WILLIAMS ISLAND
VILLAS
Drawing inspiration from the architectural masterpieces of Tuscany, the luxury waterfront villas on Williams Island combine a reverence for the artisan craftsmanship of Florence with the technology and conveniences of contemporary living. The terra cotta roof tiles, arched windows, balconies and patios accented with wrought iron railings evoke images of the seaside towns of the northern Mediterranean. Consistent with that theme, the villas of this prime Florida real estate location overlook the south marina of Williams Island and are built around a piazza of paver stones centered by a magnificent fountain.
In the evenings, coach lights bathe the exterior walls with a warm glow and enhance the grandeur of these luxury Miami waterfront villas while residents relax by their private pools or return from their yachts, tied only steps away. These private, multi-level homes offer stunning views of Miami Lake and the south marina, easy access to the Intracoastal Promenade for leisurely strolls, and lush landscaping details which flatter this enclave within the Williams Island community in North Miami Beach's City of Excellence, Aventura.
Entering the grand foyer of each residence reveals a dramatic circular staircase with wrought iron pickets and railings and cathedral windows, which follow the stairs to the upper floors. While the stairs make a stunning statement and set the tone for the rest of the home, residents also enjoy private whisper ride elevators in each villa which makes moving from floor to floor effortless. Continuing into the spacious living room, a fireplace and mantle compete for attention with the thirteen-foot coffered ceiling, Italian marble floor, and French doors, which lead to the private patio and pool.
The kitchen is the heart of any home and with that in mind, the architects designed each of the Villa's gourmet kitchens to be an oasis for every member of the family. From the high ceilings to the polished wood cabinetry and the granite countertops to the Italian marble floor, the warmth that emanates from these kitchens inspires residents to linger. Cooking and cleanup is not only easy, it is a pleasure when you have state-of-the-art appliances with matching cabinet panels for the refrigerator and dishwasher, a spacious butler's pantry, under counter lighting, an oversized storage pantry, an informal dining area with panoramic window, and a center island all at your culinary disposal.
Furnished with a private entry vestibule and a large covered balcony offering panoramic views of the marina or the lake, the Villa's master suites are like homes within these homes. Cool evening breezes off the water make the central air conditioning an afterthought and the high-coffered ceilings, wide windows, and huge closets ensure that each master of the house has plenty of space. The master bath features separate his and hers vanities with granite countertops, marble floors and shower walls, gracious wood accents, Sigma faucets with crystal handles, and a huge shower with high-pressure fixtures. In the center of the master bath is a deep freestanding bathtub for long, luxuriant, and relaxing baths.
The Villa's secondary bedrooms and baths are also spacious and graced with high arched windows, huge closets, and depending on the villa, private balconies. Each bedroom features a full bath with marble countertops, decorative tile floors and shower walls that reach to the ceiling, and Kohler plumbing fixtures.
While each of these North Miami Beach real estate properties has its own personality and floor plan which simply must be seen and experienced to truly appreciate, they all share continuity in the quality of building materials and infrastructure which make it easy to bring the conveniences of modern technology into every room in the home.
Some of the other Villa specifications include Future Smart Networks home integration technology, which allows residents to control climate, security, and entertainment from small panels throughout the home. Also, Shielded RU-4 Quad cabling allows for separate telephone lines and cable television intro every bedroom, kitchen, family room and, if applicable, home theater, pub, and game room. Category V plenum cables for satellite and Internet connectivity is available in each bedroom, kitchen and, if applicable, game room, pub, and home theater. Additionally, there is a deluxe medicine cabinets in each bath, 400 Amp electrical service, Saturnia window sills at each operable window, and all exhaust fans are vented directly to the exterior with additional exhausts in the master bath. Outside the Villas offer exterior security double flood lights, attached two- or three-car garages, and high-capacity gas-fired water heaters with re-circulating hot water pumps for the home and pool.
