174 Carica Rd introduces a new era of sophistication, security, and self-sufficiency to Pine Ridge—a modern coastal compound unlike anything ever built in this coveted community. Designed for complete independence, this fully fortified, off-grid residence offers a lifestyle of privacy and peace of mind. Behind private gates—featuring both a main and private entrance—and a fully fenced perimeter, state-of-the-art security and surveillance systems combine with solid concrete construction, impact-rated doors and windows, hurricane fortified trusses, and a lightning suppression system for unmatched protection. The home’s standing seam metal roof with Kynar finish ensures decades of reliability and beauty, while solar power, battery backup, and a whole-house generator provide complete energy independence. Both city and deep well water systems, each connected to whole-house reverse osmosis filtration, offer seamless redundancy. Filtered irrigation water eliminates scaling and iron deposits. A grand front entry with a dramatic glass pivot door and tranquil water feature sets the tone for what lies beyond. Inside, open living spaces, a chef’s kitchen and fully equipped butler’s kitchen, high-end A/V systems throughout, and custom, one-of-a-kind millwork in every space define livable luxury. The formal dining room opens to the outdoors through a folding nano door with roll-down bug screen. The owner’s retreat features dual dressing rooms and a spa bath with a custom folding nano door leads to a private outdoor shower and garden. A private lounge offers an intimate space for relaxation or entertainment. The second-floor private office with an expansive glass wall overlooking the car collection below doubles as a gym, creating a multifunctional wellness and work environment. Three laundry areas and fully automated motorized shades throughout add effortless convenience. Outdoors, resort-style living unfolds with multiple lanais, fire and water features, and a shimmering pool and spa enhanced by Pentair Intellivibe lighting that syncs color changes to music. Coastal Source outdoor speakers deliver premium sound for entertaining, while extensive landscaping and lighting highlight a curated collection of palms, shrubs, and fruit trees that provide beauty and harvest year-round. A self-contained guest house, seamlessly integrated into the design, provides independent living for family or guests. Architecture by MHK, built by Bonura Custom Homes, interiors by Clive Daniel Home, and developed by investment group, Spartan Management Group of Naples—this residence is an entertainer’s dream, a private sanctuary, and essentially a modern hurricane shelter, setting a new benchmark for Pine Ridge. And while this description captures the essence of 174 Carica Rd, there are simply too many remarkable and unique features to list—each a testament to thoughtful design, craftsmanship, and innovation.
