Amazing Luxury Beachfront Seaside Home, Incredible Gulf Views - Rossi House.

2 Kings, 2 Queens - Sleeps 8

The Rossi House, the only home designed by the Pritzker Prize-winning architect in the United States, is in one of the country’s most fascinating planned communities: Seaside, Florida. Aldo Rossi was the greatest neo-rationalist architect of the late 20th century and the Rossi House contribution to Seaside was the last home touched by his brilliance.

While its spacious, lush tropical plantings give it a feeling of peaceful seclusion, this property is on Seaside's western edge, a five-minute stroll to Seaside’s downtown and a short jaunt to the shops and restaurants of Watercolor. Notably, the founders of Seaside, Robert Davis and his wife Daryl were the second family to own the home. The Rossi House has never before been available for rent.

Every detail of the Rossi House has been carefully considered and crafted. Upon entry, take in the beautifully crafted staircase that leads to the main entry floor on the upper level. At the top of the stairs, guests are greeted by a full-sized living room, complete with a sofa, 4 club chairs, and a dining table making the space perfect for cocktail or game night, all while enjoying stunning views of the Gulf. Adjacent to the front living area is a second living space with a vaulted ceiling, causing the kitchen, dining, and two living areas to come together to form a calm, serene Great Room. Floor-to-ceiling windows on the south side overlook the dunes and the sea. The elegant, wood-paneled kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art Miele and Gaggenau appliances, and a breakfast bar with seating for three, an adjacent dining area with seating for ten. Completing the second-floor living space is a private terrace to enjoy morning coffee or afternoon cocktails, overlooking the beautiful Gulf of Mexico.

Also on the second floor is the oversized king primary bedroom with floor-to-ceiling windows and gorgeous gulf views. A writing desk, smart TV, and seating area complete the room. The primary bathroom features artful stone and a 13-jet steam shower.
Below the main level, are two luxurious guest spaces. The first is a king bedroom with modern furnishings, and a 80” Smart TV to enjoy movies or sports. There are two sets of French doors leading to a private porch. This room has a private bathroom with whimsical wave-patterned tile. A second guest room with a matching private bath features two queen beds, built-in storage, large dressers, and a private Smart TV. A full-size washer and dryer are also found on this level.

On the ground level, a large, shaded patio for al fresco cooking and dining has a barbecue grill and a new Teak dining table, with seating for 8. Additional outdoor seating, and two comfortable chaise lounges make the adjacent covered patio a perfect place to enjoy a book. An outdoor shower can also be found for guests to comfortably remove the sugar-fine sand from a day at the beach, which is easily accessed via the Natchez Pavilion a few steps away from the Rossi House.
Overlooking the dunes, the Gulf of Mexico, and the town of Seaside, the Rossi House is classic elegance.
