7,657 square feet on the bay rather than the ocean, and the argument for the quieter of Miami's 2 waterfronts.
The branded residence has become the default way to buy at the top of the Miami market, and the reason is not the branding.
It is that a villa inside a managed development gets hotel infrastructure without hotel neighbours: the staff, the security and the maintenance contract of a St. Regis, attached to a house with its own front door.
This one runs to 7,657 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, on the bay rather than the ocean, which is the quieter and in most weather the more usable of the 2 waterfronts.
At 34,000,000 USD it works out at roughly 4,440 dollars a foot.
Bay Against Ocean
Miami buyers arriving from Europe almost always ask for the ocean and almost always end up on the bay. The ocean gives you the horizon and the wind, and salt on everything you own.
The bay gives you the skyline, the sunset on the right side of the house, and somewhere to keep a boat that you can actually reach.
The villa is offered at 34,000,000 USD through the listing agent.
