Situated along the New River in Fort Lauderdale, the home at 1300 Brickell Drive spans 8,488 square feet and features six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, three half-baths, a movie theater and an orchid garden.
The estate, in the Colee Hammock neighborhood, is reminiscent of a Tuscan villa. The expansive keystone courtyard and manicured grounds are punctuated by an impressive oak tree and three ladies bronze fountain.
Personal touches are noticeable throughout the property. Beautiful oak woodwork is prominent in several rooms, giving the home a polished feel. A stained glass mural highlights one of the bathroom walls, and gold and crystal knobs and fixtures are sprinkled throughout the estate.
The theater room boasts three TVs – one 90-inch and two 42-inch screens. The setting sits eight people in a mixture of theater seating and reclining beds.
Adding to the comforts are the club/game room, which is equipped with an onyx bar, a gas fireplace and a computerized sound system.
The master bedroom suite features more than the typical oversized bed and separate closets.
A temperature-controlled wine room, gym/office space, two dressing rooms, gas fireplace and large bay windows with a view of the water are just steps away.
The large bathtub in the master stands out because of its size and elegance. An infinity tub with Jacuzzi is encased in marble and a gold faucet completes the look.
Backyard features include a covered loggia, summer kitchen with built-in grill and gazebo bar, heated salt water pool, spa and separate hot tub.
The home, which has 384 feet of water frontage, comes with a boat lift and a concrete dock.
Tim Elmes of Coldwell Banker is the listing agent. The home was originally listed for $11.1 million in September of 2016, according to the Coldwell Banker website. The home has since been reduced to $10 million.
