The following year, Ashley made the acquisition for more than 20% below the asking price at $30,000,000. A three-year holding period yielded an approximate 50% profit on his investment with the ultimate sale taking place at $15mil about his purchase price.

This community houses lavish mansions on oversized lots – each and every one of them with absolutely breathtaking waterfront views. Containing only 34 lots, the ultra-exclusive private island offers a lifestyle that is simply incomparable; it is the best of the best. And each lot begins at 40,000 square feet, making the entire community a neighborhood of luxury estates. The pristine waterfront location makes boating easy. Homes within the neighborhood enjoy the benefits of expansive dock space in their backyards. It’s common to see magnificent yachts docked directly behind incredible mansions. The ample lot sizes also give way to stunning pools and landscaping that bode well for entertaining. And Star Island Miami is world-famous for the parties and events thrown by their residents. New Year's Eve and other holidays come to life within the community like no other island in Florida. It’s simply an amazing environment.

Residents feel quite assured that their homes are protected at all times with a constant security presence at the guard gate entrance. Star Island real estate is considered to be incredibly valuable; in fact, many consider Star Island Miami as one of the most prestigious addresses on Earth. Residents understand this and have spared no expense in outfitting their estates with incredible finishes and architectural features. The lush landscaping throughout the properties is simply a beautiful sight to take in and appreciate. With the perfect location as the closest island to South Beach, Star Island homes offer the difficult-to-find private lifestyle while still being minutes away from the incredible dining and nightlife options of South Beach. The MacArthur Causeway also connects the community to all of the happenings of downtown Miami seamlessly. In looking at some of the most valuable properties in America, Star Island real estate reigns as the supreme trophy asset and spot to live for the world's rich and famous. The sheer amount of wealth that congregates on the island is incredible. It's so popular that Miami has its own lucrative boat tours that specialize in touring these spectacular waterfront mansions. On a daily basis, the general public enjoys the tours encircling the island and marveling at the billionaires and celebrities that live on the island. Rumors come and go with the latest speculation on the luxurious island's residents. So that begs the question of who lives on Star Island exactly? The list begins with the legendary Gloria Estevan living on 1 Star Island, which is currently listed on the market for $40,000,000. Even if the house is sold, the Estevan's still plan on living on the island at another one of the residences that they own at 39 Star Island Miami, which is a beautiful 2-acre estate. The Estevan's originally purchased the home in 1993 for just under $2,000,000, and they are expecting a very nice return on their investment. It certainly pays, in the long run, to live on the most expensive island in Florida. 7 Star Island is owned by Stewart Miller the CEO of the powerhouse development company Lennar. The mansion has ten bedrooms and 11 baths and is approximately 10,000 square feet with beautifully maintained landscaping on the property. Since Stewart is a home builder, this property is no doubt an example of what a billionaire's home should look and feel like. Recently there has been quite a bit of news surrounding Miller and his plans for further development within the community, and he seems to be quite well capitalized to do so. In 2015, Miller was paid compensation totaling $17.9 million for his position with Lennar. Miller is looking to combine three lots within the community to form one mega-compound like nothing seen before among residents. The new property would encompass nearly three acres and the city of Miami Beach is currently reviewing his proposal for variances in lot size and home size. With a property over 120,000 square feet, it will certainly be an eye-catcher. He has proposed a two-story mansion that would include subterranean parking for over 30 spaces, berthing for a super yacht, a magnificent lagoon, and waterfall, along with other essentials like a motor court to display classic, rare vehicles. There would be multiple guest houses on the property along with an art gallery multiple kitchens around the 70,000 square foot mansion. Could this be the Miami Star Island Beach FL home that ultimately breaks the $100,000,000 threshold? One could assume it could if approved. 5 Star Island is owned by the South Beach legend Thomas Kramer, who over the years has been known for his decadent parties. He is the one the virtually singlehandedly gave Star Island Miami the reputation of prestige. To get into one of Thomas Kramer's parties was no small feat back in the 90s, and it still is today. We had the pleasure of attending one a few years ago, and the level of beautiful (both from models and interior and exterior design) was amazing. With 13 bedrooms and 12 baths the property is fit for a king. And for Thomas Kramer, Star Island certainly fits into the role quite well as a palatial neighborhood to call home. The mansion is available for rent for a mere $150,000 per month, and this price has not kept many renters out of the market. 21 Star Island is the home of billionaire Philip Frost. The mansion is a whopping 37,000 square feet in size, and the property is a gorgeous showcase of some of the most beautiful landscaping on planet Earth. With a lot that is nearly six acres, Mr. Frost certainly has a home that is fit for entertaining royalty.

Private, convenient and glamorous. Magnificent aquamarine water views. The Sunset Islands Miami Beach are formed by four islands with a reputation as being the most desirable private home communities in all of South Florida. One doesn't have to think much about why these luxury homes are in such tremendous demand. It's quite simple. The old adage of real estate aptly describes the situation…location, location, location baby. The community has an ultra-special amenity – walking distance to Lincoln Road. There aren’t many private islands in the world that are walking distance to a world-class High Street retail. Many condos across the globe are located in major metropolitan areas that have walking access to the finest shops and restaurants within their city, but single family homes are much rarer. The land is simply too valuable near these chic areas of high pedestrian traffic. Not the Sunset Islands Miami Beach, though. They are diamonds that stands out among all other precious real estate gems. Sunsets and bay views on the islands are impossible to ignore. These panoramic bay views offer sunsets that are truly something to behold. Many luxury residences are built on the waterfront property of the island, giving residents some of the best views in Florida. Since most of the waterfront lots on Sunset Islands 1 and 2 are around 20,000 sqft and above, with their own private security guard gate and homes that range up to $25,000,000 and above. Needless to say. the neighborhood is considered to be an incredibly high-end area. With more than 100 feet of water frontage at many locations, these islands offer a unique aesthetic comprised of Mediterranean influences and modern sophistication. Each of the more southern islands also offer great sunsets, but are in closer proximity to the center of Miami Beach. The cuisine near the Sunset Islands is impossible to beat. Well- known restaurants like Sardinia Ristorante, Juvia, Meat Market, and Barton G are all nearby. Hot clubs like Set, Story, and Hyde at the SLS Hotel are all in proximity. The Sunset Islands are the perfect choice for anyone in the market for sweeping sunset views and an active day or nightlife. The two southernmost islands of the four islands, are Sunset 3 and 4. Like Sunset Islands 1 and 2, magnificent sunsets can be enjoyed from many of these homes. These two southern-most islands are a bit closer to Miami Beach's pulse. All of The Sunset Islands are in close proximity to all that Miami Beach and South Florida offers. Residents often discuss amongst themselves that the Sunset Islands are the coolest and least pretentious of the Miami private islands communities. The islands are home to some of the most glamorous annual costume parties on planet Earth. Some of the most wealthy and influential figures of Miami reside within Sunset Islands including the master real estate developer Scott Robbins who has recently re-developed the Miami Design District into a thriving six-star international food and dining mecca. Robbins no doubt understands real estate value, and it speaks volumes that the Sunset Islands are his place of chosen residence. The hottest nightclub owner in all of the United States, Dave Grutman also takes residence within the community. His nightclubs Liv and Story have consistently been the place of choice for the rich, famous and decadent to spend their nights on South Beach. And the Sunset Islands Miami are his home. His home sits on a double lot with 210 linear feet of water frontage. You can often see him zipping through the expansive Bay of Biscayne in his sleek Van Dutch boat. Like many residents on the island, his home is a virtual museum of art pieces and eye-catching interior design. But the real fun comes with the pool area and exterior landscaping. South Florida is truly blessed to have an endless summer and homes on the Sunset Islands Miami Beach are located in the enviable position to maximize an indoor / outdoor lifestyle on the water.

A wonderful enclave of single family homes. Perfect for a lifestyle of convenience and outdoor activities. Treasure Island Miami stands just as grand and exciting as the name implies. This island is one of the finest neighborhoods in all of South Florida. Located within the trendy North Bay Village, this community reaps the benefits of being surrounded by the gorgeous waters of Biscayne Bay. It is perfectly located in between North Beach and the Mimo Historic District of Miami. The location is an extreme plus, offering the best of both worlds of beach and city life. A decade ago things were different; Mimo was not nearly what it is today, and North Miami Beach was still an up-and-coming area. Things are much different now. The MiMo District was named the neighborhood of the year recently, and the upper east side is an excellent place to explore the new cafes and restaurants that seem to be popping up in droves. To the east, the beach is the beach; there are not many places on planet earth that compare to the life on the waters of Miami Beach. There is a reason why tourists and second home buyers from around the world flock to this area religiously. Treasure Island Miami captures it all while maintaining a distinctly peaceful and residential feel. The perfect spot to call home. The Treasure Island Miami homes for sale are available in a variety of different architectural styles and lots sizes, but the supply of houses available to purchase is tight. A starter home can still be found for under $500,000 while a larger bayfront mansion will cost north of $2,000,000, which is still a tremendous bargain when compared to some the of the adjacent communities like the millionaire's enclave of La Groce Island and the mansion estate community of Allison Island. Real estate values within the area continue to rise with single family homes coming as a premium. After all, there are only so many houses on Miami Beach. The supply is naturally turning over into higher and higher quality, and bigger and bigger homes as older properties get purchased as tear down and are metamorphosized into trophy, dream homes. The market forces continue to do this and seem to set new records with the passing of each day. In addition to Treasure Island Miami having its distinct residential feel, there are also some notable restaurants and entertainment options within the community that are well-known throughout all of Miami. Shuckers Bar and Grill is an incredible spot to take in a sporting event or have an evening date sitting out directly on the bay. There are very few restaurants in the city that offer these direct views of the water while dining. It's simply hypnotizing. A view made for postcards to make your friends envious. The famous Benihana of Miami Beach is also situated on the island offering another unique location for dinner. Watching the expert chefs work their magic never seems to get boring. And the fact that is just a stone's throw away from many of the luxurious waterfront homes makes the community all the more appetizing. If you are thinking of living the South Florida island life and entering the single-family homes market but don't want to spend millions up millions of dollars, then Treasure Island Miami is an exceptional neighborhood to explore. Browse our listings above and once you have found the properties that interest you the most, be sure to contact us. We'll arrange a private tour of the best properties within the community. Start living your dream lifestyle now.

Incredible, expansive sunset water views amongst the backdrop of countless sailboats and the magnificent skyline of Miami. The Venetian Islands views are simply the best of the best; the word breathtaking still does not do them justice. The community is a cluster of man-made islands in the Biscayne Bay and home to some of the most incredible real estate in Miami. The islands are, from east to west, Belle Isle, Rivo Alto Island, Di Lido Island, San Marino Island, San Marco Island and Biscayne Island. The four islands furthest to the east belong in Miami Beach, and the other two belong to the city of Miami.  These artificial islands represent the beginning of a much larger project that never came to fruition, a plan that included the building of four more islands, more bridges, and more roads. After the “Great Miami Hurricane in 1926 and the end of what was referred to as the Florida land boom in the 20’s, plans to keep adding islands came to a halt, and the six current luxurious and exclusive islands were the result. What people love so much about Venetian Islands real estate is the diversity of looks, styles, and sizes of the homes on each island. Some Venetian Island houses are on the water some are more inland. From midcentury modern mansions selling for $6.5 million, to Mediterranean style and Balinese-style homes that you can rent for 50k a month, you’ll be able to find just the right home, on just the right island.

Belle Isle

Belle Isle is the easternmost island in the chain that makes up the Venetian Islands. It is a quiet island composed of apartment buildings, a public park, and a hotel. The Venetian Causeway runs through this island connecting it to Rivo Alto Island on one side and Miami mainland on the other. A major highlight of Belle Isle is the Standard Hotel and Spa. This five-star hotel offers a modern spa experience to hotel guests, unlike anything they’ve experienced before. Roman waterfall hot tubs, mud lounges, an arctic plunge, fitness classes and a salt water infinity pool encourage a holistic approach to relaxation. Instead of feeling like a typical hotel, The Standard feels more like a posh spa with guest rooms.

Rivo Alto Island

The second island in the chain is home to architecturally diverse Miami real estate, and unlike Belle Isle, is strictly zoned for single-family residential property. Waterfront lots in Rivo Alto Island have unobstructed views of Biscayne Bay and/or the Miami skyline, and it’s close proximity to both Downtown Miami and South Beach makes it a desirable place to live. Residents can walk to Sunset Harbor for a wine tasting, fitness class or have dinner at popular restaurants like Pub Belly or Yardbird Southern Table and Bar. The Miami International Airport is only twenty minutes away, and this unique island has a way of blending luxury real estate with a classic small town community feel that is hard to find on the other islands.

Di Lido Island

The largest island in the chain, Di Lido Island is separated into “East Di Lido” and “West Di Lido’ by the Venetian Causeway and is home to luxury waterfront mansions and chic pool homes. There are trendy brunch places and coffee shops that line the quiet streets that are dotted with palm trees and million dollar homes. Recently, Miami model Daniela Urzi sold her Venetian Island home on Di Lido Island for $10 million!

San Marino Island

For luxurious, waterfront property with incredible views of the Biscayne Bay, many high profile figures flock to San Marino Island for the epitome of VIP living. Multi-million dollar homes with private docks and yachts make up a majority of this island.  During the winter, many high profile figures and celebrities quietly retreat to their Venetian Island mansions to get away from the craziness of Miami and enjoy a little peace and privacy.

San Marco Island

High profile figures and celebrities like San Marco Island because it offers the exclusivity and privacy that only an island can offer, while still being close enough to the beaches and just a short drive on the Venetian Causeway to the mainland. Homes here have expansive square footage, sparkling pools and meticulous backyards that overlook the bay. Million dollar listings go quickly here, and residents appreciate the privacy and privilege that comes from living on this highly sought after island. Many Miami residents who are venturing out to the Venetian islands for the first time star with rental homes on the Venetian Islands so they can get used to the lifestyle, and eventually find the island that fits their style and personality, and finally purchase a Venetian Islands home of their own.

Biscayne Island

Originally home to an airport, this unique island is the closest to the mainland and offers waterfront real estate for almost every home on the island. The views of the Miami skyline and Biscayne Bay from almost every home on the island make it a popular place to buy real estate. The Venetian Causeway connects the island to the mainland, where residents can enjoy a wide variety of restaurants, sidewalk boutiques, name brand clothing stores, bars, fitness centers, juice bars and more.

Getting On And Off The Islands

The causeway started as a wooden bridge built in 1913, which opened up the possibility of growth and development that surpassed the water’s edge. It is very common to see Miami residents jogging, walking or skating on the Venetian Causeway, a gorgeous route that offers 360 views of the water from its bridges. The causeway connects all of the islands so the mainland, and runners appreciate the beautiful scenery and passing the various multi-million-dollar homes for sale on the Venetian Islands is a welcome distraction on a long run. The causeway was just revamped last year and has helped ease traffic getting on and off of the beach.  The newly updated bridges made running and biking a little easier and widened the lanes to relieve some crowding. Even if they have to take a break to let the drawbridge go up or down, exercise enthusiasts are happy to have the scenic route available to them for a breathtaking run. Running on the causeway is the only place in Miami where you can run and have water on both sides of you!

Shopping and Dining

The location of the Venetian Islands is excellent for residents who want to be close enough to South Beach and Lincoln Road to experience all of the local restaurants and dining options, but still want the ultimate privacy and seclusion that comes with living on one of these prestigious islands. Downtown Miami is just a short drive from any of the islands, and the adjacent Sunset Harbor community provides even more luxury real estate options. Living on the islands feels like a private paradise, but a short drive over the causeway and you’re smack in the middle of the action, the excitement and the conveniences of South Beach. For many, living in an affluent part of Miami is a dream come true, but Venetian Islands real estate truly takes it up a notch. Living here, whether on a dry lot or waterfront property, is the definition of luxury, comfort, and convenience. It is how Miami’s elite experience a tropical island paradise without being too far from what makes Miami sexy, sophisticated and fun. These islands are rich in history but, in true Miami style, are constantly changing and evolving to keep up with the upscale lifestyle of the people who live here.
