Many people aspire to have homes on Fisher Island, the most expensive zip code in the United States and why shouldn’t they? Even by Miami’s luxurious & amenity-rich standards, Fisher Island represents the pinnacle of wealth. Essentially, it is an opulent town that is only accessible by private yacht or automobile ferry. There is a private marina, a mega-yacht marina, a police station, a school, a market, a private club, a sports club and spa, a serviced private beach, and a golf club. The homes are expansive condominiums boasting sweeping views, top-level security, and all of the privacy that money can buy. There is even a development that requires potential owners to be invited to consider purchasing a residence there. The only thing that has been missing is single family custom-built residences… until now.
The Links Estates
Located along the fareway on the north side of the island is a row of 12 build sites for private homes, or Villas as they are called. Each of the custom mansions has contemporary floor plans to maximize the space of each build site. They all offer integrated pools, Euopean designed kitchens, luxuriously appointed bathrooms, private elevators as well as private terraces overlooking the island, golfing, cruise ships entering and exiting the Port of Miami, the Miami Beach and the Downtown Miami skylines.
All of the islands amenities are available to the owners, including access to the private aviary, the tennis club that boasts each type of course material, the private club with a formal restaurant, waterfront al fresco dining, a club pool, wellness center, world class spa and a staffed beach club that rivals those from the Netflix sensation, The White Lotus.
When sales were launched in the summer of 2022, four of the build sites were pre-sold with an average price of $33 million. Each of the homes averages 10,000 square feet with current pricing starting at $3,300/square foot. The 12 build sites are each 1/3-1/2 acre.
The Amenities of Fisher Island
While many may gawk at the pricing and exclusive “stealth wealth” level amenities on the island, once you review the offerings of the area, you begin to notice that the money spent is a very reasonable price. Scroll through these photos and see just a preview of what is offered including a historic Vanderbilt mansion that is now utilized as a clubhouse.
With so many amenities, we will wait until tomorrow to delve into Estate 5, which is situated on nearly a half acre overlooking the lake.
