This Waterfront Miami Property is the Definition of Artful Opulence

Property of the Week: The $17m home boasts a stellar collection of museum-worthy art pieces.

By Ellys Woodhouse

Miami has always been a beacon for luxury living, attracting a discerning crowd seeking sun, sea, and unparalleled style. Yet, this year, something even more opulent is in the air. The city is experiencing a surge in ultra-high-end real estate transactions, with an impressive 27% increase in eight-figure deals in Q2 alone – meaning Miami rivals New York City for the most expensive property market in the US.

Among the many eye-catching properties currently vying for the attention of this elite market is this modern waterfront masterpiece on Biscayne Point Island. Newly listed with Michael LeDuc and Albert Justo of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, 1844 Daytonia Road comes to the market asking for just under $17m.

The 5,352 sq-ft property of 1844 Daytonia Road is as much an architectural gem as it is a sanctuary of contemporary art. Among a stellar collection of museum-worthy pieces – comprising of contemporary works from artists such as Lita Albuquerque, Casper Brindle and Patrick Hughes, to name a few – which are also available to purchase by separate negotiation, what is included in the sale price is $270,000 worth of European designer furnishings found throughout the property.

Perhaps one of the standout pieces is a custom-built, circular glass staircase, a true showstopper handcrafted in New Zealand and imported to Miami. This dramatic centerpiece sets the tone for the home’s seamless blend of design and function, with five bedrooms, five full and one-half bathrooms and panoramic views of the bay.
