Mansion for sale
The 10,684-square-foot estate in Coconut Grove is priced at $8.8 million.
COCONUT GROVE — Built as a spec home and completed about four months ago, the modern mansion is on one of Miami’s prestigious streets and is priced and ready to sell at $8.8 million.
The 10,684 square-foot estate, at 1641 S. Bayshore Drive in Coconut Grove, encompasses six bedrooms, nine bathrooms, office, family room and Florida room.
The home was built 22 feet above sea level, making it one of the highest elevations in Miami, according to Karen Elmir, CEO and founder of The Elmir Group under Cevera Real Estate. She is also the listing agent.
Visitors enter the mansion via rectangular steps that appear to float atop a koi pond. A large, bright blue front door swivels open for a different entry experience.
The living room boasts floor-toceiling front windows and 24-foot tall ceilings. The back wall of the room is comprised of sliding glass doors that open to the backyard, blurring the lines of indoor and outdoor living.
The kitchen, built with a sleek and sophisticated design, has an island with stainless steel countertops and a wooden table-top seating area. Mechanical kitchen cabinets open and close at the touch of a button.
Marble and wood flooring are featured throughout the home and an elevator gives residents direct access to the home from a six-car garage. An infinity pool and summer kitchen with a built-in grill complete the 30,375-square-foot lot.
The master bathroom is home to an enormous teak wood shower/ tub combo area with enough room for one person to enjoy the rainfall shower and another to utilize the bath tub.
The estate was built by Terras Developers. Edgar Kamal is the home’s architect; the interior design was done by Lorena Gomez. It was furnished by Artefacto.
“Bayshore Drive is one of the most prestigious streets in Miami,” Elmir said. “This is the only house currently on the market that is this size, on this large of a lot and at this price.”
