Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate’s Mimi G. Stewart Lists Coral Gables Estate on Old Cutler Road (Built in 1926, sits on 1.42-acre lot on one of Coral Gables’ most prestigious streets)
CORAL GABLES, FL (August 24, 2015) — Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate sales associate Mimi G. Stewart, of the Coral Gables office, has just listed a magnificent property – a 1920s-era mansion nestled on 1.42 acres in a prime location on Coral Gables’ prestigious Old Cutler Road. Presented for $3.95 million, the property, located at 7601 Old Cutler Road, offers the rare combination of an ideal setting with history and charm.
The home was originally designed and built as the seasonal residence of a member of one of Chicago’s most prominent families, William G. McCormick. Though it has been meticulously and thoughtfully updated over the years, the property’s classic architectural details and exceptional craftsmanship remain evident throughout.
“It is extremely rare to find a home of this caliber on this amount of land in Coral Gables,” noted Stewart. “The residence, in the style of a classic Italian villa, is surrounded by lush, manicured grounds making it feel like an estate of another era. It is an absolutely superlative property.”
The home sits at the back of the expansive grounds behind a reflecting pool and rows of towering palms, creating a dramatic and palatial entrance. Native coral stone highlights both the home’s front façade and the rear patio surrounding the swimming pool. Mature tropical vegetation all around provides both natural beauty and a feeling of seclusion.
The home’s 4,740-square-foot interior is bright and wonderfully proportioned, with 12-foot first floor and 10-foot second floor ceilings adding to the sense of space. Arched windows and doorways, stone and hardwood flooring, marble bathrooms and a hand-carved cypress ceiling in the upstairs loggia are among the notable details.
Charlette Seidel, branch manager of Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate’s Coral Gables office, listed and sold the home in 1978, when she was an agent.
“The home was incredible back in 1978, and has become even more special over time,” remarked Seidel. “The homeowners have been loving caretakers to this spectacular estate, and Coldwell Banker is honored to once again be entrusted with its sale.”
