Right in Miami Beach but across the water from tourist-y spots, an exuberant house is listed for $8.5 million. Vibrant, cheerful, and colorful, it’s a residence that perfectly marries fun modern amenities with timeless charm.
The home’s exterior is reminiscent of arriving at the Beverly Hills Hotel, outfitted in bright pink and green. Color doesn’t just reign on the outer shell, though. An eclectic yet refined display of hues and patterns continues throughout the 6,828-square-foot abode. Built in 1928, the Mediterranean Revival was restored by Ximena Caminos, the former partner of Alan Faena.
The living room and kitchen are more muted and breezy in their white palettes, anchored around a striking white fireplace and futuristic chandeliers. Other prime spaces hold their own personalities in the form of different wallpapers, from swans on a green backdrop in the dining room to fierce red tigers in the study.
When it’s time to relax, there are tons of places to unwind. Holding a total of nine bedrooms and eight and a half bathrooms, there’s a room for each type of character. The primary suite is the ultimate glam spot. Start your night getting ready in the ensuite with a steam room and then move to the vanity, which is then followed by a buyer’s dream walk-in closet.
For enjoying the Miami sun, lush grounds await with a custom pool and built-in chaise lounges. Colorful outdoor furniture sets the scene for al fresco entertaining, while a rooftop terrace offers a setting for elevated lounging. Liz Hogan and Nancy Batchelor of Compass have brought the happy home to the 33140 market.
