November 26th, 2014

When you have as much ambition and dedication to real estate excellence as William Pierce, it is hard to avoid the media spotlight. His long record of listing and selling groundbreaking properties has made him a staple in hundreds of news outlets across the world.

Now, Southeast Florida’s No.1 Realtor is once again in the news for yet another ultra-luxurious listing: the stunning La Brisa Mansion, which at $65 million is the most expensive property on the market in Miami-Dade County.

Unsurprisingly, CBS 12 took notice of this record achievement and joined William for a vivid tour of this one-of-a-kind property.

As William rightly noted, “When you pass through front gates of La Brisa, you feel like you are transported back in time to the 1920s” – a testament to this property’s exceptional design and historic origins. Virtually unaltered since 1886, this stunning mansion is a rare remnant of the golden age of South Florida luxury real estate.

Located in the heart of Miami in Coconut Grove, its enormous 6.9-acre lot is secluded from street view and serves as the ultimate paradise enclave. This tranquil and picturesque sanctuary is lavishly landscaped with royal palms, royal poincianas, mahogany, banyans, oak, and gumbo limbo, many almost as old as the house itself.

Sitting atop an ancient coral reef that is 23 feet above sea level, La Brisa Mansion offers breathtaking panoramic views of Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, which can be enjoyed after passing through a verdant and pristine expanse of mangroves. Aside from 207 feet of prime waterfront, the mansion has to its north an 536-foot long canal with direct ocean access, whose private dock can accommodate the biggest mega-yachts.

In addition to its scenic beautiful, the sprawling backyard includes a large swimming pool and sunken fire pit, which are surrounded by a coral patio able to host 250 people.

La Brisa Mansion retains many of its original architectural features, including a multi-colored tile roof, original woodwork on the upper-floor galleries, exquisitely restored keystones above the entryways, arched doors and windows, and several wrought-iron and wood balconies

The mansion spans 17,141 square feet of living space, including 3,338 square feet of terraces and covered porches for enjoying its picturesque surroundings. Including a two-bedroom, Key West-style guest cottage, it has 9 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, and 3 half-bathrooms.

It is little wonder why William Pierce is so proud to be presenting this luxury masterpiece to the world. For more information on this incredible opportunity, call 954-648-3131.
