Located at 6401 Pine Tree Drive Circle, this 1936 house designed by prominent early Miami Beach architect Russell Pancoast was gorgeously restored and listed for $8.95 million.
Completely historically unprotected, most Miami Beach single-family homes are notably vulnerable to demolition and often replaced by massive new glass palazzi, a fate of many nearby houses. So, whenever one such as this is preserved and restored, with original details such as the elaborate living room fireplace, expansive courtyard garden, and exposed-beam loggia, is preserved and loved, that house is worth taking a good look at.
The six bedroom, five and a half bath, 7,000 square foot Mediterranean Revival house leisurely stretches out over 20,000 square feet of water frontage facing east, over Indian Creek, and the Atlantic further afield.
