This Italian Renaissance-inspired mansion frozen in time reveals the extravagant lifestyle of early 20th-century Miami's elite, complete with ornate rooms and original furnishings overlooking Biscayne Bay. The surrounding formal gardens feature sculptured topiaries, reflecting pools, and a charming stone barge that serves as the estate's iconic waterfront focal point. Wandering through the villa's 34 rooms and sprawling grounds feels like stepping into a Gilded Age fantasy that somehow survived the decades.
