This $10.9 M waterfront mansion on Miami Beach’s exclusive, ultra-private Hibiscus Island was designed for entertaining, which may not be a coincidence given that its architect, John Turchin, was instrumental in establishing Miami’s nightlife.

The eccentric home was constructed by Turchin in 2003 with the intention of combining old-world design with modern amenities. Taking inspiration from Grecian pools, he designed a double-decker pool and cascades with stone footbridges, moats, and a spiral staircase that descends directly into the water. In addition to the ample space available on the pool deck, partygoers can continue the festivities on the rooftop terrace, which features a 50-foot captain’s watchtower and windmill-like boat sails for shelter. From the swimming pool, you can see Biscayne Bay, and from the rooftop, you can see Star and Palm Islands.

The eclectic interior design of the 19,000-square-foot home draws inspiration from the Keys, the Far East, the Wild West, and Hollywood. Think beach-kitsch, seashell-shaped bathrooms with embedded shells, elkhorn and alligator-print leather bar stools at the kitchen island, a steel ventilation hood over the range meant to be a whimsical take on the Tin Man’s hat from The Wizard of Oz, and an Indonesian-inspired lounge area.

The white walls and dome-shaped ceilings have a motif and design reminiscent of both Greek islands and Morocco. Covered loggias facilitate the blending of the indoors and outdoors and lead to a pool house. The listing also includes 150 feet of water frontage and a yacht-sized dock with a captain’s house that is furnished with a bathroom and kitchenette.
