Designed by award-winning architects Choeff Levy Fischman, the opulent 19 Palm Avenue on Miami Beach’s Palm Island has listed for $23,500,000. The 9,600 SF residence leaves you in awe the moment you step onto its lavish motor court, boasting a colossal cascading water feature and British-made automobile rotating turntable. The private driveway also includes an outdoor stairway and a three-car garage with lift capacity concealed by rich Timura wood.
The two-story 6 bedroom 7.5 bath estate, designed in the architect's famed Tropical Modern architectural style, provides large living spaces in an open-concept format. The home features floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that open up to the rear deck, blending the indoors with the outdoors.
The residence's first floor is designed to offer a seamless transition from room to room. A custom Italian-made wall panel conceals a built-in television and grand wood louvers subtly denote the living room entrance. A floor-to-ceiling gas fireplace with bespoke brass paneling and LED light allows for privacy between the dining room and the central $500,000 gourmet kitchen by Fendi with chocolate lacquer floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and champagne leather paneling. The primary wing also features a separate entertainment lounge with a and luxurious black and gold paneled bar for elegant evenings. The home's second level also includes an atrium-facing pajama lounge where the family can relax in a private setting away from the traffic of the ground level.A focal point of the home's interior is a stunning 460 SF open-air atrium with floating steps that take you across a shallow pool of water. Additional soul-soothing reflecting ponds and cascading water features are spread throughout the property on all four sides of the residence to emphasize its waterfront location.
Outside, the home's infinity-edge pool is accentuated by a sleek three-sided Lautner knife-edge deck creating a visually seamless plane of water without any distinction of a pool wall. The fourth side creates the illusion that the edge vanishes into the bay. Adjacent to the pool, the architects incorporated a sunken living room element with custom seating that surrounds a fire pit on three sides. The home's outdoor deck incorporates a shaded cabana with separate bath, dining, bar, and kitchen with a spiral staircase that leads up to a rooftop lounge ideal for sunbathing.
