Park City, known as a winter playground, also offers more than 400 acres of hiking, biking and horseback trails during the warm months of the year.

9 The Seashell Capital of Florida Sanibel—Captiva Island, Florida

by Nicole Lauber and Gabrielle Peyinghaus “It’s a great time to buy in Sanibel—Captiva Island,” says Mike McMurray of VIP Realty in Sanibel. “The prices for the quality of product have never been better—we haven’t seen prices like this in years. Our market has never really been about discounted prices, but if people want it, they buy it. And when they buy it, they’re buying more than just a house—they’re buying a lifestyle.”

50 Tranquility Miami Beach, Florida

by Nicole Lauber While most high-end properties can boast an ideal location, a stunning view, exquisite details and amenities, or a grand lot size; only a few properties have all four. Such is the case for this home in Miami Beach.

SANIBEL—CAPTIVA ISLAND, FLORIDA

THE SEASHELL CAPITAL OF FLORIDA

By Nicole Lauber and Gabrielle Peyinghaus “It’s a great time to buy in Sanibel —Captiva Island,” says Mike McMurray of VIP Realty in Sanibel. “The prices for the quality of product have never been better—we haven’t seen prices like this in years.

Because of that, the demand for homes on Sanibel-Captiva is up.

Our market has never really been about discounted prices, but if people want it, they buy it. And when they buy it, they’re buying more than just a house— they’re buying a lifestyle.”

That lifestyle, the island lifestyle, is one of the draws for people looking to move into the area. Known as “The Seashell Capital of Florida” and for the J.N. Darling National Wildlife Refuge, the pace is slower and more relaxed on these historic islands. Warm temperatures year round and refreshing ocean breezes make bathing suits and flip-flops the official attire of Sanibel and Captiva.

McMurray notes that despite decreased inventory of homes in the stable market on the islands due to high sales, many unique homes are still available in the area. Residents of Sanibel-Captiva enjoy the escape from city lights and high-rise condos, preferring to ride their bicycles back in time to the simpler beauty Florida has to offer.

PUBLISHER’S LETTER Dear Readers, Welcome to the New Year. Whether you are looking to buy a new estate or vacation property, sell your existing home, or update the properties you currently own, you will find something of interest in the following pages.

The Great Escape will, no doubt, entice you to the Fort Lauderdale area in southeast Florida. Homes on the private peninsula of One Thousand Ocean have the trifecta of water views, including the Atlantic Ocean, the Boca Raton Inlet, and Lake Boca Raton.

Their Premier Club membership provides amenities such as seven pools, 30 tennis courts, a private beach, world-class dining and two golf courses. If you aren’t in the market to buy, but would like to try out the area, you’ll want to read about Trans-Americans Services. Trans-American Services in Fort Lauderdale unites owners of luxury timeshares, private jets and yachts who are unable to use them with those looking for a one-of-a-kind vacation at a great price.

FEATURED PROPERTY editorials include a French Country Villa in King City, Ontario, Canada.

Spectacular views, both inside the home and outside the property, are shown in the two-page spread. You won’t want to miss reading about these exquisite properties.

The EDITOR’S CHOICE this month is Casa Piena in Poway, San Diego County, California. You may have read about this property last month in the PUBLISHER’S SPOTLIGHT. The Editor felt it was impressive enough to include it as her choice this month.

This estate is just 30 minutes from downtown San Diego, and is on four-and-one-half acres with scenic valley and hill vistas.

The use of trip planning services makes vacations virtually stress-free by taking the planning aspect out of family holidays.

Trans-American Services “Our number one goal is to make our clients happy. Excellence is a requirement. Anything less is unacceptable,” says Denis Chira, Chairman of the Board for Trans-American Services.

Based out of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, Trans-American unites owners of luxury timeshares, private jets and yachts who are be unable to use them with those looking for a one-of-a-kind vacation at a great price. Customers looking for a private get-away can feel secure that their privacy is of paramount importance. Timeshares often have more amenities than luxury hotels and with gated, keyed entries, families can come

and go as they please. Private, crewed yachts can be chartered to take customers on luxury sailing vacations, and private planes and Learjets allow clients to “own” a jet for just the time they need it.

Specializing in knowing exactly how to promote these luxury items to the right clients sets Trans-American apart from the competition. “We put our clients in front of the right audience – we are the standard of the world in advertising. We work with major corporations all over the world,” says Denis.

“But at the end of the day, we treat each and every customer the way we want to be treated – with a personal experience to help plan dream vacations.”

Year-round adventure awaits the active home buyer in Park City, Utah. Long thought of as a winter playground, residents of such exclusive communities as The Colony at White Pine Canyon enjoy more than 400 acres of hiking, biking and horseback trails during the warm months of the year. Park City residents also have the advantages of world-class shopping and dining at their doorstep as well as access to some of the world’s best powder ski resorts.

The 12,000-square-foot Cloud’s Rest, listed by Shane Herbert and Scott Maizlish of Summit Sotheby’s International, sits on 4.17 acres of preserved wooded mountainside within the private gated community of The Colony at White Pine Canyon. The six-bedroom, ten-bathroom estate features ski-in/ski-out access to The Canyons as well as close proximity to Park City Mountain Resort and Deer Valley. Cloud’s Rest also features one of the largest residential rock-climbing gyms in the world, giving the homeowner ample recreational choices, indoors and out.

Cloud’s Rest boasts the versatility of an open, inviting layout that is great for stylish entertaining while still maintaining a cozy, homey feel. Seven fireplaces and knotted-alder interior trim, with pine and fir trusses as well as timber beams, create a lodge-like ambiance.

The home also includes a six-car garage, radiant heating in the floors throughout, and a top-of-the-line home theater featuring Crestron electronics and a Kaleidescape Entertainment System.

“One thing I really like about this home is the dining room; it has huge glass windows, which capture both up and down valley views,” mentions Maizlish. These windows seamlessly blend the stunning interiors with open wilderness and never-ending blue skies. The four-person master suite features a balcony hot tub and a master “looking glass” shower with three rain heads, infrared space heaters, and a towel-warming drawer. These luxurious amenities keep Cloud’s Rest residents warm and comfortable in the winter, while the estate’s higher mountain elevation helps keep the property cool in summer, making this an ideal all-season retreat.

“Each space is designed to be interactive, whether that be for entertaining or family vacations. Most of the times when you go to a house at this price point, you don’t feel like you can sit down and put your feet up, but here you can,” says Herbert.

“Cloud’s Rest is truly a dream ski home.”

CASA PIENA Poway in San Diego County, California

A BUYERS GALLERY of FINE HOMES®

EDITOR’S CHOICE

Deemed a “Sanctuary for the Soul”—the Casa Piena estate is an unexpected jewel of luxury set amidst a private, gated community just 30 minutes from downtown San Diego, California. Exquisite details that recreate the ambiance of a northern Italian villa, masterful artwork and craftsmanship that draw on the finest materials from around the world.

Graced with 43 rooms, the estate consists of 26,862 square feet of living space, including 11 bedrooms and 17 bathrooms. Four separate buildings comprise the property: the main house, guest house, pool cabana, and detached garage. Classic interior details include carved wood moldings, solid walnut doors, elaborate beamed and hand-painted ceilings, custom murals, stone floors, exotic wood paneled walls, authentic Italian lighting and seven imported hand-carved stone fireplaces. The main house’s casino, theater, wine room, elevator, two offices, gourmet kitchen, master suite and guest rooms are highlighted by spaciousness, authentic Italian details and more than 100 windows.

The guest house features two bedrooms, a living room and full bath while the cabana offers a large patio, bar and full bath. A three-bay detached garage and three-bay attached garage provide ample room.

Set amidst four-and-one-half acres with scenic valley and hill vistas the estate also overlooks the Maderas Golf Club—rated the best golf course in San Diego County. The estate also features mature landscaping, a sunken tennis court, a 3,000+ square foot swimming pool with two waterfalls, a Jacuzzi with a swimming river, a rock slide and a grotto.

Ornate iron work complement the grounds and include a gazebo and arbors, a large backyard with two barbeque areas, a sunken garden, two large stone terraced areas, an olive orchard and a private jogging trail around the property. The estate is fully automated as a “smart house” with one-button controls for everything from lighting, sound, window/door locks, window coverings tied to an astronomical clock, security, air quality controls, and more.

No detail was spared and authentic materials and expert craftsmanship from 20 countries was utilized. Just one example is the wine room floor-crafted from stones that paved the streets in Jerusalem more than 2,000 years ago. Mosaic walls in the adjacent wine room bathroom were crafted by nuns in a monastery in Tunisia. Casa Piena is located in Heritage Estates in Poway in San Diego County, California.

This property offers terrific privacy, ample land and easy access to freeways. It’s a wonderful place to enjoy life.

Tranquility Miami Beach, Florida

While most high-end properties can boast an ideal location, a stunning view, exquisite details and amenities, or a grand lot size, only a few properties can have all four. Such is the case for 5800 North Bay Road in Miami Beach.

“5800 North Bay Road is a ‘perfect storm’ in reference to the best location, view, house and lot size in Miami Beach,” says Nelson Gonzalez, Senior Vice President of Esslinger-Wooten-Maxwell Realtors, Inc. Park Avenue is to New York City what North Bay Road is to Miami Beach. “The wide-open bay views and the fabulous sunsets make North Bay Road the most desirable street to live on in Miami Beach,” Nelson says. “Only a chosen few have the direct Miami skyline views due to the southwest exposure.”

Another factor that makes this property a jewel is the amount of land it sits on. “Land is a valuable commodity on Miami Beach. The standard lot on Miami Beach is usually under 20,000 square feet,”

50 FLORIDA

Nelson adds. “With 53,000 square feet of land and 200 feet on the open bay, 5800 North Bay Road is definitely a rarity in the area.”

In addition to the location and land size, history plays a part in this property. The house was originally built in 1929, but was completely rebuilt in 2009. Some of the past owners include Don Aronow, founder of Cigarette Boats, and Jennifer Lopez, internationally known actress, singer and TV personality.

Some amenities of the property that Nelson says are key include the fully interactive Crestron system, a 60-foot pool with separate spa, meticulous European details throughout, and a gated entry with security cameras throughout. A wet bar, a large boat dock with lifts, three-car garage and elevator are included with the property as well.

5800 North Bay Road is currently being sold as is for $42.5 million. www.NelsonGonzalez.com

FEATURED PROPERTY NEW JERSEY

Located just 8 miles from New York City, the Stone Mansion in Alpine, New Jersey, priced at $56,000,000, is one of the most extraordinary new properties to come to the luxury real estate market. Built on the historic property of the former Henry Clay Frick ll Estate, the Stone Mansion is also adjacent to the notable Alpine Country Club. The property offers the best of all worlds, with its proximity to Manhattan and to one of the best fairways in the Northeast, as well as it carries the pedigree of the former Henry Frick II Estate. Recently deemed as an “American Masterpiece” by bestselling author Michael Gross, the Stone Mansion is truly a one-of-a-kind masterpiece that would be a wonderful year-round residence or weekend estate.

“I wanted to build a home that was unlike any other mansion of this size, but was still livable,” says owner and builder Richard J. Kurtz. “The Stone Mansion is just that. It’s substantial in size and amenities, but it isn’t overwhelming.

It’s an extremely comfortable home in a very inviting and warm environment.”

Rarely has an estate of this grandeur been available in Alpine, New Jersey, the nation’s wealthiest zip code(Forbes, October 2011). The Stone Mansion is located within the only double-gated residence in Alpine. The 30,000-squarefoot mansion is situated on 6 majestic acres and surrounded by a stone perimeter wall for ultimate privacy. The home is controlled and visualized remotely anywhere in the world through 29 cameras with the touch of a smart phone through the advanced Creston Smart Home technology. With 42 rooms, this estate includes 12 bedroom suites, 19 bathrooms, 7 fireplaces, and grand scale formal reception rooms, including a ball room adorned by antique chandeliers. Forbes selected the Stone Mansion’s custom-designed kitchen by Christopher Peacock as among “America’s Most Decadent Kitchens.” Some of the state of the art amenities include a movie theatre, indoor basketball court, 4,000-bottle wine cellar with tasting room and fingerprint technology access, spa and fitness center, a tennis court, 65-foot outdoor salt water pool with Jacuzzi and pool house equipped with change rooms, outdoor and indoor kitchen, outdoor TV and fireplace.

Designed for “timeless elegance” (James Paragano, architect) the recent completion of the Stone Mansion achieves a new standard for excellence in luxury estate living. The Stone Mansion is available for private viewing.

JACKSON, TENNESSEE

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

By Nicole Lauber Head down south to Jackson, Tennessee, and you’ll find a city with multiple amenities, career and educational opportunities, friendly residents, and more.

“There is something for everyone,” Mike Baskin of Town & Country Inc. says about Jackson. “The area has wonderful state parks, such as Natchez Trace and Chickasaw, for camping, hiking, horseback riding, and many other outdoor activities. There are several lakes with outstanding fishing and skiing, and many historical places of interest, such as the Casey Jones Railroad Museum and the Rock-a-billy Hall of Fame.” Sports fans in Jackson have easy access to NHL, NBA and NFL games, and the city also hosts a variety of soccer, softball and baseball tournaments.

One property that Mike currently represents is Pecan Grove, an architectural masterpiece modeled after the Houmas House in Darrow, Louisiana. “The owners spent years researching and refining the design, and they traveled nationally and internationally to search for and purchase elements to maintain the integrity and historical accuracy of the design,” Mike says. “The residence and a custom three-stall barn with two cross-fenced pastures and a riding ring were strategically placed on approximately 17.5 acres to establish a luxurious estate that affords multiple uses.”

Beyond the variety of activities the city offers as a draw for visitors and residents, Mike believes the biggest perk of the area is the community aspect. “Jackson is a growing, thriving community that has wonderful amenities, friendly people, and is full of superior medical services, industries, and educational opportunities at every level,” Mike says. “It is truly a great place to call ‘home!’”
