Completed in 2026, this architectural residence occupies a coveted position in Cliff Haven, one of Newport Heights most tightly held enclaves. Masterfully conceived by Ali Zonouz of Nine Square Studio, a 2026 Wonder Global Design Award recipient, the home reflects his signature balance of sculptural architecture and effortless livability, from its commanding entry to a seamless dialogue between indoors and out. Approximately 6,497 square feet unfold across five bedrooms and 6.5 baths, complemented by a pool house offering a functional kitchen and full bath. A soaring two-story foyer, framed by statement doors and a temperature-controlled wine display, sets a gallery-like tone. The great room, centered on a fireplace and wet bar, dissolves through walls of glass into a private backyard retreat featuring a pool with AKVO Spiralift technology, allowing the pool to disappear completely in just minutes to expand your outdoor entertaining space. The chefs kitchen is equally considered, with a cantilevered seating island, a dedicated prep island, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, and a discreet catering kitchen for entertaining at scale. An elevator and a dramatic staircase both ascend to the upper level, where the primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering a private outdoor terrace, his-and-hers vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and a bespoke dressing room. Each secondary bedroom is en suite with custom closet systems, while an upstairs lounge with built-in bar, refrigerator, and coffee station provides an inviting retreat for media or gathering.
