This isn’t my first Terra Bella estate of the day and might not be my favorite (the California Terra Bella from last year has my heart) but it’s still rather charming. This Terra Bella is located in the gated community of Indian River Shores in Vero Beach, FLorida. It has approximately 125 ft. ocean frontage on 1.25 acres. The six-bedroom home is your standard Florida Mediterranean but it has a lot more grace than some of the newer homes I’ve seen in the area. The use of dark wood, tile and arches gives it more of a classic Californian look and I’m always a sucker for a house with circular space. The property includes a separate guest quarters with a living room, circular dining room, kitchenette, and balcony over the three car garage which has mahogany garage doors, cobblestone pavers in the auto court and an adjacent circular wine room with a computerized inventory control system. The outdoor space includes a pool surrounded by grass and tiles which doesn’t offer much space to lounge around but perhaps that’s what the nearby ocean is for. This home is listed at $8.75 million.
