Stunning Olympia Estate Brings Palm Beach Aesthetic To Wellington Story by Lauren MirĂł Photos courtesy Jacqueline and Paul Morris
This stunning home is reminiscent of a Palm Beach mansion right here in Wellington. Located in the Olympia community, the four-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bathroom home features more than 4,000 square feet of living space, all impeccably decorated. It has a large office with a built-in desk and bookshelves, as well as a second-story retreat complete with a home movie theater and billiard room. The outdoor space has a covered patio as well as a raised pergola spa. The home is rife with unique mill work and architectural details — pieces of superior craftsmanship that add to the Old World aesthetic.
