Some homes are designed to impress. Others are designed to be experienced. Set within the coveted waterfront enclave of Old Cutler Bay, this newly-built Balinese retreat is designed to reveal itself gradually, inviting you to slow down and take in every detail. As you arrive, exotic palms and rare tropical plantings create a lush canopy. Nearly 10,000 SF is framed by floor-to-ceiling glass, dissolving the boundary between interior and the tropical surroundings. Warm woods, sculptural stone, and layered natural materials bring depth and warmth throughout. Living spaces extend to deep covered terraces where the rhythm of the day slows and water becomes part of the experience. Eight bedroom suites offer privacy and flexibility, anchored by a primary suite positioned as its own quiet waterfront retreat. Step outside and one of Old Cutler Bay's most prized features awaits: deep water frontage with direct access to Biscayne Bay and the open ocean beyond. 9360 Balada captures the essence of tropical modern living, where nature, design, and the water's edge exist in perfect balance.
