Related Group CEO and art collector Jorge M. Pérez has listed his home in Coconut Grove’s gated Hughes Cove neighborhood for $33 million.
Set on nearly an acre, Pérez purchased the land in May 1994 for $1.45 million and then built the three-story Venetian style house in 1996, spanning more than 10,000 square feet of interior space. The house boasts six bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and one half-bathroom. All levels are accessible via an elevator. Outside, there’s an infinity pool, a spa, a four-car garage, and a sitting area with firepit.
“This waterfront Venetian-style palazzo, situated on absolutely magnificent grounds, is truly an artistic masterpiece,” said Jill Hertzberg of The Jills Zeder Group, with whom with house is currently listed. “The beautiful landscaping and garden, the home’s desirable position on the cove, endless water views, and an infinity pool provide the best of Miami living. It is a private oasis in the heart of the city.”
Among art world collectors Pérez is known for his support of Latin American art and artists, as well as his local community. In December 2011, Pérez donated $35 million in cash and art to the Miami Art Museum towards its new building. The museum was renamed the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM). In recent years, he also donated $1 million to an open-call grant program for Miami and gifted $1.5 million in art and cash to Museo Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain.
Tucked into the verdant landscaping next to the garage, the striking white-marble abstract sculpture is Pablo Atchugarry’s Free Spirit (2011).
