Back to North Bay Road, Estate of the Day
We visited North Bay Road in Miami Beach last month for an estate of the day but a reader, Marie, sent me the link for this one. I figured it was worth sharing with you. I'm not quite sure what sort of happy money cocktail designers are sipping along North Bay Road but it makes for some interesting decorating decisions, especially as newer owners with lots of money try to bend older homes to their will. The last estate we saw in this area was a strange amalgam of modern and absurd baroque. This one is a less obvious and more lavish case, but there are still some interesting juxtapositions here. The current owners seem to have a hankering for the modern, hence the new spare and bare contemporary kitchen and bathrooms, but this home still has the particularly Miami affliction of gold paint details on the walls. The home is over 10,000 square feet with nine bedrooms and it has a nice chunk of bay frontage with a dock. This estate is listed at $18.9 million.

Beautiful house but I'm not sure I like the picture of the lone sink or the lone bed above it. It just doesn't look... welcoming. Everything is looks great to me though.

I like this far and away better than the modern Estate from yesterday (was it? with all the lotus chairs). This one has more potential. I agree the lone sink and lone platform couch / day bed is lonely and unwelcoming, but it's likely just not staged well.

I have always wanted a house where I could take a dump and look at people on the terrace beause I have an exterior door on my bathroom big enough to drive an atv thru.
