The iconic spirit of Grand Olde Florida beckons as you pass through a scene-setting palm tree colonnade and coral rock gate into a rainforest oasis. A broad porch with a jungle-green entrance and the roof-topping whimsical heron-in-flight weathervane make it instantly clear that this isn't just another beautiful Miami home.
This place is special. This place has soul.
A Ponce Davis model of Florida Vernacular Architecture, this street-to-street, double-gated custom estate incorporates native building materials, such as coral and keystone, with a resourceful Seminole-inspired design that originated in the 1800s in response to our distinct climate.
The best of yesteryear intertwines with a host of modern innovations and expected luxuries. Incorporating solar panels, an abundance of tall, wide impact windows and glass doors overlooking a lush native landscape, vaulted ceilings, a waterfall swimming pool, an expansive master suite with a spa-style multi-room bath and private pool-view balcony, marble floors, a butler's pantry, upstairs laundry, a magazine-worthy pool-front porch, a 2-car garage, a beautiful complete guest house spanning over 1,000 square feet, and more, this creation is a showpiece of South Florida's ultra-elite, regionally unique Classic Tropical Modernism.
The main residence houses 3 bedrooms plus a flexible room upstairs and another downstairs, along with 4 full baths. The pool-front guest house provides 1 bedroom, 1 bath, a spacious living room and dining room, and a porch with an alfresco kitchen.
Presiding over a half-acre property spanning from Ponce De Leon Road to SW 77th Street, either gate you pass transports you into a sanctuary of beauty, peace, and the privilege of finely cultivated South Florida living.
More than a home, Heron House is a destination unto itself.
