In a quiet corner of Naples’ prestigious Royal Harbor, where palm fronds sway in salt-filtered breezes and light ripples across the canal like brushed silk, 1955 Tarpon Road rises with the assured calm of a home that understands both its setting and its purpose. It is not loud in its luxury—but it is unmistakable.
Set on an oversized canal-front parcel with a new seawall, dock, and 16,000-pound lift, the home is a study in understated elegance and meticulous reimagination. Taken down to the studs and thoughtfully rebuilt, the residence now presents 3,000 square feet of living space infused with refined European influences and Florida’s indoor-outdoor rhythm.
The approach is quietly cinematic: through a clean-lined façade and into a gracious foyer, where the eye is drawn immediately to a wall of disappearing glass. From here, the home opens—an embrace of volume, texture, and light. The floors are a story unto themselves: 10-inch wide-plank white oak, sourced in France, laid in long lengths that stretch without interruption beneath coffered ceilings. The effect is both grounding and ethereal
The living room is anchored by a custom contemporary linear fireplace, framed in warm wood accents that feel architectural rather than ornamental. The room spills naturally into the kitchen—arguably the home’s true showpiece—not by flash, but by proportion and finish. A Thermador 6-burner gas range, Gaggenau double refrigerator and freezer towers, and oversized quartzite island invite both culinary exploration and conviviality. Brass fittings offer just the right measure of contrast against rift-sawn white oak cabinetry, their finish catching the sunlight in quiet intervals.
In the adjacent sitting area, views of the water feel immediate and intimate. This is Naples living as it’s meant to be—casual in spirit, considered in execution.
The primary suite carries the narrative forward: a serene retreat of layered neutrals, subtle moldings, and natural light, with zero-corner sliders that lead to the poolside terrace. The bathroom echoes the home’s tonal restraint—freestanding soaking tub, expansive walk-in shower, and bespoke cabinetry composed in symmetry and stone. A walk-in closet with custom built-ins completes the suite, adding both elegance and efficiency.
Two guest suites continue the story of thoughtful design, each with their own sense of calm and comfort. A fourth bedroom, set behind newly installed leaded glass doors, offers flexibility as a den, home office, or additional guest quarters. These spaces are unified by a stylish powder room for visitors and a convenient laundry room that maintains the home’s aesthetic integrity.
The home’s two-car garage—with epoxy floors and integrated storage—is quietly utilitarian, while an elevated slab at 10.66 feet offers rare peace of mind. Notably, the home remained untouched by Hurricane Ian—an invisible but invaluable asset that speaks volumes.
Yet it is the outdoor living that transforms this residence into something of a private resort: a saltwater pool and spa, sculptural hardscaping, multiple lounging zones, and a gazebo-inspired summer kitchen with a Wolf grill, TV, and integrated lighting. Architectural landscape lighting plays across native plantings and newly sculpted beds, heightening the drama after dark.
Positioned just minutes from Old Naples and the Gulf of Mexico by both land and water, this exceptional home manages to do what few properties can: offer serenity without seclusion, and elegance without pretense. It’s a home that lives quietly—and luxuriously— by design.
1955 Tarpon Road, Naples, Florida 34102 is offered at $5,895,000.
