The Sunset Islands home features a bathroom designed by Zaha Hadid
Developers Jackie Soffer and Craig Robins want to sell their Miami Beach mansion for $45 million.
The six-bedroom, six-bathroom, one-half-bathroom Sunset Islands home at 2511 Lake Avenue is on the market with Jill Hertzberg and Jill Eber of Coldwell Banker, a spokesperson for Jills Zeder Group confirmed. The Wall Street Journal first reported the listing.
Although home sales began to slow last year, many sellers are still testing the market with high asking prices. The top 10 listings in Miami Beach range from $40 million to $150 million, according to Realtor.com.
Soffer, CEO of Aventura-based Turnberry Associates, and Robins, CEO of Miami-based Dacra, have shared the home since they married in 2015. Records show Robins paid about $1.3 million for the 0.6 acre property, on Sunset Island II, in 1997;
The home was built in 1940 but has been expanded and renovated over the years, most recently in 2015, records show.
The 9,000 square foot mansion includes a swimming pool, outdoor dining and living areas, library, half basketball court. It has a custom all-white curvaceous bathroom designed by the late Zaha Hadid, a Pritzker Prize-winning architect who was close friends with Robins. Hadid, who designed the One Thousand Museum apartment tower in downtown Miami, died in Miami Beach in 2016.
Together, Soffer and Robins have six grown children — each had three from previous marriages. They want to sell the house because they are empty nesters and could move on to Robins’ upcoming condo development in Miami’s Design District, they told the Wall Street Journal.
Robins, with partners L Catterton Real Estate and Brookfield Properties, led the development of the Design District into a luxury retail and dining destination.
In December, the partnership joined with Qatari firm Constellation Hotels Holding, developer Nadim Ashi’s Fort Partners and New York-based private equity firm Raycliff Capital to buy more than 2.5 acres along Northeast 39th and 40th Street for an upscale mixed-use development that could include hotel and residential elements. They purchased the portfolio from Apollo Commercial Real Estate for approximately $165 million.
Fort Partners owns Four Seasons properties throughout South Florida and is known for developing the apartments and hotel at The Surf Club in Surfside, where a resale set a Miami-Dade County record per square foot last year for about $5,800 foot.
