A crisp white composition of louvered screens and cantilevered glass volumes wraps a teak deck and a full-length lap pool framed by mature palms.
Golden Beach is the rarest kind of Miami address: a town of roughly 350 homes, no commercial building of any kind, and a mile of private oceanfront insulated from the traffic of the barrier island to its south. This house, designed by its architect owner, sits directly on the sand — a restrained, horizontal composition that treats the Atlantic as its only real facade.
The material palette is deliberately spare: board-marked concrete carrying the grain of its formwork, warm teak at the soffits and screens, and floors of large-format limestone that continue from the interior onto the beach terrace. Full-height sliders along the ocean face disappear into pockets, and deep overhangs manage the Florida sun without darkening the rooms.
Indoor and Out
The ground floor is organized as a single indoor-outdoor sequence: living and dining flow to a covered loggia, a summer kitchen, and a lap pool set parallel to the shoreline. A hundred feet of private ocean frontage give the property a beach that feels wholly its own — a rarity even in Golden Beach.
Five bedrooms occupy the upper floor, the primary suite spanning the ocean face with a private terrace, dual dressing rooms, and a bath finished in a single stone. A gym, media room, and elevator complete the plan, and the flat roof is prepped as a terrace with unobstructed ocean and Intracoastal views.
Twenty minutes from both Miami Beach and Aventura yet governed as its own quiet municipality, Golden Beach trades infrequently. The villa is offered at $9,750,000 through the listing agent.
