Miami Beach Manse Sets its Sail Headway For $22.5M | Waccabuc Real Estate

-


Location: Miami Beach, Fla.
Price: $22,500,000
The Skinny: New to market in Miami Beach is this slightly bizarro compound on guard-gated Hibiscus Island, which is asking $22.5M for six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and hundreds of square feet of sailcloth. The home, which Curbed has covered before but deems worth another shout-out as House of the Day sheerly for its strangeness, has 13,000 square feet of living space spread out over four different buildings connected by lengths of white cloth, which radiate out from a pillar atop the main house and run down to the various outbuildings. A tiered pool spans from the covered loggia of the home to the shore of Biscayne Bay, where there's 150 feet of water frontage for parking watercraft that won't fit inside the boathouse. Inside the home are beamed ceilings and an open kitchen and dining bar, featuring what has to be the worst set of deer antler barstools in the long, sordid history of bad bar stools. The home, which the brokerbabble notes "has been featured in multiple magazines, movies, and videos", last sold for $10.6M in 2008.

For doctors trying to reach their patients online, using Google+ can provide surprising marketing benefits that help them be more “findable” on the web. Consider that 44 percent of all Internet users search online to find information about health professionals, and suddenly the importance for doctors of having a good online presence should be more clear. In this article I’ll discuss three reasons why I think that, if you participate in Google+, the newest social network, you can improve the chances your name will come up when prospective patients search for something you’ve written about.
