Everyone has certain expectations of what their dream house should be like, and mine is a luxury villa. In my mind, a beautiful and spectacular villa with a limpid swimming pool set in a natural environment surrounded by some coconut trees and a huge garden with colorful flowers is just what I am looking for. In addition, my luxury villa would have five floors of which each floor would be designed uniquely and connected by an elevator . For instance, the first floor would house the living room and kitchen. Finally, each room would be decorated with pretty paintings and gorgeous ornaments according to my taste. I hope my dream of owning such a luxury villa becomes a reality.
A statement of timeless grandeur, Corinthian Estate stands as one of Brentwood’s most distinguished residences. Inspired by classical European design and crafted with exquisite attention to detail, this 13,730± square-foot masterpiece was built by a premier builder as his personal residence—reflecting a standard of artistry and integrity that few homes achieve. Every element of the estate showcases a devotion to quality, scale, and craftsmanship, while offering endless opportunities to tailor its grand spaces to a more contemporary vision.
Upon entry, guests are welcomed by an ornate Waterford chandelier suspended beneath an elegant domed ceiling, setting a tone of timeless refinement. Rich African granite surfaces, intricate millwork, and Corinthian-style columns define the home’s architectural language—elevating every living and entertaining area. The layout flows effortlessly between formal living and dining rooms, eight fireplaces, and multiple bar and gathering areas, creating a seamless balance between warmth and grandeur.
Each of the six en-suite bedrooms exudes luxury and privacy, including a spacious in-law suite and a dedicated maid’s quarters with a private kitchen—ideal for multigenerational living or extended guests. Modern conveniences abound, with two central vacuum systems, a circulating hot water system, a 12-camera security system, and an elevator providing effortless access to every level.
Designed for both comfort and spectacle, Corinthian Estate also features a private theater room, exercise room, and a sun-filled solarium overlooking the outdoor entertaining area. Outside, a heated saltwater negative-edge pool, surrounded by custom colonnades and Corinthian columns, serves as the breathtaking focal point of the home—perfectly merging elegance with resort-style relaxation.

Professionally designed spaces have depth and layers to them, each element adding its own touch while perfectly playing off of the others. One of the tricks for putting together such a complex yet cohesive space is all about the mix of materials. “Matte and shiny, textured and flat, patterned and plain: These contrasts make a space feel more dynamic,” said Colleen Simonds, a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based interior designer.
Spice of life
Forgetting to consider the range of materials throughout a room can have unintended, but décor-devastating, consequences.
“When you have a space that doesn’t have the mix it can feel one-dimensional, flat and overall uninspired,” Ms. Simonds said. “You just feel bored.”
Using too much of the same good thing can also make a room appear a bit fake, like a carbon copy of page in a one-note design catalog: Think stark industrial, blindingly shiny contemporary, cabin in the woods, midcentury modern overload.
