Miami

Water takes center stage across this trio of residences, where daily life is shaped by expansive views and an easy rhythm between indoors and out. From a design-forward corner home at Casa Bella Residences by B&B Italia in Miami to a gated Aventura townhome with serene canal outlooks and a private elevator, each offers low-friction living without sacrificing atmosphere. The story culminates in St. Thomas, where Sunswept Cove—once part of Fleetwood Mac’s estate—reimagines history as a refined Caribbean retreat.

Along Florida’s shoreline, this quintet traces two complementary paths to waterfront living. Three residences frame the oceanfront routine through views, balconies, and amenity-rich buildings, from Ocean Palms’ generous three-bedroom plan with en-suite baths to Parker Plaza Estates’ partial ocean and Intracoastal outlook. At the other end of the spectrum, two Keys offerings speak to patience and strategy, including a Cudjoe Key lot defined by Monroe County ROGO points and a sparely described parcel on Little Knockemdown Key. Anchoring the set, Bentley Residences spotlights private four-car garages and an expansive amenity program.

Across South Florida, this quintet traces how design and setting shape everyday life, from storied heritage to forward-looking urban form. In Coral Gables, Casa del Roble pairs Mediterranean Revival gravitas with modern upgrades and a flexible detached studio on a generous lot. Cocobay in Coconut Creek and a corner home in Keys Gate highlight gated-community ease, turnkey updates, and indoor-outdoor living, with a fully furnished option. Boca Raton’s Sanctuary Lane Estate elevates contemporary waterfront scale, while Wynwood’s WOMA reimagines creative live-work living through iconic architecture and amenity-rich planning.

Coastal living takes varied, compelling forms across this quintet of water-adjacent properties spanning the Bahamas and Miami. From a build-ready homesite just blocks from Eleuthera’s Twin Coves pink sands to creek-bounded acreage in North Abaco with highway frontage, the collection balances lifestyle and long-range potential. Paradise Island’s Four Seasons Residences elevate the resort dimension with oceanfront amenities, while South Coconut Grove delivers a renovated estate built for indoor-outdoor entertaining. In Nassau’s Dick’s Point, a serene enclave pairs a private pool with a separate efficiency unit for added flexibility.

Florida’s appeal lies in how effortlessly it shifts from personal escape to practical ownership, and this curated five-property collection captures that range. From renovated lakefront living on Lake Jackson in Sebring to turnkey, fully furnished coastal residences in Sunny Isles Beach and Fort Lauderdale’s Conrad-managed Ocean Resort, each option leans into low-friction use and strong location-driven demand. Completing the quintet, two well-kept Homestead homes on oversized, fenced lots prioritize outdoor space, everyday comfort, and room to grow.

Bringing a bold new vision of urban living to Wynwood, this newly built condominium residence pairs striking architecture with an impressive collection of resort-style amenities. Designed by acclaimed Dutch firm MVRDV in collaboration with Miami-based Kobi Karp, the WOMA development draws inspiration from Wynwood’s creative heritage, with a distinctive woven façade and thoughtfully designed interiors. This one-bedroom, one-bath residence spans 723 square feet and offers a sophisticated setting within one of Miami’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Residents enjoy access to a semi-Olympic rooftop pool, landscaped garden terraces, fitness and wellness spaces, sauna and steam rooms, pickleball, a movie theater, business center, kids’ playroom, and pet park. Ideally positioned near Wynwood Walls, Midtown, and the Miami Design District, the property offers a contemporary take on Miami living surrounded by art, culture, dining, and design.

Set on the exclusive private island of Sunset Key, this fully renovated Key West retreat offers an exceptional blend of seclusion, resort-style amenities, and waterfront living. The approximately 2,952-square-foot residence features three bedrooms, refined interiors, a private pool and spa, and direct access to Crescent Beach. Completely renovated in 2018, the home combines modern comforts with an effortless island aesthetic, while ownership includes access to private beaches, an oceanfront restaurant, spa, fitness center, and tennis courts. Just an eight-minute private ferry ride from Key West, the property offers a rare sense of privacy without sacrificing proximity to the island’s renowned dining, shopping, and cultural attractions.
