Can you feel the HEAT of Miami?

Again, another month passes us by. Yesterday the US elections and in a few weeks time we celebrate Thanksgiving. 

Each month we look at a home(s) that sold in our glorious South Florida. This one, which was originally priced at $13,999,000  is located in Coral Gables. With eight bedrooms and eight bathrooms this is a real stunner. 

But we believe the best feature of this home is the total feeling of luxury.

Can you feel the HEAT ....




If you are looking to take a break to the sun this winter, why not join us in South Florida. Miami has the perfect weather in the winter time. Come on down and FEEL the heat of Miami.
