Privately nestled within the exclusive gated community of Banyan Drive, this one-of-a-kind residence designed by acclaimed architect John Weller is set on a spectacular 31,272 SF lot surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. Encompassing just over 5,000 SF, the home evokes the feeling of a serene modern “tree house,” where walls of glass, grand vaulted ceilings with wood beams, and an impressive coral-rock fireplace create warm yet striking living spaces filled with natural light. The distinctive floor plan features elegant formal living and dining spaces, a charming kitchen with breakfast area and generous pantry storage, and seamless connections to the expansive outdoor terraces and covered patios. A private upstairs level is dedicated to the tranquil primary suite and loft den, while three additional bedrooms are positioned along the west wing. Updated bathrooms, a spacious laundry room, and a 2-car garage complete the residence, while the serene pool area and verdant grounds provide an exceptional setting for both quiet relaxation and effortless entertaining in one of Coral Gables’ most coveted gated enclaves. Ideally located within the Pinecrest Elementary School boundaries near some of the area’s top private schools, including St. Thomas Episcopal Parish School and Gulliver Preparatory School.
