Choeff Levy Fishman Architects-Designed Hibiscus Island Tropical Modern Estate Lists For $37.5 Million

320 S. Hibiscus Drive on the guard-gated enclave of Hibiscus Island in Miami Beach has hit the market for $37.5 million, listed with The Jills Zeder Group. The home includes seven bedrooms and seven-and-one-half bathrooms spread over 7,818 square-feet of living space with 90 feet of prime waterfront along azure Biscayne Bay. 320 S. Hibiscus Drive is a recently completed waterfront spec home in which the land was acquired for $11.6 million before being split into two parcels in October 2018 after the former owners donated the property to Mt. Sinai Medical Center.

Sleek and elegant, the Bayfront estate was designed to evoke an indoor-outdoor oasis by modernist-masters Choeff Levy architects. Pairing the best of tropical-inspired luxury with a contemporary, cosmopolitan lifestyle, 320 S. Hibiscus Drive is ideal as a forever home or exquisite holiday hideaway. Eco-friendly touches like solar panels help solidify the estate’s environmental footprint.

Perched on a meticulously landscaped 15,750 square-foot lot, the home is bathed in soothing natural light streaming throughout from towering floor-to-ceiling glass doors. Distinctive design details abound throughout the estate – from organically-inspired porcelain-tile and natural oak floors to custom-crafted wallpaper and lush, rainforest-like landscaping.

The home’s first floor is ready-made for memorable celebrations and gatherings. Beyond the gated private entrance — which is followed by an entrance waterfall and decorative pools — a sprawling great room effortlessly combines a large family/media center, dining room and open-plan chef-quality kitchen. A 108-bottle wine cabinet and cozy cocktail lounge add a dose of ready-made glamor – all fronted by panoramic water views with direct access to the outdoor infinity-edge pool and landscaped, sun-flooded gardens. The first-floor guest-bedroom/office, staff bedroom and fully-equipped catering kitchen accent the estate’s endless array of amenities, which includes a beautiful wood-paneled elevator.

The second floor is accessed by a show-stopping floating glass-and-wood staircase while the grand premier suite is like a world unto its own. A large sitting area accents this ultra-private oasis, which includes its own terrace and indulgent plunge-pool. A pair of oversized walk-in closets, spa-inspired bath with deep oval soaking tub, must-have midnight bar and double rain shower complete the suite’s resort-like atmosphere.

On the top floor, there are four additional bedrooms – all with en-suite baths, floor-to-ceiling windows, walk-in closets, fully-motorized shades and their own terraces.

The outdoor elements are as exceptional as its indoors and equally suitable for intimate gatherings as well as large-scale events. Tropical landscaping provides a verdant backdrop for an infinity-edge pool and tranquil waterfall – along with a chic porcelain-tile pool deck and sensational summer kitchen complete with grill, ice-maker, refrigerator and sink.

An al fresco dining table effortlessly draws the eye to both Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline further on. On the serene waters just beyond, the large on-site dock is ideal for boaters and anglers — fully equipped for both maximum enjoyment and effortless access to the Atlantic Ocean. And the estate is capped by roof-top solar panels powerful enough to run the entire home by sunlight during the day. A separate fully-air-conditioned two-car garage was built to easily accommodate lifts for an additional pair of vehicles.

320 S. Hibiscus Drive is set on one of Miami’s most exclusive and prestigious islands a short drive from the city’s top commercial, cultural and culinary corridors including South Beach, the Design District, the Wynwood Arts Center and the Miami International Airport. A longtime favorite of leading global business and cultural luminaries, the 24-hour guarded location is only accessible via a small bridge extending from the palm-lined MacArthur Causeway.

FIRST ON PROFILE: The Residences at 1428 Brickell Reveals $60 Million Penthouse Designed By ACPV Architects

1428 Brickell has revealed their ground-breaking $60 million, two-story, fully-finished penthouse crowning The Residences at 1428 Brickell. The penthouse residence encompasses over 12,000 square feet set under a soaring 30-foot ceiling, unveiling an unrivaled tapestry of views: the jewel box of the Miami skyline with visibility of the Fort Lauderdale cityscape to the north, the vast beauty of the Everglades to the west and sweeping perspectives of the Atlantic Ocean to the east and on the southern horizon. The Residences at 1428 Brickell is being developed by 1428 Brickell, LLC, a subsidiary of Miami-based real estate development firm Ytech. The Residences at 1428 Brickell is slated for completion in 2027.

“Our objective was clear: to create one of the most exceptional penthouse residences in the world. The Penthouse at 1428 Brickell sets new standards in luxury living, not just in Miami but globally,” shared Yamal Yidios, CEO of Ytech.

Curated by the esteemed Milan-based ACPV ARCHITECTS led by Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel, this epitome of luxury is a testament to unrivaled design, influenced by iconic figures of the 20th century, including Oscar Niemeyer, Luigi Caccia Dominioni, Angelo Mangiarotti, Charlotte Perriand, and Philip Johnson. Antonio Citterio reflected, “Our commitment was to evoke the spirit of architectural and design masters of the 20th century. Through a unique combination of light, space, and texture, we've created a penthouse that reinterprets luxury.” Patricia Viel added, “We took inspiration from design greats, channeling their genius into crafting a space that harmoniously combines elegance and functionality. Each detail prioritizes residents’ experience from the moment they arrive at the building, until they reach the privacy of their residence."

By channeling the genius of icons, such as Niemeyer’s sublime curves, Philip Johnson’s emphasis on creating truly livable, engaging spaces, and Mangiarotti’s reverence for natural materials, the penthouse became an opulent tapestry of silk georgette marble, eucalyptus wood claddings, mineral lime-based finishes, fluted glass walls, spaghetti stone touches and ash flooring. These lavish materials were handpicked by Ytech's diligent team during their global expeditions, ensuring each selection met the project’s unparalleled standards.

The development and design teams collaborated in consideration of crucial elements including configuring front- and back-of-house circulation schemes, planning the flow of rooms within the residence to balance day and night areas, integrating a specialized structural and envelope design for the residence, and bringing in specialists for comprehensive 3-D concept, schematic, and design analysis of key spaces within the estate in the sky. Exhaustive research underpinned the creation of a stone-clad sculptural stairway, a centerpiece of the residence, where more than 32 different designs were studied showcasing the lengths taken to achieve perfection. An extensive solar study guarantees every space captures optimal light, imbuing the residence with a mesmerizing glow that shifts with the sun, allowing residents to immerse in the sublime, panoramic city vistas, and ensuring a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor luxuries.

This penthouse's ambitious two-story floor plan includes multiple facets, from a custom-designed library bar featuring silk georgette to a Salvatori stone-adorned master bathroom. Contributing to the residence’s sophistication, refined staging showcases other unique elements that dazzle the eye, such as pivoting walls, a sculptural stone bar, and a walk-in, temperature-controlled wine cellar. The artisans of Vaselli, chosen for their exclusivity, immense history, and excellence in stonework, will craft a stunning centerpiece-like front-of-house kitchen. Italy’s Arclinea will similarly design a one-of-a-kind separate chef’s kitchen within the residence. The firm, known for its innovative and precise construction of complex kitchens, was handpicked for its integral consideration of one’s individual livability and function within culinary spaces.

The Penthouse at The Residences at 1428 Brickell will feature two stories, extraordinary 30-foot ceilings equal to almost four levels of a traditional building, 7 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, two east-facing balconies with unparalleled views of the Brickell skyline, two elevators leading to a private foyer, and an additional elevator within the residence that leads to the second floor.

In addition to this masterpiece, The Residences at 1428 Brickell offerings include a limited collection of residences, priced from $2 million to $7 million, that will be fully finished with two- to four-bedroom plus den homes ranging from 1,800 to 4,000 square feet. The property’s Penthouse Collection also includes lower penthouses starting from $8 million and ranging in size from 4,000 to 10,000 square feet. These residences showcase stunning water views and have been thoughtfully created with a true flow-through configuration to maximize light. A significant portion of residences within the property are two-story, creating the feeling of a single-family home in the sky.

Over 80,000 square feet of amenity space will also adorn The Residences at 1428 Brickell. Located 860 feet in the sky, Ytech dedicated the three levels within the top of the tower to house curated private and shared spaces showcasing stunning, panoramic city views. Amenities include an expansive 10,000 square foot gym with weight room, HIIT room, and an indoor/outdoor yoga room, a rooftop pool and atrium, a hot spa and daybed lounging area, a two-story wine and fine art lounge, state-of-the-art office suites, a private dining room with a one-of-a-kind Vaselli kitchen, a juice and wellness bar, an immersive spa, an aquatic therapy area, a children’s recreation and learning center, fully furnished private guest suites, and more.
