The 12-story luxury residential tower located at 41 SE 4th Street in the heart of Downtown Boca Raton marks the latest expansion of the Mr. C brand, known for its refined European-inspired lifestyle residential experience, timeless design, and world-class service. The development represents Boca Raton’s first newly announced branded residential project in more than a decade, introducing a thoughtfully scaled, hospitality-driven residential experience to one of South Florida’s most established luxury markets.

Douglas Elliman Development Marketing is leading exclusive sales and marketing for the residences, with prices starting at $1.7 million.

“Boca Raton has long been one of South Florida’s premier luxury markets, supported by sustained investment and deep buyer demand that continues to draw national attention,” said Inigo Ardid, Co-President of Key International. “Buyers here take a long view, and the city attracts capital that supports thoughtful, high-quality development. Mr. C Residences Boca Raton is designed for this moment, offering a hospitality-driven residential experience that elevates daily life. We’re pleased to partner with Mr. C on a project that speaks to how Boca’s luxury buyer lives today, and the level of quality the market will continue to demand.”

Mr. C Residences Boca Raton will feature 133 private residences with two- to three-bedroom layouts. Residences will feature open kitchens designed in Mr. C’s signature style, with custom Italian cabinetry, natural stone countertops, and premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, as well as floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive balconies with glass railings.

Designed by Arquitectonica with interiors by 1508 London, the project offers a contemporary interpretation of classic European living. The arrival experience begins with a lushly landscaped porte cochère and a signature water feature, leading into a grand residential lobby lounge with curated artwork and seating areas. On the exterior, the tower’s sleek architectural profile is defined by expansive terraces and floor-to-ceiling windows, delivering light-filled interiors and uninterrupted views from every residence.

“We’re excited to work alongside Key International and to partner with Mr. C on a project with this level of quality and authenticity,” said Philip Braunstein of Wexford Real Estate. “What stood out was the opportunity to bring a truly elevated standard of living to Boca Raton – one rooted in hospitality, wellness, and thoughtful service. Mr. C approaches residential living with a genuine hospitality mindset, and that’s reflected in the details that shape how residents will experience their home every day.”

The property’s rooftop resort deck features an infinity pool with panoramic views, private cabanas, an open-air cinema, outdoor grill and dining areas, and lounge spaces. Additional amenities include a residents’ social lounge with billiards and card tables, a golf simulator, Little C’s playroom, a mail and package room, and EV charging stations.

Wellness is a defining pillar of the project, integrated into the building’s design throughout, with a dedicated wellness and amenity level featuring a signature spa with hammam, infrared sauna, steam room, sound dome, fitness center featuring Technogym equipment, yoga studio, meditation lawn, lap pool, hot and cold plunge pools, and private padel and pickleball courts.

“Mr. C was created to offer a contemporary interpretation of the comfort of home, blending timeless tradition with modern innovation through craftsmanship and genuine care,” said Ignazio Cipriani, President of Mr. C Hotels. “My brother and I are proud to expand the Mr. C story to Boca Raton and to extend our family experience through a residential offering that feels refined and elegant. From signature spaces like Bellini Restaurant to the rooftop residents-only Mr. C Bar and Lounge, Mr. C Residences Boca Raton reflects our commitment to creating a lifestyle defined by ease.”

At the heart of the project’s social life is Bellini Restaurant, located on the ground floor, offering refined European dining indoors and on a landscaped terrace. Residents will also enjoy the exclusive rooftop Mr. C Bar and Lounge, along with in-residence dining, event catering, and poolside service. Tailored services include concierge, valet, housekeeping, towel and spa services.

Mr. C Boca Raton will offer the consistency and finish that the Cipriani family demands and that today’s customers expect. We are looking forward to sharing the Mr. C lifestyle, enhanced by privacy, turnkey living, and exceptional Cipriani service. This is a distinctive addition to the market.”

Key International, led by Diego and Inigo Ardid, has teamed up with Sterling Bay, a national real estate development firm known for its pioneering approach to developing award-winning creative offices, as the co-development partner of 848 Brickell, a Class-A creative office and retail tower proposed in Brickell. Sterling Bay joins Key International in developing plans for this project, which, pursuant to zoning approval by Miami-Dade County, will soar 51 stories in the heart of Miami's bustling Financial District.

"We strategically selected Sterling Bay as our co-development partner at 848 Brickell to bring their expertise in creating world-class offices to this exciting new project," said Diego Ardid, Co-President at Key International. "We're confident that their involvement will ensure 848 Brickell represents the next generation of modern workspaces in South Florida."

With a reputation for redefining the workplace experience through innovative design, amenities, and functionality, Sterling Bay consistently delivers creative offices for globally recognized tenants, including Google, McDonald's, Dyson, WPP, Boston Consulting Group, and Greenberg Traurig. The firm's impressive portfolio includes a pipeline of $20 billion in transformative urban campuses that have reimagined entire communities and reshaped how people perceive and engage with office spaces.

Sterling Bay has developed workplace environments for over twenty years, partnering with global architecture and design leaders to create spaces that foster productivity, collaboration, and employee well-being. In 2019, Sterling Bay completed its first Miami office development, 545wyn, which marked Wynwood's first-ever Class-A office building, sparking a boom in Wynwood’s commercial activity, and bringing major tenants to the submarket, including Sony Music, PwC, MIAX, Gensler, and Slalom.

"Miami is the nation's new epicenter for commercial growth, and Brickell sits at the center of the city's business activity - it's arguably the hottest submarket in the country right now for commercial office development, and we're poised to deliver a top-tier office product at a crucial inflection point for the area," said Andy Gloor, CEO at Sterling Bay. "848 Brickell will exceed everyone's expectations for fusing the Miami lifestyle with its workplace needs, and we look forward to working with Key International to deliver on this shared vision."

Once complete, 848 Brickell will offer future tenants an impressive 750,000+ square feet of Class-A office space, accompanied by a curated ground-floor retail space spanning 7,500 square feet and on-site parking facilities accommodating over 1,000 vehicles.

Additionally, the building will follow the principles of LEED and WELL rating systems, focusing on both environmental efficiency and occupant well-being. This commitment to health and wellness can be seen in the residence-like balconies which encourage continuous connection to the outdoors. The 40,000 square-foot amenity level will also feature outdoor meeting spaces and lounges, a best-in-class gym, an outdoor walking path, and two regulation-sized Padel courts.
