker, gas range, cabana bath, and ample seating.
  • 7 bedrooms, 9 baths, oversized study and theater, secondary family room or fitness studio upstairs, subterranean wine cellar, state-of-the-art home automation.
