SEA ISLAND, Ga. — A $40 million home nestled on the coastline of Sea Island, Georgia, is making headlines with its breathtaking design. 

The home has seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and a "serene panorama," but that's not its most mesmerizing feature. 

Famous architect John Portman designed the home and lived in it; he also designed The Westin Peachtree Plaza and the Atlanta Marriott Marquis Hotel. 

It's on E 26th Street in Sea Island with a view of the Atlantic Ocean from every room.

Chase Mizel, the Atlanta Fine Homes realtor who is selling the home, said in his description, "This residence transcends the conventional, standing as a harmonious interplay between architectural form and the natural grandeur of its oceanfront setting."

The home is 12,586 square feet on a 2.32-acre lot. 

It also has a private guest cottage that has four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms and 3,432 square feet, which is not included in the main residence. 

The realtor continued describing the home, "This is not merely a home; it is a sanctuary of enlightened living."

Mizel added that the home has an "Entelchy" concept, which means realizing potential. 

The three-story home, built in 1986, also includes a heated pool, elevator and more.
