1253 Sorolla Ave

Behind wrought-iron gates on one of Coral Gables' finest streets stands a one-of-a-kind Mediterranean estate. Custom-built in 2002, this 6-BD, 6-BA masterpiece offers 6,887 SF on a 19,750 SF lot — where Old World grandeur meets South Florida resort living. A Moorish-arched portico leads to a breathtaking hand-carved lattice mahogany entry door beneath an amber lantern a work of art before you even step inside. The soaring octagonal rotunda beyond features a hand-painted sky mural, wrought-iron chandelier, travertine floors, coral stone columns, pecky cypress beam ceilings, and a monumental hand-carved travertine fireplace. The chef's kitchen opens to pool views. A full-width covered loggia with wood-plank ceiling bridges interior and exterior living seamlessly. The resort pool features LED lighting, a cascading waterfall wall, and a travertine deck surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. A private turf sports court and dedicated fitness room with all exercise equipment included complete this extraordinary compound. Two kids' suites connect through a shared loft play and study space — a magical private world for young ones. Six generous suites total, hand-painted ceiling murals, Portuguese-tile baths, and rich mahogany millwork throughout. Minutes to Miracle Mile, Merrick Park, and MIA.
