The latest record-breaking sale in Miami real estate: A buyer from New York closed on a $60 million penthouse unit at the Faena House on Miami Beach.
The Faena House is an ultra-luxury residential condo project stretching from 3200 to 3500 Collins Avenue. Envisioned by Alan Faena and designed by internationally renowned architects Foster + Partners, it has been the center of a lot of media coverage lately. The Faena District is Faena’s first project in Miami Beach and is a massive $1 billion-plus development, unusual in its scale for such a mature and developed urban destination. When complete, the project will include four residential towers, two hotels, a garage, retail shops, a marina, and an arts complex by Rem Koolhaas’s firm, OMA.
Many of the sales could be contributed to word of mouth and being in the know. The building had such a strong selling momentum that many units sold before traditional marketing and advertising could be implemented. Some of the famous buyers include Lloyd Blankfein, the CEO and chairman of Goldman Sachs; the Fanjul family, owners of a sugar and real estate conglomerate; British billionaire Alan Howard; Kenneth Griffin of Citadel; and Mark Rachesky, chairman of Lions Gate Entertainment.
With a demanding and powerful buyer group, Faena has spared no expense on the project. Faena House is a vision of true indoor and outdoor living — creatively designed and constructed, with no detail left behind. Foster + Partners collaborated with Molteni Dada on custom kitchens and Permasteelisa on custom bathrooms to create a distinctive and unparalleled design. Each residence features a majestic outdoor living terrace, known in Argentina as an “alero,” that wraps around its interior.
Faena’s new neighborhood will surely become the international center for cultural activity and leisure.
