About this home
A rare opportunity to own one of just 17 historic landmark residences in Coral Gables’ prestigious Italian Village. Inspired by traditional Italian farmhouses and designed by acclaimed architect Robert Weed Law, this gated Mediterranean Revival estate embodies the architectural vision of city founder George Merrick and the timeless elegance of “The City Beautiful.” Rich in history and distinction, the property was once owned by former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, connecting this remarkable residence to American presidential history. Beyond its charming Chicago brick courtyard, a sun-drenched entry welcomes you into beautifully updated interiors that seamlessly blend historic character with modern comfort. Bright, open living spaces offer effortless flow for everyday living and entertaining, extending into a secluded rear courtyard ideal for outdoor gatherings. A detached 550-square-foot, one-bedroom, one-bath guest cottage provides exceptional versatility for extended family, visitors, a home office, or creative studio. A separate garage and significant recent upgrades further enhance the property's appeal and ease of ownership. Nestled within one of Coral Gables’ most coveted historic neighborhoods, this architectural treasure offers more than luxury living. It is a rare opportunity to become part of the enduring legacy of Coral Gables.

Before You Make an Offer
Your Buyer May Already Be Working With BreakThru Realty
Buyers come to BreakThru Realty searching for homes like this one, and many have shared their exact requirements with us: the neighborhood, the price, the bedrooms, the pool, the timing. If you own a home nearby and are weighing a sale, a broker can check it against those requirements before you list, and if no buyer on file fits, show you how we would reach the rest of the market.
BreakThru Realty works with hundreds of prequalified buyers searching for properties. Before you list, a broker reviews what you own, the market around it and whether an existing buyer's requirements match. If none does, you see how we would position it to reach other qualified buyers.

A potential match is a conversation, not an offer, until the buyer sees your property and makes one. No buyer is named and nothing about your property or business is shared until you decide to proceed.
