Sitting atop an acre of land, this 12,000-square-foot, ultra contemporary residence “South of the Highway” shatters the meaning of the word “barn.”

Just a short stroll away from the ocean, the eight-bedroom,10-bath glass-encased home touts a fresh vibe salted with nautical accents, and is drenched in natural sunlight.

Among the airy abode’s noteworthy features is a gourmet kitchen outfitted with a built-in banquette and breakfast bar, embellished with mosaic tiles.

Flavored with just a touch of whimsy, the brand new house comes with a master suite complete with a luxuriant bath and glass sitting space—not to mention three fireplaces; a home theater; a billiards room; a two-bedroom guest suite; a fitness studio; a three-car garage; a wine cellar; and a sprawling deck, ideal for entertaining a myriad of guests.

Currently asking $16,000,000, the bright listing also showcases a sitting room and an office with sliding doors that open to its grounds, plus a sizable great room with a wall of windows overlooking a slate patio, a heated gunite pool and spa, and a matching pool house.
