Discover Villa De Casuarina at 221 Casuarina Concourse, a Mediterranean inspired waterfront estate in Coral Gables, featuring over 11,800 sq ft of architectural elegance, private dockage, and resort-style amenities. This Coral Gables luxury residence redefines design, privacy, and lifestyle.

A residence where architectural grandeur meets timeless craftsmanship. Villa De Casuarina stands as one of Coral Gables’ most distinguished properties. Nestled within the guard-gated community of Gables Estates, this waterfront estate captures the essence of South Florida luxury, combining privacy, sophistication, and design excellence in one incomparable address.

As a luxury real estate advisor at SERHANT. and featured agent on Seasons 1 and 2 of Netflix’s Owning Manhattan, Sarah Cotty specializes in design-driven marketing and luxury properties that blend architecture, lifestyle, and elevated storytelling.

Architectural Elegance

Built in 2000, this 11,847-square-foot masterpiece reimagines Mediterranean architecture through a contemporary lens. Entering through the grand foyer, visitors are greeted by soaring ceilings, imported Italian tilework, and intricate moldings that showcase true architectural discipline.

Inside, the residence balances formality and warmth. Expansive living areas flow naturally into intimate spaces, allowing for both large-scale entertaining and quiet family moments. The home features eight bedrooms and ten baths, each designed with tranquility and natural light in mind.

Interior Highlights

The formal dining room’s coffered ceilings and statement lighting create an ambiance of graceful living. A recently renovated chef’s kitchen is anchored by marble countertops, dual Sub-Zero refrigeration, and a Miele coffee station curated to balance gourmet precision with visual sophistication.

Beyond the kitchen, the home reveals a custom cedar-wood wine cellar (3,500 bottles capacity), private home theatre, and “disco lounge” bar for entertaining. These signature spaces embody what defines Miami luxury real estate today.

Outdoor Lifestyle & Waterfront Living

Spanning nearly one acre, Villa De Casuarina offers 388 feet of direct waterfrontage and a private dock built to accommodate a 60-foot yacht. Surrounding the home are lush gardens, a heated pool, and a summer kitchen that extend the living experience outdoors. Every terrace is oriented to capture soft north light and gentle canal breezes, transforming each day into a resort-style escape.

The Coral Gables Lifestyle

Few communities embody architectural integrity and prestige like Coral Gables. Gables Estates offers the ultimate in security and seclusion while remaining minutes from Coconut Grove’s boutique dining, the Biltmore Hotel, and Miami’s vibrant cultural scene. This balance of tranquil residential living and urban access makes it one of the most desirable addresses in South Florida.

The Legacy of Design

Homes like 221 Casuarina Concourse reveal that true luxury is defined as much by experience as by design. The estate’s visual harmony and architectural storytelling create emotional value that transcends square footage or market data. As a broker who specializes in design-driven marketing, I see Villa De Casuarina as a masterclass in how architecture and narrative build legacy. In the world of Coral Gables luxury real estate and Miami luxury homes, it remains a model of authenticity, privacy, and artful living. More than a residence, it is a canvas for a life beautifully designed.
