Ahead of its time, the residence incorporates, hidden architectural controls, extensive custom storage, integrated pet accommodations, and innovative features that preserve its minimalist aesthetic. Cypress vaulted ceilings, expansive clerestory impact windows, engineered oak flooring, custom Rudy Art glass, and distinctive architectural finishes showcase extraordinary craftsmanship. Integrated entertainment systems, upgraded security cameras, automated window treatments, and programmable lighting provide modern convenience without compromising the home's artistic integrity. Surrounded by mature tropical landscaping, the property offers exceptional privacy and tranquil lake views. A secluded Zen garden, indoor-outdoor spa, fireplace, swimming pool with water feature, custom stone-and-glass mural, and hand-mitered Mexican lava rock create a private resort-like setting. The primary suite opens to an intimate garden retreat, while the separate pool house features two guest bedrooms overlooking the lake, including a private kitchenette for added convenience. Meticulously maintained and extensively updated, recent improvements include a new 2025 air-conditioning system, restored roof eaves, freshly painted interiors and exteriors, upgraded automated blinds, enhanced irrigation, updated pool equipment, and refreshed exterior lighting. Featured in Gulfshore Life Home and recognized by the American Institute of Architects, the Butterfly House presents an exceptional opportunity to own an internationally celebrated architectural masterpiece in the heart of Naples.
