Miami ’s many luxury residential towers and branded residences might comprise much of the city’s ever-growing skyline, but not everyone wants to live in a high-rise building. For those seeking a palatial pad on a private, tree-lined parcel that lets them keep their feet planted on the ground, look no further than this $15.9 million home in Bal Harbour .
Bal Harbour village sits at the northern tip of Miami Beach and is best known for its famous Bal Harbour Shops and its ultra-luxe homes. And this swanky, travertine-clad residence is no exception. The 6,700-square-foot home has seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms, plus two more powder rooms.
It’s situated on just under half an acre of land, but is ensconced by lush tropical foliage and manicured lawns. The home was designed by Sanchez + Coleman Studios , founded by the former fashion designer and Project Runway Latin America judge Angel Sanchez and his design partner Chris Coleman. Sanchez, a lifelong creative, has designed couture outfits for Beyoncé, Sandra Bullock, Taylor Swift, and Meryl Streep, among others, but has expanded his career from fashion design into interior design.
Though contemporary in design, the bold, boxy home has warm and sumptuous interiors with rich textures and natural materials, like marble, travertine, suede, and oak. Upon entering the home into the grand salon, you’re met with soaring 22-foot-high ceilings, oak-paneled walls, custom drapery, sculptural chandeliers, and a double-height wall.
