Our Newest Home for Sale in South Miami

The beauty and allure of South Miami Beautiful Mediterranean Revival homes and Southern Rancher estates blend together on oversized plots of land, so of course when our team came to this incredible home for our listing appointment, we immediately fell in love. 

"A Piece of the Hollywood Hills in the heart of South Miami" immediately came to mind as the opening line for the home's MLS listing. The home at 6780 SW 68th Terrace is located on a quiet, no-through street in the very coveted area of South Miami. Originally midcentury designed, the residence had been transformed into a Spanish Hacienda by the world famous pianist and composer Rafael Ferro, who created the eternal music of none other than Julio Iglesias!

Talk about a colorful history-- The current owners, whom coincidentally loved Julio Iglesias, restored the home to its Midcentury Glory days in conjunction with the skillful eye of Luminaire designers Alicia and Alessia. The project was undertaken and took over 2 years to complete. However there was nothing overlooked. In fact, the home was expanded well over 1,500 SF alone by incorporating its original bunker into the home for a gym/fitness center or a VERY hip man cave or guest suite. The Master Wing was the Piece-de-Resistance as Italian Made Porro Closets, two contemporary and oversized Spa-like Baths and a Treehouse Master Suite were completely added to the home. Top of the line Gaggenau and Leicht Kitchen was straight out of a Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. Glass replaced concrete walls to bring the outdoors in and complete the South Florida Lifestyle. Everything was done completely custom and carte blanche. Best of all, it was exclusively ours to sell.

Once we went LIVE with the listing, our first day lined up with back to back listings. In under 24 hours, we had SEVERAL full price offers and we ended up going into contract in JUST ONE DAY.

Our sellers were thrilled we had a great and the buyers were more than grateful to have been the winning bid.
