Taking cues from fine art galleries, The Hamilton House was designed with clean lines, open living areas, and high ceilings that work in concert to provide a stunning showcase for the collection of original art and neutral furnishings that will also sell separately on auction day.

The story behind this home is as breathtaking as the house itself. Dieter Otten, the homeowner, is a native-born European who owned a pair of art galleries. When it came time to design a vacation home in Palm Beach, he melded his love of art, sailing and travel to create a getaway that is entirely modern and thoroughly livable. Dieter named the home The Hamilton House for one of his favorite travel destinations, Bermuda.

Located on Ibis Isle Road, The Hamilton House has spectacular curb appeal with lush landscaping and circular drive. The modern design, bright interiors and open floor plan create an inspiring oasis for owners and guests, while the two-story atrium and stunning staircase provide an impressive greeting for visitors. White columns give architectural definition to dramatic, open spaces, including an expansive living room, striking dining room and spacious kitchen.

The home was designed with an artist's eye for attention to detail and views. Interior gallery lighting and hangers provide the perfect canvas to showcase art. Abundant natural lighting spills through French doors that align the first floor space, offering views to the beautiful pool, fountains and tropical landscaping. A 20x20 second-floor sundeck provides an opportunity to relax and enjoy an unobstructed view of the intercoastal waterway.

The four-bedroom, 3.5 bath home features twin master suites, located on the second floor, each with spacious master baths and closets. A loft area opens to a pool balcony to make a perfect library or second living area. Back on the first floor, travel a short hallway to find a guest bedroom, second bedroom/office, bath with shower and laundry room, offering privacy from the main living area. A powder room is also conveniently located just off the entry and main living areas.

The sprawling, beautifully manicured exterior provides a great escape for a sun-drenched afternoon, including a lap pool surrounded by lush hedging and perimeter fencing for ultimate privacy. Or choose to sit back and relax on the large loggia, surrounded by tropical gardens, including palm and coconut trees. This magnificent home offers Palm Beach living at its finest.
