Found in the coveted stretch of Palm Beach known as Billionaires Row, “Begin the Beguine”, a nearly one-acre property, showcases a garden inspired by European formal gardens and a revitalized Regency-style home. Get exclusive access to this exceptional landscape and hear the story about this project’s creation from the landscape architect Fernando Wong of Fernando Wong Outdoor Living Design.
The house was originally built in 1986, then left gutted and abandoned for years. Tasked with restoring its former charm, Fernando Wong Outdoor Living Design collaborated with Bories & Shearron Architecture and interior designers Miles Redd and David Kaihoi to deliver a seamless blend of Jazz Age elegance and modern luxury.
The landscape was built around two banyan trees and includes an oval pool and a European-style runnel water feature. The driveway’s Greek-key boarder and classical hardscape design enhance the estate’s formal aesthetic. Lush plantings, including podocarpus, jasmine, and bougainvillea, are found throughout the property. This use of rich greens and subtle blues creates a serene oasis reflecting the clients’ vision.
