This elegant Mediterranean-style villa offers three bedrooms and three bathrooms in a former interior designer’s house in a quiet setting just minutes from some of Miami Beach’s top beaches, restaurants and shopping plazas. The 2,500-square foot Villa Palma is located in Miami Beach on an avenue of stately homes and villas, just a few blocks from the Atlantic Ocean and a few minutes from bustling Lincoln Road and the Miami Beach Convention Center.
The fully air-conditioned house is just minutes from public beaches, shopping and the happening South Beach part of town. Yet the house is very private, located on a beautifully landscaped 8,000 square foot lot with a private pool surrounded by a beautiful canopy of palm trees and flowers.
A formal entrance area leads to an elegant L-shaped living room with two custom-built Italian sofas, limestone floors, and a fireplace. Off to the side is a formal dining room centered around a glass table set on two ornately carved Italian wooden pedestals. Continuing toward the back of the house on the ground floor, terracotta tiles lead to a completely renovated kitchen with stainless steel Kitchen Aid appliances, granite counter tops and a Dacor stove. The kitchen area includes a separate breakfast alcove filled with natural light and a granite table.
A covered deck area wraps around the back of the house for additional dining options, and beyond is a garden with a brick walkway to the driveway.
The ground floor of the house continues to the back with a small room with a washer and dryer, a full bathroom and large den room with television and DVD player. Stairs from the back of the living room lead up to three bedrooms and two bathrooms. One bedroom has an en suite limestone-lined bathroom with a completely enclosed shower. A door from this bedroom also leads to a large outdoor terrace.
A second master bedroom has a television as well. As in the other upstairs rooms, the third bedroom has a double bed, a wooden floor and a ceiling fan. The other second floor bathroom is also lined with limestone. Due to the rich array of furniture and decoration throughout the house, no children under 12 or pets are allowed. |
