Located in the heart of Miami-Dade County, Pinecrest has quickly risen in the ranks of the most popular areas in Florida for luxury real estate.

With its suburban appeal and ease of access to Miami, it’s no wonder prominent Floridians are flocking to Pinecrest, including major athletes like the Miami Heat’s Tyler Herro, who just purchased a $10.5M home in the neighborhood with the help Brown Harris Stevens Agent Josie Wang, who held the listing at 1299 SW 63rd Avenue. The purchase signifies the highest-priced home sale ever recorded in Pinecrest.

“Pinecrest is an incredibly desirable destination for luxury home buyers and this home is truly the area’s crown jewel. The location offers proximity to Miami’s finest attractions, including marinas, top schools, dining, shopping and parks. The home is unrivaled in its design, craftsmanship and custom, top of the line finishes from lighting to millwork.” – Josie Wang, Brown Harris Stevens Agent

The home is outfitted with the finest, contemporary finishes and appliances. Its Epicurean gourmet kitchen offers panoramic views of the pool deck.

The home’s design is inspired by the natural beauty of Bali, as seen outside, where a resort-style swimming pool and spa are flanked by picturesque landscaping. There is also a cabana and a generously sized outdoor kitchen.

The expansive master suite includes an elegant sitting area and floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing for abundant natural light.

Additional highlights include a cinema-quality media room, custom millwork throughout, and an impressive wine cellar.

Herro recently made headlines for signing a four-year, $120M contract with the Miami Heat. He is not the first Heat player to call Pinecrest home; notable former residents include Jimmy Butler and Glen Rice.
