Turnkey Waterfront Estate in Naples Lists at $12.7 Million With Resort Pool and Gulf Access
An Architectural Masterpiece Steps from the Sand
In the heart of Vanderbilt Beach, one of the most prestigious waterfront communities in Florida, 141 Channel Dr emerges as a crown jewel in Naples real estate. Listed at $12.7 million, this newly constructed residence delivers an exceptional blend of design, location, and lifestyle – crafted by Diamond Custom Homes, envisioned by Stofft Cooney Architects, and brought to life with interiors by EDGE.
Completed in 2025, this Naples home for sale spans 5,497 square feet of air-conditioned living space within a 9,676-square-foot structure, resting on a 9,583-square-foot canalfront lot. The home is fully furnished and move-in ready, offering a rare combination of elegance and functionality, ideal for discerning buyers seeking both investment and inspiration.
A Transformative History Anchored in Growth
The journey of 141 Channel Dr is a reflection of Naples‘ upward real estate trajectory. Records show the property sold for $1.725 million in 2020, before being listed again in 2022 at $4 million, and later withdrawn at $4.4 million. Following a visionary redevelopment, the estate re-entered the market in early 2025, commanding its current $12.7 million price tag – a testament to the exceptional transformation and the value of location, architecture, and luxury living.
“This property has undergone a complete metamorphosis. It’s no longer just a home – it’s a statement of refined waterfront living,” said Ryan Schwartz, listing agent at Naples Homes, in an interview with Luxury Houses Magazine.
Design That Balances Grandeur and Intimacy
From the moment you enter, the dramatic stone stair tower and 12-foot beamed ceilings set the tone for a residence defined by subtle opulence. Rich, naturally-stained wood floors flow through the grand living spaces, accented by custom millwork and a bespoke range hood that anchors the open kitchen. Every design decision reflects a curated approach – from the ornate shelving to the use of marble, tile, and wood throughout.
The home features five spacious bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms. Additional living spaces include a den that functions as a private retreat, a family room perfect for casual evenings, a state-of-the-art media room, and a sunlit home office. There’s also a bar with built-in wine storage and a discreet club room that caters to entertainment.
“EDGE’s interior vision captures a relaxed yet elevated coastal atmosphere,” Michael Diamond, president of Diamond Custom Homes, told Luxury Houses. “The materials, colors, and textures all echo the calm elegance of waterfront living.” Impact-resistant doors and windows enhance safety without compromising views. Modern systems include central air and gas heat, a tankless water heater, and a generator- ensuring the home is as functional as it is beautiful making it stands out in Florida estates.

A Resort-Like Outdoor Experience
Step outside, and the home transitions effortlessly into an outdoor sanctuary. The resort-style pool and in-ground spa, surrounded by natural stone and lounge areas, make the backyard feel like a private beach resort. A summer kitchen with built-in grill and fire pit invites alfresco dining and entertaining, while a third-level balcony off the primary suite delivers sweeping canal views.
The canal-front location is not just scenic – it’s practical. Homeowners enjoy a private dock with direct Gulf access, meaning you can dock your boat in the backyard and walk to the beach within minutes. “This is one of the few home in Naples for sale where you truly get it all: water access, walkability, and privacy,” Schwartz added in his conversation with Luxury Houses. “It’s a rare trifecta in high-end coastal real estate.”

Luxury Houses Magazine attempted to reach the property owner for comments regarding the transformation process, but no official response was received. However, according to agent insights, the current owner is a prominent investor with global interests who envisioned the home as a legacy project.
