Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate, Inc.
Imagine a residential area so exclusive it consists of only 38 homes and is surrounded by the daylight waterfront vistas of Biscayne Bay and enjoys sparkling views of vibrant Miami Beach at night. The guard gated and privately owned Indian Creek Island fits the bill and this palatial seven-bedroom estate is truly a waterfront oasis. With the rolling fairways of the prestigious Indian Creek Golf Club in the front and the lapping 200 feet of waterfront in the rear, the canvas for this 2-acre estate is filled with spectacular views.
As you enter the home, double grand and sweeping staircases encircle the marbled foyer. Two-story windows in the formal living room allow you to take in the views of the resort-style pool and the Intracoastal Waterway. The formal dining room with custom built-ins and mirrored walls is large enough for a large banquet table to sustain entertaining on a grand scale. The gourmet kitchen with black granite countertops and top-of-the-line appliances provides a pleasant space to prepare meals. After dinner your guests may want to relax in the large den adorned with hardwood floors and a full bar or the separate billiard room overlooking the gardens.
The upstairs of this 11,349-square-foot home can be accessed via elevator and contains the lavish master bedroom, complete with a sitting area with entertainment center, a huge walk-in dressing area, and a Roman-style marble bath. Enjoy sipping your morning coffee on your private terrace while gazing across the property’s vast lawns, thoughtful gardens, and gorgeous fountain with a custom lighting system. Outdoor entertaining is made easy with 5,691-square-feet of roofed areas, loggias, and patios, a full, covered summer kitchen, a pool and a private boat dock.
This private haven offers amazing views and an abundance of ways to entertain or relax in the highest level of luxury.

Palm Beach has been attracting affluent sun-seekers seeking out a gracious lifestyle for a long time. And how could you not be drawn to its shores when the exclusive shopping and dining on Worth Avenue and a mass of outdoor sports from world class fishing and sailing to golf, tennis, and polo exist in its locale?
A true gem, this timeless 10,800-square-foot residence features 239 feet of water frontage on the northern end of the property, a boatlift, and enough room to accommodate your largest yacht. You’ll be left speechless by the views of both Singer and Peanut Islands across the inlet, and views of the Atlantic Ocean from the deep-water dock.
A circular winding Chicago brick motor court leads you up to the graceful six-bedroom home. You’ll feel safe inside with hurricane impact glass, electronically operated storm shutters, a whole house generator, Ademco security, and motion detectors. Visitors will be struck by the dramatic water view as they pass through the open foyer. A columned arch opens to the living room and French doors lead out to a bricked loggia. The kitchen includes Irish granite countertops, Wentworth custom cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances.
The second-level master suite is complete with a fireplace, a veranda, his-and-hers master baths, and an adjoining sitting room. Both of the two secondary bedrooms on the level have private baths with French limestone and antique vanities. Ideal for guests or staff, a bedroom, bathroom, and loft can be accessed via a private staircase.
Outside, an ebony-lined pool is positioned between the main residence and Captain’s quarters/guest house located directly on the lake. Your guests will never want to leave this fully equipped cottage with a vaulted tongue and groove mahogany ceiling and French limestone floors. With all this estate has to offer, you’ll probably never want to leave either.
