This home in Montverde, Florida is a new model but is set apart from the usual Florida Mediterranean by its Moroccan touches. It is a Carmen Dominguez model which was featured in the 2006 'Street of Dreams.' Spectacular notes include the cascading fountains and pools which all have a unique stepped look and light up in different colors at night. There is a large summer kitchen, courtyard, media room and five bedrooms total. The guest suite appears to be a theme room with a round bed on a tiled dais and a matching round bathtub. The swooping arches, heavy draperies and flourished fireplaces combine to make a home that is sumptuous but skirts the line into becoming a theme park of Arabian style luxury. It is listed at $7.9 million but looks to originally have been on the market for $8.5 million.
