About this home

Restored terrazzo, a palm-lined pool and sunset views from 50 feet of bay frontage.

Clerestory windows, painted white brick and a low flat roof mark this 1951 mid-century modern villa on the Venetian Islands, fully renovated in 2022 and facing west over the water. The single-story plan offers 3,628 square feet on a lot of 7,000 square feet, with five bedrooms, five full baths and one half bath, and the home is offered for sale with 50 feet of water frontage and a private dock.

Restored to their original polish, the terrazzo floors run uninterrupted from the entry gallery to the glass sliders at the pool. Dark walnut millwork, bronze hardware and smoked-glass details give the living and dining rooms a tailored, quiet character, and the open kitchen pairs walnut cabinetry with a honed marble island. The renovation added impact glass, new systems and updated baths, and the primary suite opens directly to the pool terrace.

A row of royal palms lines the pool as it runs toward the seawall, and evenings bring sunset views across Biscayne Bay. From the island, the Venetian Causeway reaches South Beach and downtown Miami in minutes.
