Step into another world as you enter the penthouse at the Four Seasons Residences at The Surf Club—an oceanfront home that defies expectations and redefines luxury.
With 7,287 square feet of interior space and 6,899 square feet of private exterior space across three stories, this penthouse offers a cleverly designed layout for expansive living. The floor-to-ceiling glass walls seamlessly open to the large-scale wraparound terrace. This design effortlessly merges the indoors with the outdoors, inviting the soothing salty oceanfront air to fill the home and flooding the interiors with luminous natural light.
After purchasing the Four Seasons Surfside penthouse as a relatively raw space, the owners enlisted the highly acclaimed San Francisco-based designer Orlando Diaz-Azcuy of ODADA. Diaz-Azcuy transformed the residence into a tranquil haven that prioritizes natural light and impressive volume. He remastered the original interior layout, preserving the natural airiness of the space while ensuring privacy. Pritzker-Prize-winning architect Richard Meier had originally reimagined The Surf Club’s iconic presence to fit the Four Seasons Hotel and Residences.
The lower level of the residence, positioned on the 11th floor of the complex, accommodates all common rooms, including the main living and dining areas. These spaces align parallel to the sandy shoreline below, providing breathtaking ocean views. Designed to be open and expansive, custom millwork and gallery-like interior walls adorn the common areas, effortlessly combining contemporary convenience with daily comfort.
The kitchen exceptionally merges luxury form with smart function. This culinary masterpiece comes equipped with Boffi cabinetry, a Viking oven and range, a Subzero refrigerator and freezer, and dual Miele dishwashers. Additional features include ample custom cabinetry, a dedicated wine fridge, and a hidden coffee bar. Adjacent to the kitchen, separate back-of-house quarters cater discreetly to staff needs, ensuring impeccable service regardless of the number of guests being entertained.
On the upper level, the primary suite takes center stage. It features immaculate views and a chic bathroom clad in stunning white onyx, a freestanding soaking tub, and an oversized shower for a luxurious retreat. Also included are an additional four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, four half bathrooms, and a dedicated gym that could easily be utilized as a sixth bedroom. Every room, outfitted to the highest degree of design, provides every opportunity to comfortably host family and friends.
Unique to the residence is a 75-foot private rooftop pool with a partially covered sun deck, a lush garden, a dedicated massage/spa parlor, a fully equipped gym, and a serene yoga room that also showcases enchanting oceanfront views. And, as part of The Four Seasons Residences at The Surf Club, residents have the opportunity to enjoy all of the five-star amenities provided by the complex. These include pool and beachside service, a personal oceanfront cabana, reserved interior parking, a state-of-the-art health and wellness center, renowned dining experiences, top-notch security, and 24-hour concierge services.
The epic Four Seasons Surfside penthouse, offered for the first time since its redesign, lists at a cool $55 million to secure the space. The Miami power duo Eloy Carmenate and Mick Duchon of The Corcoran Group is representing the property.
