Signature Penthouse at Vita at Grove Isle Furnished by Artefacto Hits the Market for $23.5 Million

A landmark two-level penthouse with private 40’ rooftop pool in the nearly sold-out waterfront development by renowned Miami developer Ugo Colombo of CMC Group has hit the market for $23.5 million listed with Nelson Gonzalez, Senior Vice President and top-producer with over $4 billion in career sales at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices (BHHS) EWM Realty.

SOLE PH‑1 at Vita at Grove Isle (5 Grove Isle Dr., Coconut Grove, Fla.) is offered fully furnished by Artefacto – the internationally acclaimed interior design brand. The residence spans nearly 13,000 square feet of total living space, including 7,000 square feet of interiors and 5,600 square feet of outdoor spaces. Atop it all sits a striking, private 40-foot rooftop pool with uninterrupted vistas of Biscayne Bay and the downtown Miami skyline. With an asking price of $23.5 million, SOLE PH‑1 is the largest and most expansive residence within the boutique island development.

“This penthouse stands apart in Coconut Grove,” said Gonzalez. “It is rare to find a condo with such abundance of private amenities, typically found only in a single-family home. In addition to the private amenities, residents get to enjoy additional amenities and luxuries offered by Vita at Grove Isle, and another layer of security offered by private-island living. For buyers seeking privacy, outdoor living with sweeping views, and immediate access to Miami’s cultural and social hubs, SOLE PH‑1 is truly a standout opportunity.”

The four-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath residence is accessed via a private elevator that opens into a grand foyer, leading to expansive living areas defined by 11-foot ceilings and walls of glass that fully retract to connect the interiors with 13-foot-deep waterfront terraces. Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home features finely appointed Artefacto interiors and premium finishes throughout, including a Molteni kitchen with Miele appliances, frameless Barausse doors, and an integrated Crestron smart home system with Lutron HomeWorks lighting.

The Bayfront primary suite has a spa-inspired, book-matched marble bath and oversized double closets, while three additional guest bedrooms with en-suite baths capture serene water views from the opposite side of the residence. A sculptural spiral staircase ascends to the penthouse’s signature, 97-foot-long rooftop terrace – an elevated entertainment environment featuring the 40-foot pool, a summer kitchen, and multiple lounge areas framed by waterfront panoramas.

“From the outset, Vita at Grove Isle was designed to highlight Coconut Grove’s natural beauty and elegant lifestyle,” said Ugo Colombo, Founder and CEO of CMC Group and developer of Vita. “SOLE PH‑1 elevates that vision, pairing grand-scale indoor-outdoor living with meticulous craftsmanship and a rooftop environment that embraces the surrounding water and skyline.”

The offering arrives as Vita continues to see strong closing momentum following its completion in late 2025. The seven-story, 65-residence building is now nearing sellout, having recently reported nearly $400 million in closings in under 60 days. Average residence prices stand at approximately $8.5 million, with a notable share surpassing $10 million. At the top of the market, Vita has recorded multiple penthouse transactions above $15 million, including several exceeding $20 million, underscoring the project’s position within South Florida’s rapidly expanding super-prime residential landscape.

“Miami – and Coconut Grove, in particular – is firmly on the radar of ultra-high-net-worth buyers,” Gonzalez added. “Today’s top buyers want more than just turnkey interiors or smart technology…they’re looking for outdoor living and waterfront experiences that feel effortless and extraordinary. SOLE PH‑1 delivers on all fronts, combining scale, privacy, and panoramic vistas in a market where homes like this are increasingly hard to find.”

Set on a 20-acre private island, Vita at Grove Isle grants residents exclusive access to the Grove Isle Racquet & Yacht Club, which features eight Har-Tru tennis courts, pickleball and padel courts, along with a bayfront pool and poolside bar. The development will soon welcome La Sponda, an Italian waterfront restaurant opening this summer with views of Biscayne Bay. Additional amenities include private resident event spaces, a spa, fitness center, and yoga studio.

With only a limited collection of residences remaining, SOLE PH-1 represents a singular opportunity to acquire one of the largest and most distinctive penthouses currently available in Coconut Grove – within a development that has quickly emerged as one of the neighborhood’s most sought-after waterfront addresses.

La Gorce Island Estate Known As 'OKTO' With 260' Of Waterfront Sells For Record $75 Million

The lavish La Gorce Island mega-mansion, known as “OKTO” – marked by 260 feet of jaw-dropping waterfrontage – has sold for $75 million. Located on Miami Beach’s exclusive La Gorce Island gated community, the property went under contract just two weeks after it was listed with Nelson Gonzalez, Senior Vice President and top-producer at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices (BHHS) EWM Realty.

Located at 88 La Gorce Circle, the two-story estate – the collaborative vision of revered developer Todd Michael Glaser and architect Carlos Prio-Touzet – garnered the highest price ever paid for a single-family home in the guard-gated island enclave. It is additionally the second-most expensive single-family home sale to date for the City of Miami Beach. Neither the buyer nor seller was disclosed.

“Even among the extraordinary estates of La Gorce Island, OKTO has been a standout, as evidenced by how quickly it went under contract,” said Gonzalez. “The property’s prime and exclusive location, singular design, and monumental size have made it truly unique, and we knew how to effectively market those attributes to the most discerning buyers.”

The contemporary, resort-style retreat features nine bedrooms, 12 and three half-baths and wide views of the Bay and Intracoastal Waterway. Well-sited on a verdant, 1.1-acre lot (48,027 square feet), the residence is also known as one of the community’s largest single-family offerings.

In addition to a grand entrance that opens to a 100-foot-long living room with soaring ceilings, distinct architectural details throughout the mansion include a Guggenheim-inspired staircase, fine finishes, spectacular custom lighting, and floor-to-ceiling walls of glass. A chef’s kitchen, formal dining room, and gym complete the first floor, while an entertainment room, opulent primary suite with a sprawling closet and deluxe bath, and a wide terrace are well-appointed on the second level. Additional amenities include an elevator, two stately docks, a 100-foot pool overlooking the water, and a rooftop space for year-round entertaining and respite. There is also a guesthouse, five-car garage, and a two-bedroom staff quarters.

“It was a privilege to have facilitated this record transaction in only two weeks,” continued Nelson Gonzalez. “In 2021, we listed the property at $38.5 million and received two offers quickly, but the seller wasn’t ready to sell, so we took it off the market. Now, just four years later, we’ve sold it -- impressively for double that price. It is a true testament to the growth of the market and sustained strong demand for unique, ultra-luxury properties in Miami Beach. That plus our proven track record for successfully implementing strategic launches and hyper-targeted marketing of residences of this caliber continue to result in win-wins for buyers and sellers.”

The La Gorce Island enclave – marked by towering Royal Palms at its entrance and magnificent water views – is one of the most sought-after gated communities in the area. It has long been a haven for high-profile celebrities, including such famed past residents as Cher and Billy Joel. The enclave is minutes from the renowned La Gorce Country Club and golf course, Lincoln Road, Bal Harbour Shops, and is approximately 20 minutes from Miami International Airport. It is also well-protected by 24-hour roving security, including a patrol boat that circles the island each night.

Pair of Neighboring Estates On Miami Beach's Iconic North Bay Road Close For $30 Million

A pair of adjacent estates on Miami Beach’s North Bay Road, internationally known as “Millionaire’s Row,” have traded for $30 million. The North Bay Road properties, purchased by billionaire Richard Saghian, are directly across the street from one another and include a contemporary waterfront mansion and a lush Mediterranean villa.

5718 North Bay Road, which has 75 feet of frontage on Biscayne Bay, and 5725 North Bay Road, which is directly across the street, inland, sold to billionaire Richard Saghian, best known as the founder and CEO of fast-fashion company Fashion Nova. Saghian, who has an impressive collection of trophy homes, will continue to live full-time in Los Angeles, but plans to enjoy both Miami Beach residences as a vacation retreat. Saghian worked with Maurice Boschetti of Boschetti Realty Group, LLC.

The seller, Ami Shashoua, who owned both properties, worked with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices (BHHS) EWM Realty’s Nelson Gonzalez. Shashoua’s successful career has involved work with financial institutions and tech companies, as well as real estate development and sales.

“Our tropical, tax-friendly market and rapidly growing economy continue to be a hotbed of activity…with these spacious, waterfront enclaves, in particular, being repeatedly singled-out by the globe’s one percent,” Gonzalez continued. “This buyer originally looked at this home 10 months ago, but we stayed on top of him. It took him a little while to recognize the opportunity he had to acquire one of the very few available modern mansions in this exclusive enclave.”

“Richard (Saghian) wanted a prime location and the best view of the skyline and open water – which can be a difficult feat,” said Boschetti. “He knew that the chance to own two luxury homes on coveted North Bay Road, taking full advantage of the ultimate Miami Beach lifestyle and views, was an opportunity that couldn’t be overlooked.”

From its tranquil, private setting along Biscayne Bay, the North Bay Road enclave has historically been one of South Florida’s most sought-after. Just this week, David and Victoria Beckham closed on a $72.25 million sale within the community at 4736 North Bay Road. Other high-profile neighbors, past and present, have included Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, Karlie Kloss and Joshua Kushner, and business owners Wayne Boich, Josh Harris, and Marcello Claure.

Each residence in today’s transaction has been a standout in its own right, but together, they have formed the quintessential Miami Beach haven.

Built in 2022, 5718 North Bay Road is marked by a magnificent, 15,536-square-foot lot with 75 feet of premier waterfrontage. Inside, seven bedrooms, eight baths, and two half-baths are spread throughout 7,767 square feet of lavish living space, while walls of glass complement the home’s open, sunlit floorplan. In addition to a wet bar, state-of-the-art theater, an elevator, a gourmet kitchen, wine cellar, interior fishpond with stingrays, gym, and rooftop terrace, the home has a cabana with a summer kitchen, saltwater pool with a spa, and an outstanding, oversized dock. Adding to its unmistakable draw, the dwelling is defined by unobstructed, postcard-worthy views of Biscayne Bay and dazzling sunsets over Miami’s skyline.

Across the street, 5725 North Bay Road is a recently remodeled Mediterranean-style villa with four bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths – punctuated by 3,167 square feet of airy living space. The home’s 8,550-square-foot lot, enveloped in verdant landscaping, is anchored by a sparkling pool and outdoor spaces for breezy alfresco dining and gatherings.

“It’s a combined total of 11 bedrooms, 15 baths, 11,012 square feet of living space, 24,086 square feet of land, and 75 feet of waterfrontage,” Gonzalez concluded. “The uniqueness of this offering cannot be overstated.”

Tour GameStop Short Seller Gabriel Plotkin of Melvin Capital’s $44 Million North Bay Road Mega-Mansion

Melvin Capital’s Gabriel Plotkin has been in the news quite a bit recently after his hedge fund may have posted a loss in the billions in the stock market shorting GameStop. Plotkin made his first splash when he acquired the Choeff Levy Fischman-designed 6360 North Bay Road and 6342 North Bay Road on Miami Beach in November 2020 for $44 million. He then applied to demolish an 80-year-old home on the 6342 North Bay Road site to build a tennis court for the compound.

The residence at 6360 North Bay Road was designed by Choeff Levy Fischman and completed in 2018. The home offers the ultimate in waterfront living and year-round entertainment. eight-bedroom eight-bath main house, a four-bedroom four-bath guesthouse, and a cabana house. The ultra-luxe modern home was designed to blend the outdoors with inside with floor-to-ceiling glass sliding walls.

The 27,608 SF lot features a new 60’ pier dock and seawall with 112’ of waterfrontage.

Melvin Capital suffered serious losses after his short position in GameStop was targeted by members of the Reddit community Wall Street Bets. The group of retail traders pooled together to drive up GameStop’s market price and squeeze out short-sellers. Melvin Capital received a $2.75 billion bailout following the trading fallout from Ken Griffin’s Citadel and Steven Cohen’s Point72. Melvin Capital previously had $13 billion under management.
