With these high-tech theaters, why go out?

- By Robyn A. Friedman Correspond­ent

Planning a Super Bowl party this Sunday? Imagine the experience if your home had a 700-square-foot movie theater complete with ticket window, entrance lobby with cash register, and a state-of-the-art projection system with a 110-inch-wide screen.

These are just some of the features found in the two-story, 19,530-square foot estate known as Villa Sole in Miami Beach, which is currently listed for $29.5 million by The Jills team at Coldwell Banker in Miami Beach.

The home theater has plush velvet seating and a custom starlighti­ng system with twinkling stars in the ceiling. There’s room for 18 people.

“It’s a truly unique theater — an experience,” said Danny Hertzberg, a real estate agent with The Jills. “It’s got the charm of an oldfashion­ed theater, but a high-tech screen and projector.”

The home, at 4701 Pine Tree Drive, has 12 bedrooms, 14 full baths and one half bath. Other special features include a spa/salon and a game room.

Another listing, for a $4.2 million home in Parkland, also has a state-of-the-art theater with a 150-inch screen and the same type of speaker system used in profession­al movie theaters, according to Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

A separate theater lobby features a wet bar, glass candy counter, beverage center, popcorn machine and movie poster cases with background lighting. The theater seats 12.

The 13,003-square-foot home, at 6855 NW 122nd Ave., is listed by

Douglas Elliman’s Chad Carroll and has six bedrooms, 8 1⁄2 baths, a billiards room, gourmet kitchen and grand double staircase.

Boca Raton also has a home listed with a well-equipped theater, at 450 E. Coconut Palm Road. The 19,287-square-foot mansion, listed for $12.995 million by Coldwell Banker Residentia­l Real Estate, has six bedrooms, seven full and three half baths, plus a spa, billiards room and cigar lounge, indoor and outdoor pools, and a wine cellar — everything a football fan could ever want.
