Villa Valentino In Coconut Grove Just Reduced By $500,000
July 15th, 2009 categories: Coconut Grove Real Estate
Suffering from a bit of the summer doldrums and writer’s block, I’ve been away from the blog for a couple of days. Not to worry, I am back now and ready to write. Here it goes…
Villa Valentino (1855 South Bayshore Drive) was open today for Brokers, and I couldn’t help but taking yet another tour of the property. All of you Coconut Grove residents have driven by this house a million times, it sits across the street from the entrance to Grove Isle. I wrote about the estate almost a year ago (Villas in Coconut Grove) when it was priced at $3,500,000. The price has just dropped to $2,994,500. Being a lover of beautiful landscaping, I can say that this house is home to one of the best gardens in Coconut Grove. The house was built in 1910 and has been carefully restored. There are pecky-cypress ceilings, impact windows and doors, an exotic pool with cascading spa and two separate guest cottages. Total, the home has 11 bedrooms, 7 full baths and 2 half baths. It is perfect for someone who has frequent guests.
Other Features Include:
- 25,000 square foot lot
- 8,155 square foot living space
- Located on top of Coconut Grove’s Coral Rock Bluff
- Bay and Garden Views
- Patio features a new pool with summer kitchen
