We've covered Florida's Indian Creek Island before. This private enclave in Miami-Dade County is one of the most exclusive communities in America. It is home to just 33 homes, each on the water on the edges of the island while a 180-acre golf course and the Indian Creek Golf Club make up much of the real estate in the middle. The island has its own 24-hour police force and marine patrol. This level of security has attracted many celebrities including Julio Iglesias. Today's home has six bedrooms and is located on an enviable two-acre landscape plot with 234 feet of deep bay frontage and view of downtown Miami. The style of the home is a bit staid with a reliance on draperies and traditional furniture but the location couldn't be better.

Although there aren't that many homes on the island there are a fair amount of listings available right now. This one, listed at $25.5 million isn't even the most expensive one. Right now there is a home under construction listed at $57 million and there is also another one listed at $35 million.

Not loving the decorating choices, but whatever. And what's with the driveway - mainly, why'd they choose to use a black asphault/pavement for the portion of the drive way that (I'm assuming) goes into the garage?

For that price you're buying yourself a decorating project and a dock rebuild. There is better inventory available on the Island for far less. I never understood why someone would live there and not own a yacht (as evidenced by dilapidated dock).
