This Star Island mansion has a new owner.

Just four months after it was listed, the Star Island property known as ‘Villa Lourdes’ has sold for $75 million through Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Florida Realty. At that price tag, this property becomes one of the most significant in Miami-Dade County and the highest priced sale in the area. This price, however, is high for a reason. With sweeping unobstructed views of the Miami skyline, this ultra-exclusive property provides residents with a one-of-a-kind view. The blue waters of Biscayne Bay surround the island, with this property holding 100 feet of the direct waterfront. Even though it may appear as a getaway in the middle of Miami, Star Island still has easy access to Miami’s financial district, South Beach’s nightlight, and downtown Miami. Inside the over 20,000 sqft residence is a blend of Old World charm and modern technology. Tall 30-foot ceilings make way for Tuscan columns while marble and wood floors rest underneath. Other notable features of the residence also include a library, Florida room, home gym, elevator, commercial generator, full-size bar, and more.

Nestled along 18 miles of Texas shoreline is a coastal town where the vibe is laid-back and the lifestyle is easygoing. Set against a backdrop of warm Gulf water and soft Texas sand lies the epitome of island life, filled with an unlimited range of recreational opportunities from sport fishing to dolphin watching and from seaside golf to boutique shopping. Known as ‘Port A’ to locals, this casual beach community provides the perfect setting for an 8,099-square-foot wonder that combines the best of island life with the finest luxury accoutrements.

Designed to withstand the forces of nature, the Ocean View Estate was built with construction elements of a magnitude not often found in coastal properties. In addition to being highly energy efficient, the structure is hurricane and flood resistant and is equipped with a back-up power system.

Superior craftsmanship and extraordinary appointments continue throughout the three-story residence. Meticulously planned to the smallest detail, the sprawling layout has been artistically arrayed with reclaimed oak wood floors, a hand-hammered brass sink from Istanbul, walnut fireplace mantle from Brazil, alder wood cabinetry and doors, custom wine room and more.

Beyond the massive hand-carved double doors on the first level are three bedrooms, kitchen and dining area creating an ideal space for overnight guests. An expansive master suite on the second floor holds the key to rejuvenation with a bathroom lavishly outfitted with spa-like features.

A well-proportioned kitchen on the third level is styled to meet the needs of the most demanding chef and includes a one-of-a-kind marble sink from India. Most impressive is the fourth level observation deck affording the finest 360-degree views anywhere in Port A, with vistas of the island, beach and shipping channel.

Augmenting the main residence are a six-car garage and a spacious apartment comprising a full kitchen, game room and a theater. This resort-style offering is the perfect family compound, corporate retreat or vacation getaway. The six-bedroom layout sleeps 16 and the relaxing warmth of the beach is just a two-minute walk away.

MacDonald Highlands is known for its sweeping mountainside views of Las Vegas and Henderson, but few homes in the guard-gated community take advantage of the elevated topography quite like the residence of Mike and Linda Huhn on Dragon Ridge Drive. Designed and built by Blue Heron, the estate welcomes guests with a twisting driveway that passes between three separate structures that together form a bold and striking desert compound, mixing all the elements desired for a luxury lifestyle.

“You can look up to the hills and see this home, so we wanted something that appeared iconic and strong from a distance,” says Blue Heron founder Tyler Jones. “We could’ve combined all the spaces into one big structure, but by breaking into three components, you’re surrounded by interesting forms and shapes.”

An elevator travels between the four floors of the main living quarters with the words PLAY, EAT, SLEEP and VIEW in place of numerals on the buttons. It’s a fun modification that represents the broad purposes of different spaces, yet the home carries subtle complexities beneath its sleek ultra-modern design. “There are steel louvers that are unique to this project,” says Jones. “The glass is very specific. There’s a staircase designed just for this home with an interesting steel mesh. There are a lot of wood tones and organic materials.”


A magnificent home of timeless elegance and quality, paired with a gorgeously secluded property, rare even for New Canaan. Extensively updated to near-new status, soaring 10-foot ceilings, oversized French doors and windows, sun-drenched huge rooms and innumerable details of exquisite craftsmanship and superior construction. Multiple amazing outdoor settings, 47-foot veranda, sweeping lawns, naturally concealed pool area and even a hidden campground/walking trails assure your stress-free lifestyle.


Wright’s FINAL DESIGN in Phoenix: The Circular Sun House designed by Frank Lloyd Wright – Norman Lyke’s House, was built in 1967. Designed to blend in with the curves of the surrounding desert mountain, this iconic masterpiece was the last home designed by Wright and one of only 14 circular homes. Overlapping concentric circles create a floor plan that flows seamlessly from one room to another, while every room takes in unobstructed majestic views. Sprawling entertaining spaces flow outside to ample patios and a crescent-shaped pool.

By Linde Hyder – Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life to a lakeside retreat that is as unique as the area in which it is quietly tucked away. Wake up to the sounds of birds calling and gaze upon natural surroundings untouched by development. Cozy up to the fire at the end of a memorable day spent fishing for walleye and kayaking along pristine waters. Boasting 254 feet of lake frontage, this peaceful sanctuary invites you to get away from it all, relax and recharge.

Constructed entirely of full-length logs for premium strength and durability, this distinguished home was built in British Columbia to the owners’ exacting specifications and moved to its present location on 1.57 acres overlooking Lawrence Lake. Strategically positioned to capitalize on its natural surroundings, the Scandinavian design affords panoramic views throughout its two levels creating a setting of warmth and welcome in its interior spaces. Equally impressive is the attention to detail reflected in the careful selection of high-quality finishes.

The focal point of the three-bedroom, three-and-one-half-bathroom layout is undoubtedly the two-story stone fireplace in the living room, which is further enhanced by a soaring wall of glass that provides panoramic views of the tranquil setting. Upstairs, a soapstone stove imported from Denmark
makes the loft an inviting space, while private balconies provide a welcome respite for the guest bedroom and master suite. Additional special features include quartz countertops in all bathrooms and the generously-sized kitchen, screen-enclosed four-season porch, finished basement with heated floor and a heated two-car garage.

This lakefront getaway is truly a one-of-a-kind offering, according to Jeff Shadick, Broker/Owner at Special Properties of Green Lake. A real estate professional since 1994, Jeff specializes in luxury waterfront properties on Green Lake and neighboring resort communities, conveniently located near Madison, WI, and three hours away from Chicago, IL.
