Tommy Hilfiger’s Extravagant Golden Beach Residence Is Now Asking $23.5 Million

Dima Vitanova — Fri, 23 Feb 2018 17:16:43 +0000

Few abodes are as lavish, eccentric and downright bewitching as Tommy Hilfiger’s residence in upscale Golden Beach. And the best part, yet – it can be yours for $23.5 million.

The roughly 14,000-square-foot mansion, whose backyard morphs into the ocean, is among the priciest in Golden Beach, even after a recent price drop of $4 million from its original $27.5 million.

A giant canvas of 1970s pop-art designs, the home has harbored the fashion mogul and his wife Dee Ocleppo’s extensive art collection, which has been reported to include pieces by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Marc Quinn, Damien Hirst and Bert Stern.

The residence, whose splendor filled the pages of Architectural Digest in late 2016, is a true piece of art in itself, ingeniously designed by Martyn Lawrence Bullard to reflect the sensitivities of legends like Andy Warhol and Keith Haring.

The 7-bedroom, 12-bathroom home features a geometric black-and-white kitchen, a crimson-red home theater, a red-white-and-blue fitness/game room, a living room carpeted by a hair-on-hide rug, several guest quarters covered in fruity scratch-and-sniff wallpapers, and a sinuous staircase anchored by a giant, glimmering statue of Micky Mouse.

Hilfiger and his wife purchased the property in 2013 for a little over $17 million. Back then, The Jills, Florida’s top luxury real estate team as ranked by WSJ, sold the estate to the couple. Today, Jill Hertzberg and Jill Eber are the listing agents for 605 Ocean Boulevard once again.

“The home will attract a buyer with impeccable taste who appreciates luxurious finishes, who will enjoy the different spaces that the home offers such as the movie theatre, built-in bar area right off the formal dining room, the multiple guest apartments and of course the oceanfront playground they have at their fingertips,” said Hertzberg.

Despite the wow-factor floor plan, which can feel more like a dazzling showcase of upscale furniture and finishes than a family home, it can still exude a sense of privacy and intimacy. Especially so in the splendid master bedroom and backyard, which vie for the top spot on Hertzberg’s list of favorite home spaces.

“In the backyard you can relax and reflect, enjoy a day in the pool or beachside with your kids or even entertain 200 guests,” she said. “The master bedroom is tied for my favorite, because it overlooks the beautiful blue ocean and offers so many amenities – a separate living area, his and hers bathrooms and walk-in closets, an office and a balcony with a spa that boasts million-dollar views.”

A one-of-a-kind, rare-to-find house, which seems to harbor an architectural likeness to its famed owner’s vision, 605 Ocean Boulevard “will attract someone who wants to have fun and live a wonderful life,” said Hertzberg.

Haute Living’s Real Estate Summit Miami 2013

Hadley Henriette — Thu, 12 Sep 2013 15:32:27 +0000

Haute Living hosted Real Estate Summit Miami 2013, successfully bringing all the biggest names in Miami real estate together under one roof. The lux event took place in the ballroom of the W South Beach and brought out star developers and brokers for interactive round-table discussions before an audience of ticketed attendees who were treated to breakfast and lunch. Expert lobbyist and strategist Seth Gordon posed questions to mega-developers Edgardo Defortuna, David Martin, Don Peebles, Ugo Colombo, Gil Dezer and Carlos Rosso, who gave their take on Miami’s red-hot real estate market.

David Martin, Edgardo Defortuna, Gil Dezer, Ugo Colombo, R. Donahue Peebles and Carlos Rosso

One subject on everybody's mind? The influx of celebrity-architect designed new buildings. Edgardo Defortuna, famous for the Jade buildings, explained, “It’s not about how much money I’m going to get because I’m hiring Herzog and de Meuron, it’s about the experience of the buyer when they live there. I don’t think we have yet lived that. When those buildings are completed people are going to realize how different it is to use great firms with great minds.”

“The market has matured," added David Martin whose firm Terra Group is working on unique property Grove at Grand Bay with Bjarke Ingels. "Now everybody has different “starchitects” and designers and now we’re seeing unique properties where we almost can’t compare one to another and that’s making it an interesting market. Now the buyers really have a lot to look at, a lot to learn and a lot to study before they buy.”

Don Peebles, who is committing to new projects in Miami, emphasized the need to bring talent and finance corporations from New York, while surprising topics were discussed such as improving the cities green space, public transportation and even required parking specs per unit. “The parking of 500 Brickell is 8 stories high,” said Carlos Rosso. “This is real estate that has been given away to the car. The city doesn’t make a dime in taxes and we have to build it. It’s not the best approach. I think it’s going to be more about car storage than parking.” To which Gil Dezer, developer of the ground-breaking Porsche Design Tower commented, “If everybody just parked in their apartment, we wouldn’t have this problem,” making the room erupt with laughter.

Jorge Perez and Kamal Hotchandani

Haute Living Publisher and CEO Kamal Hotchandani flew in from New York to present Jorge Perez of The Related Group with the magazine's first Tony Goldman Lifetime Visionary Award. Perez pointed out that Goldman was a dear friend and that he was honored to accept an award bearing his name. He also had some words of wisdom for the developers, brokers and realtors in the room, "We are in the throws of another great upturn. Florida has been known for great booms and busts and we need to moderate that. How do we not get so enthusiastic again and then three years from now think, 'Why did I do this?' and [have to] reach for the Alka-Seltzer."

Haute Magazine Real Estate Summit at the W Hotel South Beach

After a sumptuous lunch with the attendees, brokers and developers, the room reconvened for a quick presentation of Beach House 8 by Daniella Bonetti and then the broker’s panel. It was comprised of big name Miami brokers Oliver Ruiz, of Engel Völkers, Jill Eber and Jill Hertzberg of The Jills, Diane Lieberman of SBI, Alicia Cervera of Cervera Realty, Dora Puig of PuigWerner Craig Studnicky of ISG and Jorge Uribe of Sotheby's International Realty. On the docket? Hot tips on undervalued areas like the Bay Harbour Islands, Marketing Miami, how to improve appraisals and justify new pricing. “Things are lending a more ethical way and that allows them to go into a building and know it’s not all speculators and pay those dollars because they feel that it’s warranted. You have to give them the knowledge to understand why they are paying a premium over the last five comps,” explained Jill Eber during the discussion. Each panelist received a private day charter on Ferretti Yacht from sponsor Ferretti Group.
