EXCLUSIVE: Dazzling Wellness Retreat Built Around 125-Year-Old Olive Tree Hits the Market in Boca Raton for $11.5 Million

A newly constructed mansion in Boca Raton, Florida, known as Villa Amalfi, has been listed for $11.5 million, distinguishing itself with a central 125-year-old olive tree imported from California. This mature tree, valued at $20,000, is a focal point, situated within a reflective pool in a glass-enclosed atrium at the heart of the 11,186-square-foot property. The design, influenced by Balinese architecture, aims to create a wellness retreat, integrating nature into the living space. The residence features a floating staircase, an interior zen garden, and floor-to-ceiling glass walls designed to maximize natural light and a sense of openness. Listing agent Senada Adzem of Douglas Elliman highlighted the property's rare serenity, particularly within the South Florida luxury market, and noted a broader trend of buyers seeking tranquility over ostentatious amenities.
