Some homes are built to impress from the moment you step inside.
This Boca Raton estate? It starts working the second you pull into the driveway.
A newly listed residence at 1831 Sabal Palm Drive has hit the market for $18 million, and it’s the kind of listing that reads like a checklist of everything high-end Florida buyers want right now: a prime golf course lot, big indoor-outdoor sightlines, a massive kitchen setup built for hosting, and enough smart-home infrastructure to make the house run like a resort.
The property sits inside Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, one of Boca Raton’s most exclusive private communities, and it was built by Primo Construction with design by Arianna Tascione. The listing is held by Jackie Feldman with ONE Sotheby’s International Realty.
And while the home is undeniably dramatic, the real story here is the positioning: it’s set on a premier fairway lot with uninterrupted golf course views that basically become part of the home’s interior décor.
Listed for $18M at 1831 Sabal Palm Drive in Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club
The estate is offered at $18,000,000 and comes with 6 bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms. The listing also notes the home spans roughly 8,685 square feet (with an additional figure of 8,567 square feet under air and 12,301 total square feet also referenced in the marketing description).
Translation: this is a big, full-scale estate; one where every major space has been given room to feel intentional, not squeezed.
Custom-built, with designer interiors
This home is presented as a fully custom project, and it wears that identity proudly.
Primo Construction handled the build and Arianna Tascione is credited with the design, and the overall look is very “new Boca”: bold scale, structured geometry, crisp finishes, and a layout designed around entertaining and comfort rather than formality.
A prime fairway lot with golf course views as the backdrop
The lot is the headline feature.
Being “on the course” matters in any golf community, but a premier fairway position is what separates a good lot from a great one. The home leans hard into its panoramic golf views, including sightlines described as reaching directly to the 9th hole.
This is the type of setting that makes a home feel larger than its walls. The view becomes a permanent extension of every room facing the fairway.
A grand arrival sequence with a U-shaped motor court
The arrival is built like an event.
The home’s first impression begins with an oversized U-shaped motor court, framed by landscaping and designed to accommodate multiple cars comfortably. It sets the tone immediately: this is a residence that expects company, and it expects people to show up in style.
A gallery-style entry with soaring ceilings
Inside, the home leans into drama without clutter.
The entry is described as gallery-style, with soaring ceilings and long sightlines that carry straight through the home toward the fairway views beyond. It’s an architectural move meant to make the house feel immediately expansive: no tight foyer, no awkward transition spaces.
Just volume, openness, and a clean path straight to the view.
Three decorative fireplaces anchoring the main living spaces
The home also includes three custom decorative fireplaces, used to ground the main living areas.
In Florida, fireplaces are rarely about staying warm. They’re about atmosphere — and in big estates, they’re also about making expansive rooms feel less cavernous and more cozy.
A climate-controlled wine room for serious storage
A climate-controlled wine room is another feature that fits the overall tone of the property, entertaining-forward and designed for collectors.
It also plays well with the kitchen and bar setup, which is clearly meant to handle gatherings beyond simple dinner parties.
A great room anchored by an architecturally crafted designer bar
This is one of the home’s signature entertaining moments: a great room centered on a designer bar described as architecturally crafted.
The bar functions as a visual focal point, which is exactly what modern “great room” layouts need, otherwise they can feel like large empty rectangles. Here, the bar gives the space identity.
A main kitchen with two oversized islands
The kitchen is built for volume and hosting.
It features two oversized islands, which is the kind of thing you only do when you’re fully committing to the “people will gather here” concept. Two islands means multiple prep zones, multiple serving zones, and enough counter space to support everything from catered parties to low-key breakfasts.
Bespoke cabinetry and top-tier appliances, including Wolf
The kitchen also features bespoke cabinetry and top-tier appliances, with Wolf appliances referenced in the longer property description.
Even without getting too “appliance-y,” the overall message is clear: this is a serious kitchen built for people who actually use their kitchen, not just people who photograph it.
A separate catering kitchen built for effortless hosting
The home includes something that always elevates a listing: a fully equipped catering kitchen.
This is a high-end estate feature for a reason. It keeps mess out of sight, makes entertaining smoother, and allows large-scale gatherings without turning the main kitchen into a disaster zone.
An executive office and conjoined club room
The home includes both an executive office and a conjoined club room, which signals two things: people are working from home, and they still want spaces that feel separate from the main living areas.
A club room also gives the house a “second living room” vibe — somewhere for card nights, cigar-lounge energy, or just a quieter space for adults to retreat from the chaos.
A first-floor primary suite built as a true private zone
The primary suite sits on the first level, which instantly makes the home feel more livable, especially for buyers who want everything important on one floor.
And this isn’t a basic “primary bedroom + bath.” The listing describes it as exceptional in scale, with several standout features that push it into true private wing territory.
Separate his-and-hers bathrooms with boutique-hotel detailing
The primary suite includes a detail that always grabs attention: two separate bathrooms, individually designed.
That’s a big selling point in this market. It’s not just convenience, it’s a signal of customization, and it makes the suite feel like a private spa zone rather than a standard residential setup.
Custom dressing rooms with fully finished closet build-outs
Also attached to the suite: his-and-hers dressing rooms, plus a note that the home features fully finished closets in every bedroom.
That’s one of those details that sounds small until you’ve toured enough homes where closets are an afterthought. Here, storage is treated as part of the design.
A junior primary suite on the second level for guests
Upstairs, the home includes a junior primary suite, giving guests (or extended family) an elevated setup rather than a typical spare bedroom situation.
That’s another sign this home was designed for real use, not just appearances. A junior primary suite makes hosting feel comfortable and long-term.
Wellness setup includes a private gym with infrared sauna and shower
Another strong section of the home: the wellness zone.
There’s a private gym along with an infrared sauna and shower, meaning workouts and recovery are fully built into the residence. It’s not a “treadmill in a spare room” situation — it’s an actual wellness suite.
Control4 automation and centralized lighting throughout the home
Tech is a major part of this estate.
It includes a Control4 home automation system, with centralized lighting and automation features that allow homeowners to manage the home more easily: lighting, shades, audio, and security tech all integrated rather than pieced together.
The home hides a concealed safe room (integrated into the millwork)
One of the most intriguing features is also one of the most practical: a discreet safe room, seamlessly hidden within the home’s custom millwork.
This is the kind of addition that’s become increasingly common in trophy listings, particularly in gated communities, where privacy and security are now part of the lifestyle package.
Two laundry rooms on separate levels
The home includes two laundry rooms, one on the first level and one on the second.
That sounds basic until you live in a multi-level house of this size. Two laundry rooms instantly makes a big home more functional and cuts down on daily friction.
Five balconies positioned to take in panoramic golf views
Balconies are a big deal in a house like this because they’re not just decorative, they multiply how the home functions.
The listing notes five expansive balconies, positioned to capture wide golf course vistas. That suggests the home was designed so multiple rooms can claim outdoor space, not just one “main” terrace that everyone fights over.
In-ceiling audio across the home and patio
For entertaining, the listing highlights in-ceiling audio throughout the home and patio.
That matters because the house is clearly built to flow outdoors. If the patio is part of the main living experience, sound becomes part of the design too.
A 4-car garage plus a dedicated golf cart bay
The garage situation is exactly what you’d expect on a top-tier golf estate.
The property includes a 4-car garage plus a dedicated golf cart bay, which makes daily life in a golf community much more seamless. In these neighborhoods, golf carts aren’t a novelty; they’re transportation.
A full-house generator, enterprise-grade WiFi, and smart shading throughout
The listing also calls out a full-house generator, a detail that’s especially relevant in Florida. It’s one of those features buyers care about deeply, even if it’s not “glamorous.” In an $18M home, infrastructure matters, and a generator is one of the quickest ways to show the home is prepared.
The tech package also includes Araknis enterprise-grade WiFi and Lutron motorized shades and drapes.
That’s a detail that will resonate with a lot of buyers because in houses this large, bad WiFi can genuinely ruin the experience. Enterprise-grade coverage suggests the home was designed to function smoothly in every room—not just near the router.
A Boca trophy listing built around views, volume, and function
At the end of the day, this listing is selling something very specific: a modern Boca Raton mansion that delivers drama, comfort, and functionality without feeling like a fragile showpiece.
It’s big, it’s bold, and it’s extremely entertaining-friendly — but it’s also loaded with infrastructure and thoughtful features that make it realistic to actually live in. And that fairway lot ties it all together, turning the view into the home’s most permanent luxury feature.
