Florida luxury home listings hit new highs. Here’s what to know

Florida’s luxury real estate market is making headlines with record-breaking listings across Miami-Dade and the Gulf Coast. From a $237 million Key Biscayne estate to a sprawling tropical farm, these properties showcase the region’s high-end appeal.

Here are key takeaways:

Scarface mansion: A Key Biscayne waterfront estate where parts of “Scarface” was filmed hit the market for $237 million, which would make it the most expensive home sale in Miami-Dade County if it sells near asking price. The 2.38-acre property at 485 W. Matheson Dr. was once part of President Richard Nixon’s “winter White House” compound, and the current home was built in 1981 and used as drug lord Frank Lopez’s home in the 1983 film.

Pinecrest: A seven-bedroom Pinecrest home at 6701 SW 101st St. is listed for $25 million — the most expensive ever in Pinecrest — and features a putting green with sand trap and a 70-foot pool with Indonesian tile. Pinecrest has transformed from a sleepy, but affluent community into a luxury destination, attracting wealthy buyers seeking more space than Miami Beach, Coconut Grove or Coral Gables typically offer

South Miami-Dade: David Wallack, CEO of Mango’s Tropical Cafe, listed his 14.4-acre Breezy Oaks estate for $18 million, featuring three freshwater coral rock grottoes and a grove of mango, citrus and avocado trees.

Gulf Coast: A gated riverfront estate in Bradenton on Florida’s Gulf Coast went under contract for $5.35 million, with nearly 7,700 square feet along the Manatee River.
