The Story: “Inspired by one of my favorite artists, Emilio Sanchez, I designed and built an island-style home. The house was designed to capture island breezes and natural light. The City of Key Biscayne has put the house on its tour. A creative director from one of the big fashion labels fell in love with the house, but mostly with the lifestyle depicted in the photos. A shot of the family dog, fishing poles by the front door, bongos and musical instruments, and a fresh fish frying in the backyard gazebo are what really sold the house!”

The Home: 300 Greenwood Drive, Key Biscayne

The Price: $2,250,000
