very exciting new chapter for Unique Homes: The introduction of the premier edition of Unique
Homes China.
To anyone who follows the high-end residential market and has a sense of recent trends,
such an endeavor comes as no surprise. In light of the tremendous growth of the Chinese as buyers
of luxury property all over the world, we decided Unique Homes needed a presence in China. So,
we are proud to announce our role as a partner in bringing luxury to the affluent Chinese audience
with the launch of Unique Homes China.
The inaugural edition (pictured below) includes 100 pages of world-class listings from top
luxury specialists from around the globe. You can view the digital edition of Unique Homes China

BLACK HILLS LUXURY
COVER SHOWCASE
ork of art is often tossed about in descriptions of luxury properties, but there is no hyperbole when this phrase
is applied to the residence featured on our cover, which, upon completion, achieved immediate status as an icon
of contemporary architecture.
One of Southern California’s most singular properties, it is a prime example of the way structure, landscape and
setting can work together to create a stunning estate and matchless experience. The home is designed to capture
spectacular views over Santa Monica Canyon to the blue of the ocean offered by the Pacifc Palisades location.
Inside, architects Richard Keating and Steven Giannetti have orchestrated an even more impressive panorama.
Ceilings soar to 26 feet. Well-positioned expanses of glass frame tableaus of Calvin Abe’s intuitive landscape, while
pocket doors open to outdoor rooms. Ample interior wall space becomes an ideal canvas to showcase art. Through-
out, curves in a sculptural ceiling, the glass wall of the dining room and along the edge of a balcony enhance the
geometry of the residence, where light is transformed into an equally important architectural element. The foor
plan is excellent and the scale, with wide hallways, wonderful. Exquisite fnishes, artistic freplaces and proportions
that invite livability only heighten the architectural symphony.
The practical is never far away here, as is luxury. All the systems are commercial. The kitchen easily accom-
modates a staff, but has convivial places to gather. The master suite — extensive, private and indulgent — looks
out onto some of the property’s most spectacular ocean views.
“Finding so many outstanding features and such exceptional materials is in itself rare,” explains Joyce Rey,
executive director of Coldwell Banker Previews International, who is listing the estate for $19.8 million. Add in
exciting and dynamic architecture, and the appellations masterpiece and work of art become an understatement.

COVER SHOWCASE
Conceived by Richard Keating and brought to life by residential architect Steven
Giannetti, this great estate draws comparisons to the Getty Center for its con-
struction and for its overwhelming sense of serenity and permanence. Interiors
of the residence echo a museum ambiance with ceilings soaring to 26 feet and
galleries with 8-foot-wide hallways. Generously proportioned at approximately
14,645 square feet, and offering 4 bedrooms plus a maid’s room and 7.5 baths,
the home artfully invites the outdoors in through foor-to-ceiling windows, ex-
pansive glass pocket doors, serene water fountains and covered lanais. The estate
beautifully accommodates day-to-day living in uncompromising style and luxury,
as well as sophisticated entertaining with a Venetian-inspired wine cellar, featur-
ing a tasting room and separate storage cellar that can accommodate a total of
10,000 bottles. The architect’s eye for quality and exquisite detail is evident at
every turn, executed in Portuguese limestone, stainless steel components, rift-cut
oak cabinetry and custom freplaces by famed L.A. artist Laddie John Dill. The
harmonious landscaping by Calvin Abe brings further inspiration for entertain-
ing, as does the outdoor room, surrounded by ponds, a lap pool and a spa.

Country star Glen Campbell recently listed his
6,540-square-foot Malibu mansion for $3.995 million.
The entertainer might sing about rolling plains and
prairies, but his 5-acre home boasts ocean, mountain
and canyon views. Campbell’s wife, Kim, who stud-
ied interior design at UCLA Extension, designed the
interior of the home to reﬂect a Mediterranean style.
Each bedroom upstairs has its own balcony — Glenn
and Kim’s favorite feature of the home — where they
enjoy sunrises and sunsets, entertain guests or relax
together, according to Kim. The home also features a
grand 32-by-27-foot round room with 8 picture win-
dows divided by a stone ﬁreplace.

ALBANIA
BAHAMAS
DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
VIETNAM
Due to a change in government, Albania’s tourism industry is expected to
take of in the near future, according to a report by AB Property Market-
ing, Ltd.
Albania is visited annually by 4.7 million tourists, accounting for
€580 million, or 6.2 percent of total GDP. With Albania’s new prime min-
ister, Socialist Edi Rama, comes a new focus to transform the economy
and achieve greater integration
with the European Union. Accord-
ing to the report, tourism is fore-
casted to rise by 5.4 percent per
annum to €1.03 billion by 2022,
providing the economic stability
Albania needs to become a poten-
tial EU candidate country.
Tis increase will improve
the nation’s economy and also
spur its emerging holiday home market, as tourists look to make their
stays more permanent.
An elite collection of 284 private residences at Baha Mar, the $3.5 bil-
lion luxury resort located in the Bahamas, is scheduled to open in
December 2014.
Te resort, set on 3,000 feet of white-sand beach and turquoise water,
encompasses four hotels: Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, Mondrian, Grand
Hyatt and Baha Mar Casino and Hotel, each ofering unique properties.
Te properties range from one-, two- and three-bedroom homes, as
well as four-bedroom beach villas.
Each one features a private terrace
to maximize the views. Ameni-
ties such as a pool, lounge and spa
access are also available to resi-
dence owners. Additionally, the
resort ofers gaming, entertainment,
shopping, and natural attractions.
Residences are priced from
$1.5 million and owners may elect to keep the residences for their exclu-
sive use or rent them.
For those looking to purchase property in the Dominican Republic,
Puerto Plata has been determined as the most popular place on the
island, accounting for over three-quarters of inquiries, according to
TeMoveChannel.com.
Te northern province, known for its
stunning beaches, attracted 76.85 percent of
the site’s Dominican Republic inquiries, nearly
four times as many as its closest contender.
Santo Domingo, the second most popular area,
accounted for 19.36 percent of inquires. Fol-
lowing Santo Domingo were La Vega, Samaná,
Distrito Nacional and La Altagracia.
Ivan Radford, editor of TeMoveChannel.
com, compares Puerto Plata’s international
popularity to that of Florida’s in the U.S.
“Known around the world for beaches
such as Playa Dorada, it is no wonder that the coastal province domi-
nates buyer demand,” said Radford.
Dalat is seeing a revival of the luxury French villas that once peppered its
hillsides 75 years ago.
Vietnamese entrepreneur Le Ngoc Khanh Tam is heading this devel-
opment with La Vallee de Dalat, a budding neighborhood with views that
have been drawing people to the area since
the 1930s.
“For the majority of people we show
the property to, the frst word out of their
mouth is ‘wow,’” said Le Tam.
Te area is near the historic Bao Dai
Palace II, one of several grand palaces
erected for the last emperor of Vietnam.
Even today, the ridge line that Bao Dai
Palace II and La Vallee de Dalat occupy is
referred to as the “King’s Land” by locals.
“It’s good to be the king,” said Barry
Israel, Le Tam’s husband. “But if you can’t be the king, you can still live like
one … at La Vallee de Dalat.”

The New Way to Holiday?
By Camilla McLaughlin
Before the world economy tanked, fractional
ownership developments and destination clubs
were gaining traction, offering consumers new
ways to experience luxury vacations. Now, these
options — and others like it — are returning.
new alternatives provide innovative options for luxury
vacations, but a few also represent a way for property
owners to make even better use of an investment in a
resort home. All are finding favor with value-conscious
upscale consumers.
“Second homes are costly assets, requiring 12
months of expense without 12 months of use. Their
owners will frequently journey to the same destination
to justify their investment, rather than exploring new
places,” observes Wade Shealy, CEO of 3RD HOME,
an exchange program for luxury properties, which he
founded in 2010. “We created 3RD HOME to fill a need
expressed by the most discerning individuals to find a
desirable, safe and trustworthy way to expand the use
of these residences.”
Unlike other exchange programs, Shealy main-
tains, 3RD HOME is ideally suited to the luxury sec-
ond-home owner. “We only accept well-appointed luxury
second homes. We don’t require direct or simultaneous
exchanges, alleviating the need to find a willing trader
Some offer a less costly — but equally desirable —
version of Destination Clubs. Another gives owners of
high-end resort properties a way to use other prime resi-
dences worldwide without a substantial monetary outlay.
Still, others focus on luxury rentals. Not only do these
“Cost commensurate with usage”
was the mantra of the fractional or
shared ownership industry, which
flourished when prices of resort
homes skyrocketed, and time on the
market numbered in days or weeks.
Today, with the first glimmers of
revived demand for vacation homes
in evidence, that same concept is
driving some of the newest offerings
in the resort marketplace.
that is customary in the industry. When members make
weeks in their homes available for others’ use, they
earn Keys, which can be used as currency to imme-
diately reserve any available home at any time — day
or night.” 3RD HOME’s inventory is extensive — more
than 1,300 properties in 66 countries with an average
value of $2.25 million.
The timing for an arrangement such as 3RD HOME
couldn’t be better, he claims. “The downturn in the
economy caused a multitude of second-home owners to
consider new opportunities to optimize the potential of
their real estate asset. These second homes are costly
to maintain, and in many cases are worth much less
now than when originally purchased. Owners have lost
the motivation to sell, and at the same time are looking
for new ways to get value from their investment. They
feel increasingly guilty when they choose to travel to
new destinations and leave their home empty. At the
same time, the evolution of the Internet created new
opportunities to share assets and what has been coined

the ‘collaborative consumption’ movement.”
The current economy also has sparked new models
of fractional ownership. Like the second-home market in
general, the fractional sector has been in the doldrums
with transactions in recent years hovering in the $500
million range, down from a high of $2.3 billion in 2007.
The one bright point has been the introduction of two
rental-based Destination Clubs; in a short time each has
generated more than 2,000 members.
Destination Clubs offer memberships, which
guarantee exclusive access to a worldwide network of
vacation homes, typically owned by the club, as well
as special events and custom travel opportunities.
Although some clubs are equity-based, a majority are
not. Most offer an avenue for members to leave the club
and recoup part of their initial fee, which can run well
over $100,000. Properties generally are very high-end,
and in prime settings in the best locations. For example,
Quintess Collection’s residences average $4 million in
value. Exclusive Resorts options include sailing aboard
The World.
In the last couple of years, Destination Clubs also
have undergone reshuffling, with the bankruptcy of a
major club kindling consolidations. Currently, Ragatz
Associates, a consulting firm that has been tracking the
industry with an annual survey since 1999, identifies
six Destination Clubs. Two are based on a new model,
which developers are hoping will be the next generation
in luxury vacation clubs.
Few people know the Destination Club concept
better than Brent Handler, who founded Exclusive
Resorts, which is now run by Steve Case. In early 2011,
Handler introduced a new club, Inspirato, which cir-
cumvents the financial burden of owning a portfolio of
high-cost real estate. Instead, Inspirato’s properties are
leased, usually for a long term, to be used exclusively
by their members. Katherine Strauss, vice president of
marketing for Inspirato, describes this as the “secret
sauce” that enables the club to pass along savings to
members in the form of lower fees. The initial mem-
bership cost is $15,000, and yearly dues are $2,600.
Additionally, she says, leasing, rather than owning,
means “we can be more nimble and add destinations
in response to member demands.”
Another new club, Portico, which is an offshoot
of Exclusive Resorts, debuted in 2012. Here, too,
properties are rented — rather than purchased — by
the club. Like Inspirato, members pay an initial fee,
currently $2,500, as well as yearly dues and nightly
rates for property stays. Justin Halloran, Portico’s CEO,
says the rates “are on average 30 percent to 50 percent
below market norms for comparable villas and for luxury
hotels. Members save on average $400 a night and can
travel as much, or as little, as they want, thanks to an
innovative pay-as-you-go model.”
Both clubs integrate the high level of individualized

service and attention to detail that are hallmarks of
both Private Residence Clubs (another high-end, equity-
based form of shared ownership) and Destination Clubs.
Members are assigned to a travel specialist who works
with them to customize their experience. “Our members
tell us our tailored services are what they like best. Our
personal vacation advisors spend a lot of time getting to
know each member. For example, we might know that
your daughter has always wanted to do a particular activ-
ity or that you really like a certain artist. Our advisors
really go over the top, making sure it’s the best vacation.
We are not just a vacation service. We really do unique,
special things that make our members proud to be part
of the club,” explains Strauss, underscoring the essence
of Inspirato. “A private club is first and foremost how we
describe ourselves.”
“Today, luxury is about having things the way you
want them, when you want them. Our members want
more personal and authentic vacation experiences that
we deliver by learning about their interests and craft-
ing custom experiences to suit their needs,” observes
Halloran. “Our villa list changes in response to mem-
ber demand — swapping out homes in Barbados,
say, for some in St. Barths, because that is what
members want.”
Like Destination Clubs, Portico and Inspirato have
a 24-hour concierge at each location. Portico’s plan-
ners and support staff are called Escapists, and Halloran
says “they handle everything down to the groceries in
your fridge and the wine in your cellar.” Having an on-
location concierge also means guests are not left to cope
with unexpected glitches, even if they involve, say, a
middle-of-the-night problem with the air conditioner.
Properties also are scrutinized to ensure they meet
club standards. “Portico’s portfolio reflects the same
uncompromising standard of quality as set by Exclusive
Resorts — the leader in destination clubs for 10-plus
years — ensuring a consistent product every trip,” Hal-
loran observes.
Inspirato invests in properties, often outfitting
them with premium linens and other furnishings. “Since
Inspirato rents these properties for a long period of time,
we control and manage them. One of the benefits of
the club is that no matter where in the world you are,
you get a consistent experience and consistent level of
quality,” comments Strauss.
3RD HOME also bills itself as a club. Currently,
there are over 1,100 members who pay a two-year mem-
bership fee, which is $495 at the moment, and an addi-
tional fee of $495 per week when reserving a property.
To ensure the highest quality “of both members and
their residences,” the club does extensive prescreening,
according to Shealy. Also, members provide unbiased
ratings and feedback on their host and guest experi-
ences. Not only do these help maintain quality, but they
also give potential renters insight into the ins and outs
of a property.
While the answers to some questions remain to
be seen — Once the resort market heats up, how many
homes will be available to rent? Will these clubs be
able to maintain low membership fees? — all three
clubs have gathered a good number of members in a
short time.
Looking ahead, Dick Ragatz, founder of Ragatz
Associates, expects demand for all fractional products
to follow and eventually outpace the resort market.
Surveys show shared ownership receives a high level
of approval from consumers. In addition to Destination
Clubs, many Private Residence Clubs offer the flexibility
of 3RD HOME with options to use homes in a range of
locations through established exchange programs with
other residence clubs. Also, most are structured to pro-
vide opportunities for use beyond the time allotted by
the share. In the future, this flexibility will be important
to consumers.
Shealy is equally positive about his model:
“Regardless of the economy, when it comes to luxury
second homes, I believe it will become the standard that
36 UniqueHomes.com
second homes will not be sold without a 3RD HOME exchange-type
program included.”
High-end home rentals are also the centerpiece of other new
entries in the resort market. Until recently, the overall online vacation
home rental market has been dominated by Home Away, which caters
to a variety of price points. The latest Home Away survey of owners
who consider summer to be their peak season shows 72 percent, with
reported occupancy rates of 76 percent or higher in 2012, up from
68 percent the prior summer.
The latest trend in online rentals focuses on high-end proper-
ties. And it’s no surprise that two of these new companies found their
inspiration in London, in anticipation of a boost in demand from the
Olympics. However, their sphere of influence is no longer limited to
the United Kingdom. Onefinestay, which bills itself as “the unhotel,”
teaming the character of real homes with the services of a hotel, has
more than 700 homes in its London portfolio. Acceptance of the
concept in New York has been even more positive. Just five months
after launching in the Big Apple, their collection numbered a hundred
residences. Services include a welcome to the property and a 24-hour
help desk. Guests can determine what level of services they want to
receive, including concierge services, stocking of the refrigerator and
the rental of any audio visual equipment. Five-star linens and pre-
mium toiletries are standard. Another perk: guests receive an iPhone
for calls and discovering more local tips. Members benefit by receiv-
ing income from a house or a flat that would otherwise be vacant.
Originally only in London — which, according to the Evening
Register, has more than 250,000 second homes many with over-
seas owners — Vive Unique also focuses on upper-end rentals. The
company has expanded its reach worldwide with properties in major
cities, including Barcelona, Cape Town, Rio, Hong Kong and Bali, as
well as New York, Chicago and Miami. A high level of service both
for owners, as well as guests, is one promised benefit. “We take
care of everything from the booking, to check-in and check-out, and
everything in between. We prepare every home and return it to our
homeowners just as they left it. Bespoke insurance is also included
as standard for our homeowners,” explains Claire Whisker, a London
lawyer who is founder and director of Vive Unique. Additionally, very
much in line with the “cost commensurate with use” concept fuel-
ing all these arrangements, guests can select from any number of
optional services.

he world of ceramic tile is experiencing a renais-
sance period in design, and opening more design
avenues than ever before. More and more people
are taking notice and incorporating ceramic tile into their
homes in unique and interesting ways.
Manufacturers are discovering that customers and
designers are intrigued by bold tile choices and the chal-
lenges, and opportunities, they present. Today’s top tile
trends include mixed patterns, new neutrals, texture and
bright accents.
“I think that tile choices are getting bolder due to
optimism in the economy,” explains Lori Dolnick, who
represents Tile of Spain. “There is a trend towards person-
alization.” The combination of bolder options with person-
alization or customization, further pushes design limits in
the home.
Another contributing factor to the bolder trends
is a smaller world, according to Dolnick. “In Eastern
Europe and in Asia, colors have been popular for a while.
And now, with everything being easily accessible online,
people can research and see what’s out there and put it
into their homes.”
At trade shows, manufacturers often highlight the
mix-and-match trend, to show designers and consumers
the possibilities of design opportunities.
“The mix-and-match trend is sort of a transitional
style element — it can include medieval-inspired geomet-
ric shapes and colors, with newer elements such as bright
accent colors.”
The most popular of the trends are the new neutrals
and textured tiles. The new neutrals differ from the “old”
neutrals in color scheme. In the new neutrals, there are
more grays, blacks and deeper, richer neutral tones.
“New neutrals are on trend now,” explains Dolnick,
“They are the most popular kitchen color. Gray was popu-
lar in Europe two years ago, and now the trend is reaching
the American market.”
Bright accent colors go hand in hand with new neu-
trals, as a pop of color to add a spot of interest or to draw
attention to a design element.
Texture tiles are also popular because they are more
“reﬁned and deﬁned,” states Dolnick, compared to when
they ﬁrst came out.
Textured tiles are gaining in popularity because it
presents designers and architects with a challenge, but
are highly customizable for the client.
Texture allows the designer freedom to create. “For
instance,” states Dolnick, “if there is space behind the tex-
tured, tiled wall, lights can be installed behind to create an
interesting look.”
The 3-D printers used to create the tiles have
improved so much with technology over the past few years
that the tiles not only look, but even feel like the material
they are designed to look like.
“Manufacturers can bring back extinct stone looks
that have disappeared due to over-quarrying, and you

Dolnick. “They are

look and feel, and bringing this age-old product
into places it rarely has been seen before.

can’t really tell the difference,” asserts Dolnick.
Manufacturers of tile can also remake marble
looks at a fraction of the cost of actual marble, and with
a longer durability.
“I was in Chicago, and I remember seeing the
Amoco [now known as the Aon building] building’s
marble façade being removed because it was deterio-
rating from the elements. And, when I walked inside,
the marble ﬂooring was so slippery from the rain and
everything on people’s shoes, so I tried my hardest to
just stick to walking on the carpet. And now, with all the
advances in tile construction, I think of how you could
have had the marble look with a non-slick surface,”
says Dolnick.
Ceramic and porcelain tile is itself a long-lasting
ﬂooring option, but with advances in technology and
construction, tile ﬂooring can be made non-slick so it
can be placed on stairs, in high trafﬁc areas like an
entryway and even outside, around pools and on decks.
Tiles can be used as an exterior covering on
houses and buildings, and possess technology that
cleans the air as it passes through into the home.
Other advances include glowing tiles that absorb light
and can reﬂect it back during power outages. “These
glow tiles are being utilized in hospitals, so if a power
outage occurs, people can see well enough to exit the
building safely,” explains Dolnick.
As evidenced in designs throughout Spain, tile
can be utilized as a design element anywhere — on
ﬂoors, walls and the exterior of buildings.
“There is a preschool in Spain that I had the
opportunity to visit and its all tiled exterior. It is three
separate buildings, done in variants of primary colors
and it is just stunning,” states Dolnick.
Ceramic and porcelain tiles are the main con-
struction materials in Spain. Comparatively, tile is not
used that often in the United States, but Tile of Spain
and the Spanish Ceramic Tile Manufacturers’ Asso-
ciation (ASCER) have collaborated with the Harvard
University Graduate School of Design on conferences,
workshops and research projects with students to
change that.
The Cersaie Trade Show in Italy occurred at the
end of September, highlighting current trends and giv-
ing designers a look into future trends. The trends con-
tinue to evolve as gray neutrals made a big showing.
“I predicted seeing a lot of distressed wood,
which I did, but also some polished woods, which was
a surprise. Stone looks are still very strong, and design-
ers are creating new looks in tile that aren’t found in
nature,” says Dolnick.
Another trend for the upcoming year is vintage
and distressed looks, “like distressed wallpaper, for
instance,” explains Dolnick.
Porcelain and ceramic tiles are continuously
growing and changing in styles and designs. The vari-
ous textures, palettes, colors and combinations provide
many opportunities for the designer and customer to
create a high-end, one-of-a-kind look.

High Proﬁle Design
A Look at a Renowned Architectural Icon
By Alexa Rozzi
Y
ou can only build a skyscraper so
tall before zoning codes, a client’s
demands or gravity puts a limit
on its design. Through an innovative yet
practical approach to architecture and
interior design, New York City-based
architect Ismael Leyva is challenging
what’s possible, and reshaping some of
the most famous skylines in the world.
From Central America to New York City, to
China and beyond, Leyva is redeﬁning the
limits of high-rise design.
Born in Mexico, Leyva attended
school in Veracruz, graduating from the
Faculdad de Arquitectura in 1977. An
opportunity to help his father’s friend
build a hotel brought Leyva to Acapulco,
where he met his ﬁrst wife, an American
from New York. Upon completing the
construction of the hotel, Leyva travelled
to America with her, ﬁnding himself in the
city that, according to him, is an archi-
tect’s paradise.
“New York is where everything is
happening,” Leyva says. “As an architect
it’s a dream to be able to contribute to a
city like New York.”
At the start of his career, Leyva
hardly spoke English. He worked at vari-
ous ﬁrms that dealt mostly with residential
high-rise buildings, but the young archi-
tect recognized the potential to grow his
career independently as the leader of his
own ﬁrm.
“Every time in my life that I de-
cided to do something, especially some-
thing related to my profession, I decided
to be the best or one of the best. That is
my policy as a person. When I went out
on my own, I had people tell me I was
taking a risk, don’t do it, you’re doing well
the way you are. I didn’t listen. I knew I
could contribute better as an architect of
my own ﬁrm.”
Leyva rented a desk in a friend’s
ofﬁce and began contacting past clients
until he was commissioned by global
real estate company Related Companies.
Working in association with Robert A.M.
Stern on The Chatham, a 32-story luxury
condominium on East 65th Street, Leyva
began to assert himself as an indepen-
dent architect. In 1996, Ismael Leyva
Architects PC was born, now recognized
internationally as a leading architecture,
interior design and urban planning ﬁrm.
Leyva’s success didn’t just ﬂour-
ish from his personal drive, but also
from an innate ability to see the poten-
tial in building sites that are considered
challenging and limiting. Downtown in
Hell’s Kitchen on 48th and 8th, Icon, a
43-story luxury condominium, exempli-
ﬁes the architect’s vision.
Considered a redeﬁnition of the
New York City skyline because of its unique
proportions — built on a 24-foot-wide lot —
Leyva designed Icon on a site where other
builders and architects didn’t think con-
struction was possible. After its completion
in 2009, Icon fostered the development
of the lower 8th Midtown area, according
Ismael
Leyva

to Leyva. The way his design took into account the existing
feel of the area ignited a transformation while preserving
the vibe of the neighborhood.
“Other developers didn’t think something could
be built in such a small space, but we were able to get
the aesthetics, as well as function.”
When it comes to designing, “form follows func-
tion” for Leyva. He takes the culture and lifestyle of the
people using his structures into consideration, as well as
the surrounding environment.
Torres Paseo Colon — the tallest building in San
José, Costa Rica, completed by Leyva in 2012 — show-
cases this contextual approach to design.
“The way people live in Costa Rica is very differ-
ent,” Leyva says. “They spend a lot of time outdoors, so
we designed every unit with a balcony and terrace. You
adapt the design to the lifestyle, customs and culture.”
Back in New York, Leyva is currently working on
The Charles, a 31-story luxury tower on the Upper East
Side. Instead of taking advantage of a tropical climate
with balconies and terraces, Leyva designed The Charles
with a glass façade, adding windows to maximize views.
“I show clients the possibilities of their visions,
but I always look out for the interests of the architecture
and the interests of the people who will be living in the
space,” he says.
Leyva has also incorporated a commitment to
the environment into his career. Ismael Leyva Architects
is built around a philosophy that is ecologically respon-
sible and functional. The ﬁrm utilizes a network of part-
nerships to connect clients to resources that will foster
environmentally responsible, cost-efﬁcient building.
“As an architect, I feel like I have more responsi-
bility then other professions because we are responsible
for things like materials and conservation of energy. To me,
it’s a very serious problem we have in our world, and I try
to apply some of the systems that will preserve our planet.”
According to Leyva, seeing his designs transform
from scraps of metal to soaring structures is the most
exciting part of his job, while talking to the people living
in and using his buildings is the most rewarding. Leyva
and his ﬁrm plan to delve into markets in the Middle East,
Central America and Asia to diversify business and con-
tinue challenging the possibilities of architecture.
“As an architect, I feel like
I have more responsibility
then other professions
because we are responsible
for things like materials
and conservation of energy.
To me, it’s a very serious
problem we have in our
world, and I try to apply
some of the systems that will
preserve our planet.”

Are we there yet?
Te Midwest has a unique recovery story to tell.
By Camilla McLaughlin
In
the last decade, few regions have had as many
local economies in transition as the Midwest.
And few seem to be taking quite as long to climb out
of the recession. Yet, if you look closely at Chicago,
Minneapolis, Milwaukee or St. Louis, or a state such
as Michigan, any preconceived notions about real es-
tate and the recovery of the middle of the country are
likely to be dashed.
“When I go around the country and meet
fellow Realtors and brokers, their frst reaction is, ‘I
am so sorry,’ since they know I am based in Detroit,”
shares Dan Elsea, president of brokerage services
for Real Estate One. “What they don’t know is our
market in Southeast Michigan was one of the frst
to recover, and it has been going strong. We’re doing
quite well.”
Te frst inklings of recovery cropped up
as early as three years ago in a couple of markets.
Others started to revive in 2011, and today many —
especially certain price brackets or neighborhoods
THE NEW LUXURY LANDSCAPE
More than a year ago, when Unique Homes first considered
exploring the recovery in regions throughout the U.S., the as-
sumption was that many would follow a traditional path with
activity moving upward, beginning with first-time buyers. At
the time, whether or not a true recovery was underway was
still open to debate, and the tipping point between a buyer’s
and a seller’s market was still well ahead for most locations.
Many got a sizable boost from the worldwide recovery in
wealth, which sparked a comeback for luxury properties in
the U.S. Along the coasts, high-end markets in San Francisco,
Miami, New York and Beverly Hills sizzled, often leaving oth-
er price brackets playing catch up. As bottom lines contin-
ued to bounce into the black, the wealthy, buoyed by growing
confidence in the investment potential of real estate, turned
to resort properties, adding to sales in mountain and coastal
markets. But in the Midwest, it’s an entirely different story.

— are edging close to sellers’ market territory.
According to Homes.com’s Rebound Index, Omaha,
Wichita, Indianapolis and Des Moines have re-
bounded by more than 100 percent.
Along Chicago’s tony North Shore, the glim-
mers of the turnaround were in evidence as early as
2010, and as soon as fnancing became available,
land values started to come up. “Our market came
back before Chicago,” says Steve Hudson, owner of
Te Hudson Company in Winnetka, Ill. “Now, peo-
ple are comfortable that the market has bottomed
out and that is one reason why 2013 saw a surge in
demand.”
In September, Chicago led the rest of the
country in the number of sales with a 27.6 percent
increase over September 2012, according to the
RE/MAX National Housing Report.
“Last year was a really good year,” says
Joanne Nemerovski, vice president of luxury sales
with Prudential Rublof Properties in Chicago. “Tis
year our market has been crazy. I normally keep
about 15 to 18 listings. Right now it’s hard to keep a
listing longer than a week. I wouldn’t say prices are
back to 2006 and 2007 levels, but I will say they are
well on their way.”
In Detroit’s high-end suburbs, traditional old
money enclaves of Birmingham, Bloomfeld Hills
and Grosse Pointe, agents glimpsed the beginnings
of the turnaround as early as mid-2011. “We were
seeing inventories decrease and demand increase,
and leading into 2012 we saw price increases as well
because of supply and demand. Tis year is a con-
tinuation of 2012,” with low inventories and high de-
mand, which means multiple ofers, same-day sales
and over-asking sales, which are all signs of a very
fast-paced market,” shares Brad Wolfe, executive
vice president of Hall & Hunter Realtors in Birming-
ham, Mich.
“Last year was the frst year we began to see
an uptick in the over $2 million market and 2013 has

LAKE TAHOE ESTATE SELLS FOR
$19.75 MILLION
Just 22 months after purchasing Philadelphia’s 10 Rittenhouse at a sheriff’s
sale, iStar Financial, along with Dranoff Properties, quickly turned the tide. The
building, in the city’s sought-after Rittenhouse Square neighborhood, is now only
11 units away from being sold out — with prices on all breaking the $1,000-per-
square-foot barrier.
These sales brought the Robert A.M. Stern-designed building from 27-percent
sold to 90-percent sold, and delivered more than $100 million in sales.
One standout sale is unit 3004, which encompasses 3,254 square feet of
luxury. This condo was listed for $3.8 million, but was already reserved at press
time. The 3-bedroom, 3-full- and one-half-bath home boasts huge windows to enjoy
the eastern and southern exposures.
“There is so much to love about the building, but to me, the brand-new,
multimillion-dollar amenity floor, which features a music room, library, wine lockers,
a catering kitchen and an enhanced fitness center with yoga studio and an indoor
pool, just makes the property,” shares Cynthia Tucker, senior vice president of iStar.

Chase International recently represented the seller of
the StoneGate estate in Incline Village, Nev., on the
North Shore of Lake Tahoe. The $19.75 million sale
marks the village’s largest sale to date. The property
was co-listed by Kerry Donovan and Shari Chase.
The over-10,000-square-foot home boasts five
bedrooms, 10 baths, an exercise room, wine cellar, a
private pier and 100 feet of sandy beach.
The interior was designed by Michael S. Smith,
known for working with Hollywood celebrities and
with the Obama family in the White House. “Stone-
Gate is an extraordinary home. The attention to detail
and craftsmanship is unmatched on Lake Tahoe. It
can hold its own with the most beautiful homes in the
world,” says Smith.
Echoes Donovan, “This property was built as a
home to live in and no expense was spared. There’s
amazing finish work, like a front door that is four inches
thick. The interior is tied together with comfortable,
luxury style. It’s understated, peaceful and beautiful.”
Built by acclaimed Tahoe Builder John Brink,
StoneGate is in a community that offers a master
planned golf course, skiing, two private beaches and
an indoor recreation center within five square miles.
“It’s more of a community than other pocket commu-
nities around here and it’s perfect for the indoor-to-
outdoor active lifestyle,” says Donovan. ©

trails and European-inspired spa.
a memorable red he grows that is not frequently seen
in Sonoma or Napa. “Grenache is an up-and-coming
grape that is big in Europe,” he explained.
Each vintner contributes 300 bottles annually
to the Mayacama collection for club members and
guests to enjoy while dining or at special events, and
many of these wines never reach the commercial
market. Additional wine program advantages include
a separate two-story wine tower, lounge, tasting sta-
tions and an intimate dining room.
Considering the wine program and the sig-
nature Jack Nicklaus golf course, Mayacama may
appear to be suffering from an identity crisis. On site,
the staff casually refers to the resort as a “wine club
that plays golf,” and it’s evident that the two pursuits
are more intertwined than expected. The sense of

neighboring Sonoma provides an experience that is

Near the bustling town of Healdsburg, at the con-
vergence of the three major wine-producing valleys
of Russian River, Dry Creek ,and Alexander, lies a
private golf and residence club that offers an unparal-

On a recent visit, Mayacama opened the doors
to its 3,000-square-foot, temperature-controlled wine
cellar to reveal the exclusive wine program available
to its members. Many of the 35 members of the club’s
renowned Vintner Program produce several unique

its defining characteristics. Oenophiles are overheard
discussing their latest round of play, and residence
owners frequently cross paths in local restaurants,
where they enjoy vintages from Mayacama vintners.
This sense of a tight-knit community is partially
due to the resort’s low-density residential landscape.
Managing Partner Jonathan Wilhelm explained that
Mayacama’s 675 acres, originally owned by Charles
Schulz, are zoned such that the resort cannot expand
beyond its 20 villas and nine casitas. These residenc-
es, and the course alike, embrace the natural, varied
landscape. Surveying the afternoon sun-drenched

A LETTER FROM BETTY GRAHAM
Autumn always seems to mark a season of new beginnings. Each issue of Homes & Estates represents
a new beginning for us at Coldwell Banker Previews International
®
, as we gather together the latest
real estate market fndings, Previews properties for sale around the globe and original lifestyle stories that
refect luxury we love. It’s our time to show you the most comprehensive portrait of high-end real estate
yet, whether it’s in the context of the Luxury Market Report or the very magazine you hold in your hands.
For the Fall 2013 issue of Previews
®
Homes & Estates, it is by no accident that we take you deep into the
heart of the home. We start at the center of family interaction—the kitchen—where the legendary Clive
Christian brand has made its indelible mark. Our exclusive interview with brand ambassador Victoria
Christian reveals the detail, fne craftsmanship and enduring style that make a Clive Christian kitchen one
of the most famous and sought-after custom kitchens in the world today. For those looking to fll their lives
with something equally special, we talk to Michael Bruno about creating an enviable online destination
for fnding the most beautiful things—and homes—on earth. And fnally, there is endless inspiration to be
found in 248 gorgeous pages of fne Previews properties.
The latest fndings from the Luxury Market Report also seem to suggest a new season for luxury real
estate. As you’ll fnd on page 10, we give you an exclusive look at the report’s “top 20 U.S. cities” for
the highest number of active luxury home listings and closed sales. This year’s expanded list reveals
market strength in many U.S. cities beyond traditional affuent havens like New York, Los Angeles and
San Francisco.
As we usher in this season, it’s a moment to turn inward and feel gratitude for all of the beautiful things
(and people) in our lives. I can think of no better time of year to curl up in front of the freplace with a
copy of Homes & Estates and feel the warm embrace of home…and the not-too-distant dream of owning a
Previews property.

A LETTER FROM BUDGE HUSKEY
At Coldwell Banker
®
Real Estate LLC, we have a popular refrain: luxury real estate is global. To us, it means we have our pulse on all
four corners of the globe. It means 107 years of experience, leadership at the highest levels and the resources to bring together the world’s
best and brightest stars of real estate for meetings of the minds such as the Coldwell Banker Generation Blue Experience (Oct. 7-8). This
year, “Gen Blue” came to New York, the nation’s epicenter for luxury real estate. The two-day, sold-out event welcomed thousands of
agents for networking, learning and enjoying a city that has long captured our hearts, minds and dreams.
In many ways, our presence in the Big Apple caps off a year of expansion for Coldwell Banker, which included the addition of a
respected Manhattan affliate to our franchise system. We are thrilled to bring the Previews program to New York, one of America’s oldest
and most established affuent marketplaces. Our expansion was also global, with the addition of prestigious affliates in Switzerland and
India now bringing our international presence to 52 countries, signaling to all affuent buyers and sellers that we are truly a global real
estate company capable of delivering exceptional service whether you are in New York, Zurich, Mumbai or a quiet town outside the city.
If you’re not convinced, I invite you to take a closer look at the articles and properties in the current issue of Homes & Estates. There is
something special for everyone. For those who respond to hard-hitting news and data, the Luxury Market Report exclusive on page 10
might reveal an emerging high-end real estate haven that is prime for investment or selling right now. We also offer stories for those
who want to know about all things luxury—from custom-designed kitchens to rare collector’s items. And for those who simply enjoy
looking at beautiful homes all over the world? We have that covered too. It all speaks to the longstanding luxury leadership and
unmatched global strength of the Previews program.

LUXURY REPORT
Where are the hottest luxury real estate markets? The answer could very
well be found in the latest Coldwell Banker Previews International
®

Luxury Market Report. This year, Previews
®
consulted with Real Data
Strategies, Inc. to offer expanded coverage that includes the top 20 U.S.
cities with the highest number of active luxury home listings and closed sales
in three price categories.
“The city data revealed several interesting market trends,” said Patrick
Veling, founder and president of Real Data Strategies, Inc. “For example,
luxury real estate activity in San Francisco is consistent with a seller’s
market, as it ranked No. 3 for sold properties in the $1 million and up
range, yet was absent from our list of the top 20 cities with the most
active listings in the same category. These ﬁndings support what we’ve been
hearing anecdotally for a while now—that inventory is very low in this
popular city. Using that same logic, Miami appears to be a buyer’s market,
since it ranked No. 2 for the most listings $1 million and up—yet it does not
appear among the top 20 sold properties in the same price range. If you’re a
luxury buyer in Miami, you obviously will have a choice of properties.”
Other signiﬁcant trends pulled from the data reﬂect strength in many
marketplaces across the nation. Established metropolises such as
Chicago (No. 4), Washington D.C. (No. 7), Boston (No. 12) and Atlanta
(No. 13) had high numbers of active listings priced $1 million and up—
suggesting that seller conﬁdence has spread beyond the expected afﬂuent
havens of New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. In the $10 million
and up category, New York might have earned the top spot for the most
active listings over $10 million—but Miami-Dade County emerged
as a secondary hotspot for listings over $10 million, with Miami,
Miami Beach, Indian Creek Village and Coral Gables all ranking among
the top 20. (“Could Miami-Dade County be a new epicenter for luxury real
estate?” asks Veling. “Time will tell!”) And interestingly, Aspen occupied
the No. 4 position on both sides of the $10 million and up range, speaking
to the town’s “maturation in recent years,” noted Veling, growing from a
seasonal resort to a year-round mecca for the ultra afﬂuent. It’s a shift
Previews examines further in the Luxury Market Report.

A3 - Aston Martin Prototype (1921)
The ﬁrst Aston Martin, named Coal Scuttle, was built in 1915. Following
Coal Scuttle and the Great War, three more prototype cars were built,
of which this was one—chassis number A3; the third Aston Martin ever
built and the oldest in existence. Having undergone a complete rebuild
to 1921 speciﬁcations in 2006, the car is now owned by the Aston
Martin Heritage Trust.
DBR1 (1959)
DBR1 won the 24 hours of Le Mans race in 1959, earning the distinction
as one of the most successful racing Aston Martins. Many famous
victories were secured following its 1st and 2nd place at Le Mans in
1959 as the car went on to win the World Sportscar Championship
outright with the DBR1 in the same year.
DB5 (1963)
DB5 is perhaps the most iconic Aston Martin ever made, and, owing
to its role in numerous James Bond ﬁlms, probably one of the world’s
most famous cars. After debuting in 1963, the DB5 shot to fame after
appearing in “Goldﬁnger” (1964), beginning Aston Martin’s 50-year love
affair with Bond. The revered car has appeared several times since,
appearing most recently in 2012’s “Skyfall.”
DB7 ( 1993)
A3 ( 1921)
DB7 (1993)
The iconic DB moniker was resurrected in 1993 with DB7, a
six-cylinder “entry level” model available both as a coupe and a convertible.
Subsequently replaced by DB9 in 2003, DB7 secured a position in the company’s
history, as the then most successful Aston Martin ever, with more than 7,000 built.
One-77 (2009)
The most powerful, naturally aspirated car in the world, the extremely rare One-
77, had a limited run of just 77 cars—hence its name. Capable of accelerating
from 0 to 60 MPH in under 3.5 seconds, the supercar also became the fastest
Aston Martin ever when it reached a top speed in excess of 220 MPH. The car
went on to win numerous design awards.
V12 Vantage S (2013)
The V12 Vantage S is considered the fastest Aston Martin after
One-77. Hailed as “Aston Martin’s most ferocious sports car,” the new V12
Vantage S has the capability to reach a top speed of 205 MPH and a 0-to-60
time of just 3.7 seconds. The new car goes on sale in the U.S. early next year.
The CC100 Speedster Concept (2013)
The CC100 Speedster Concept was created to celebrate the 100th birthday
of Aston Martin. The speedster pays homage to the legendary DBR1 race car
with its styling, while also hinting at Aston Martin’s future design direction and
incorporating the automaker’s naturally aspirated V12 engine. Aston Martin’s
CEO, Dr. Ulrich Bez, has said of CC100: “This car is more than a simple ‘birthday
present’ to ourselves. It shows that the soul of Aston Martin—the thing that
differentiates us from all other car makers—is as powerful as ever.” If Aston Martin
enthusiasts want a glimpse into the next 100 years of Aston Martin, there is no
better place to look than the CC100 Speedster Concept.

he explosive growth of the 1stdibs site and its enviable
collection of “the most beautiful things on earth” has
ignited an online spending frenzy by a passionate audience
of aff luent buyers, while voyeurs have coined the term
“1stdibs envy.” Lamented one writer: “Why aren’t country
songs written about being unable to afford a luxury item you really
want?” This heightened sense of aspiration is a luxury brand’s dream,
and a 1stdibs reality.
Founded by former real estate agent and collector Michael Bruno,
1stdibs launched as a trade-only website in 2000. Recalls Bruno: “We
hand-selected items available from dealers at the Paris Flea Market
and shared the images with interior designers in the U.S. market. Our
goal in the beginning was 100 items a week, yet today there are over
4,000 new items every Wednesday.” The site now has a presence in 11
countries, and boasts wares from 1,700 dealers with over 2.5 million
visits and 10 million page views each month.
The idea for 1stdibs first came to Bruno during the Internet boom
in the late 1990s, while he was working in San Francisco as a real
estate agent. “I was on the lookout for my next chapter, and I was
very open to what was going on around me and in search of things
that interested me,” he remembers. “Later, as I was shopping in Paris’
historic Marché aux Puces for items to add to my own collection, I
realized what I wanted to do. I wanted to create a vehicle for sharing
special finds with the world.”
What followed was a decade of unprecedented growth, as 1stdibs
grew to become the premier online luxury marketplace for not just
Parisian antiques and furniture, but estate jewelry and vintage fashion.
The site added fine art in 2010, followed by real estate in 2011. The
venture into real estate marked an important realization of Bruno’s
long-term vision for his company.
“Real estate was my first love,” explains Bruno. “Part of what
fascinated me was the lifestyle that came along with some of the great
old houses I love. After fulfilling demand for furniture and objects,
we expanded into all of the elements that make up a lifestyle, from
fashion to fine jewelry and fine art. The ultimate final touch was
offering the house for it all to go in.”
Of course, finding buyers who can afford things as special as the
world’s finest estates was, and always will be, a challenge. 1stdibs
responded by increasing its exposure worldwide. The company has
welcomed parties from across the globe, with dealers in the United
Kingdom, Spain, Italy, France, and, most recently, Germany and
Austria. These global additions mean new buyers join the fold on a
16 | Homes & Estates
near-daily basis, as well. Bruno says these new visitors are not window
shoppers, but true buyers “who are snapping up everything from
Hermès handbags to Cartier bracelets and Jean Michel Frank chairs.”
He points to several notable international sales this year: a $45,000
pink diamond ring sold, as well as a $36,000 pair of Giacometti
f loor lamps and a $46,000 sofa, which sold online to a buyer in the
United Kingdom. But their love for beautiful things also extends to
extraordinary homes.
“We continue to meet this demand by curating our real estate
section in new and innovative ways, and have done so by creating
searches focusing on lifestyle, notable architects, landmarked estates,
as well as vineyards and orchards,” he adds. “No other website takes
the time to hand-select the world’s greatest properties and present
them in such a manner. That’s why buyers keep coming back week
after week. Now, we are contacted regularly by home sellers who see
the value of putting their home in front of our global audience.” There
is little doubt—1stdibs has created one of the world’s most enviable
destinations for finding the most beautiful homes on earth.

W
hen it comes to the luxury kitchen, there is only one name that inspires reverence
in equal measure among both interior designers and homeowners: Clive Christian.
Designers gravitate toward the Scottish artisan’s hand-painted cabinets, coving, carvings
and crystal chandeliers for their ability to transform the home’s most ordinary space into an
opulent work of art. And for homeowners? A Clive Christian kitchen brings instant cachet
and value to their home. Explains Victoria Christian, brand ambassador and spokesperson:
“A Clive Christian kitchen remains today the most famous and photographed kitchen in
the world.”

he international luxury brand has long courted
celebrities in sports, music, ﬁnance, ﬁlm,
television and politics, many of whom return
again and again to furnish new homes or secondary
residences in other countries. Recalls Christian: “One
country music star contacted our chief designer in our
London showroom when she moved home and asked
us to replicate the entire kitchen and dining space that
she had in her former home because she couldn’t live
without her Clive Christian kitchen.”
One visit to the luxury brand’s London or New York
ﬂagship showrooms, and it’s easy to see why. Every
kitchen is custom-created for each homeowner from the
designer’s in-house factory in Northern England. Designs
are based on the classical order, ensuring an aesthetic
that never ages. In the showrooms, elaborately built-out
apartments display the seamless details and elegant
Neo-Classical touches that have become synonymous
with Clive Christian: exquisite millwork and richly carved
corbels, all transporting one back to a gilded age—if
kitchens were statement rooms back then. And therein
lies the allure of a Clive Christian kitchen: to own one,
you must have an imagination, the ability to embellish
the past with the eyes and the vast budget of a modern
day luxury homeowner.
With Victoria Christian as our guide, Homes &
Estates takes a rare look inside the rich and mysterious
world of the luxury furniture maker, perfumer, interior
designer and architectural craftsman.

What qualities distinguish a Clive Christian kitchen?
The kitchen—the heart of the home—was the ﬁrst room
to be addressed by the furniture and interiors division
of the Clive Christian brand, which was established in
1978. For the ﬁrst time, Clive Christian incorporated
grand design elements usually reserved for other spaces
in the home—corbels and carving, ﬁne marquetry and
panelling, gold and silver leaf, and precious materials
such as solid woods, veneer, marble surfaces and
crystal chandeliers—instantly transforming what had
been merely a functional workspace into a place for
entertaining and celebrating. Even to this day, the
kitchen is still our most requested room.
Kitchen design has evolved dramatically in the last 30
years since Clive Christian was ﬁrst established. How
has your design approach changed over the decades?
One of Clive’s guiding principles is to “design ﬁrst” and
never create with reference to cost. This manifests in
a look and feel that is enduring. That said, Clive has
always believed the kitchen to be the central room of
the home. However, he has responded to a changing
client base with international, cultural and lifestyle
differences. In one instance, the husband insisted
they have a magniﬁcent Clive Christian kitchen ﬁtted
within their large home—even though they had a full
staff and two catering kitchens for family and social
engagements—so that his wife would have the proper
environment to prepare something herself if she ever
decided to do so! Technologies have certainly advanced
since the brand’s inception in the 1970s, however these
‘intelligent systems’ are easily and invisibly incorporated
into the cabinetry and panelling. So your plasma screen
television is concealed within the mirrored walls of your
kitchen or bar, or at the foot of your four-poster bed. The
technology itself never becomes the feature; it is simply
there to enhance the lifestyle of our clients.
“One of
Clive’s guiding
principles is to
‘design frst’
and never create
with reference
to cost.”

Who is the typical Clive Christian client?
The Clive Christian client is most often a
self-made, successful individual or entrepreneur.
All of our clients share the common characteristic of
conﬁdence. They know what they want and choose
distinctive design styles to create and furnish their
homes without being swayed by trends or opinions.
They also have the ability to afford the very best
quality to ensure that the investment in their property
is a sound one that will stand the test of time.
Do your clients believe their kitchen increases the
resale value of their home?
Absolutely, yes. If they ever want to leave it,
of course!
What are some of the most unusual requests you
have ever received?
In terms of detail, we have serviced clients who
have chosen to have their family crest or personal
insignia crafted in ﬁne marquetry and placed in relief
throughout the project, on doors, in the coffered
ceiling panels, in the panels of the cabinetry, etc.
One of our New York clients had such great affection
for her family pet that she chose to have its sweet
Terrier face designed and crafted into the marquetry
throughout the project. Another one of our
dog-loving clients had a miniature replica of her Clive
Christian home created for her nine Chihuahuas to
‘live in.’ We love to encourage these requests, as
they are an example of individuals celebrating their
life and creating a home that will be a legacy to pass
on to future generations.

O
ne of the most extraordinary homes on Orange County, California’s
Gold Coast—where grand estates are hardly uncommon—is this
oceanfront property inspired by 16th century Italian palazzo
design. With more than 24,000 square feet of indoor/outdoor space
showcasing the Pacifc, this Laguna Beach home represents the best of Old
and New Worlds.
“My wife and I love traveling to Northern Italy, particularly Bellagio
and the Lake Country, where we’ve always admired the architecture,”
says current owner Ron Loder, who reports they returned frequently to
refine the design before breaking ground in 2006. Sharing the Loders’
sensibilities was their architect, Thiep Cung of Santa Barbara’s Warner
Group, who studied two years in Florence.
Loder, however, is quick to distance his oceanfront palazzo from the
surplus of Mediterranean McMansions scattered throughout Southern
California, noting that most of those are loose interpretations of Tuscan
farmhouses. “Our house is nothing like that, and I wouldn’t want it to
be construed as Tuscan in any way,” insists Loder, who favors the more
sophisticated style of 16th century Venetian architect Andrea Palladio.
The homesite was originally owned by the Irvine family, which
developed much of Orange County. After the historic one-acre lot sold
for more than $20 million, approval and construction of this palatial
property—the listing agent reports it’s the largest oceanfront home
in Orange County—took eight years. The house is entirely clad in
Roman travertine and meticulously assembled piece-by-piece by Italian
artisans over a two-and-a-half year period.
Even from the front gate, guests are treated to a view through
bronze-framed glass doors into a breezy art gallery revealing the Pacifc
Ocean behind it. “We wanted people to know they were stepping into
an oceanfront property the moment they arrived,” says Loder. Upstairs
is a 2,000-square-foot master suite providing spectacular ocean views but

Also ref lecting Ron and Yolanda Loder’s passion for 20th century
modernism is a completely unexpected guesthouse, a scaled back
replica of pioneering architect Philip Johnson’s famed Glass House
in Connecticut. “The juxtaposition of this steel-and-glass structure
against the 16th century Italian palazzo is striking,” reports Daley.
At the entrance is a unique 53-foot brass-and-glass waterfall designed
by sculptor Taki, salvaged from an abandoned Los Angeles bank.
The generous grounds include an oversized rose garden, an
eco-friendly California native plant garden, and an event lawn
overlooking the Pacific that rivals those of nearby resort hotels.
A poolside cabana features a full bath, while the motor court
accommodates six vehicles. The home, offered at $65 million,
is located in an idyllic enclave called Irvine Cove, an exclusive
community providing gated security and a private white-sand beach.
complete privacy, with a loggia, fireplace and oversized his and hers
dressing rooms and baths. “This is the kind of master suite everybody
wants, but few can afford,” reports Rod Daley, who is currently listing
the home for Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage.
All chandeliers, sconces and fixtures throughout the house are
from premier Murano designers Venini, Seguso or Barovier & Toso,
adding an unexpected wow factor. “My wife and I both feel like
children of the mid-century movement, so all of the lighting hanging
in the house is Murano glass from that period, some museum-
quality,” reports Loder. He adds, “Even though we built an Italianate
palazzo, we wanted the f lavor of mid-century design around us.”
Surprisingly, those relatively contemporary accessories—which
include a spectacular 22-foot Seguso chandelier that’s the centerpiece
of a dramatic staircase—integrate seamlessly with the classically
inspired architecture.

“I’ve had agents from all over come see this home, and they all
say, ‘There’s nothing like it,’” reports Daley, who views the property
as suitable for somebody whose face graces the cover of international
media like Forbes or Fortune Magazine. Because it’s incredibly private
but just 15 minutes from John Wayne Airport and the Newport
Beach financial center, the home is ideal for business entertaining.
Meanwhile, the Loders, after downsizing from their massive palazzo,
are already planning their next construction project: a mid-century
modern home in the California desert.

Gail Rober ts says the key to life is having fun.
But her collection of awards and accolades is no joke.

By Ken Wei ngar t ner | Photo by Ni chol as Rei d
G
ail Roberts got her real estate license because she thought it
would be fun. She sold her frst house from her frst showing
in the frst month of her career, and the fun has continued for
more than 30 years.
Today, the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Roberts is the No. 1 ranked
Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage sales associate in New England,
and is seventh of more than 82,000 Coldwell Banker agents worldwide.
She also has been named one of America’s Top 50 real estate agents for
three consecutive years by The Wall Street Journal and received Coldwell
Banker’s Society of Excellence Award, which is earned by less than 1
percent of agents worldwide.
Roberts says she and her team “build community one home at a time.” Her
efforts within the community, though, go far beyond real estate. She serves on
the boards of the New England chapter of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF, Mount
Auburn Hospital, The Huntington Theatre, and the Guidance Center.
She takes the business of selling seriously, but still has fun.
What I most enjoy about real estate: The more you put in, the more
you get out. You’re not working 9 to 5 knowing you’re just going to make
‘X’ dollars. The sky’s the limit in this business. To me, that’s exciting.
Why philanthropy is important: I’m so lucky to be in a profession that has
allowed me to do well and have a really good life. I feel it’s important for me
to give back and help others. It brings me a lot of joy. And I enjoy introducing
new people to organizations, like UNICEF, and letting them see what they do.
Favorite place to visit: Italy restores my soul. The people are warm and
friendly, the food is amazing and the scenery is phenomenal. It’s just a
totally different lifestyle. I rented a house there for 13 summers with one
of my old roommates. It’s a beautiful country. I think it’s very special.
When not working I like to: Stay active. I like biking and hiking and
dancing. I love to cook and entertain. I enjoy connecting people.
The key to great entertaining: For big parties, it all starts even with the
invitation to set the mood. For smaller dinner parties, I like to make it fun
for people. You need a mix of interesting people and fun things to do. And
laughter; a good party has to be flled with laughter.
What I treasure: My relationships with my niece and nephew.
I’m most proud of: Putting together and having a wonderful team. We’re
like a family, and it’s a family you’ve chosen.
I can’t live without: Dark chocolate.
People might not know: I was on the crew team in college. I was the coxswain.
I would like to try: Paddle boarding, where you stand up on the boards on
the water. That looks like great fun.
Best advice: Be fair, be honest, be ethical. I think, especially in our business,
you need to be aware of the saying that what people remember more than
good service is bad service. It’s important to be focused on providing good
service all the time. I expect good service when I go out, so I need to deliver
good service as well.
I would like to meet (living or dead): My husband. [Laughs.] Guess I
better say he should be living.

When he is not making homebuyers and sellers happy, Barry Berg is making music.
By Ken Weingartner | Photo by Nicholas Reid
B
arry Berg has been Minnesota’s top-selling Realtor for more than
two decades, but he still fnds time to challenge and enjoy himself
in numerous ways when away from the offce.
A graduate of Princeton University, where he studied at the Woodrow
Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, and Harvard Business
School, Berg envisioned a career in politics before settling into his real
estate career.
The Minneapolis-based Berg was Coldwell Banker Burnet’s No. 1 ranked
sales associate in 2012, with more than $50 million in sales. He is a
Coldwell Banker President’s Premier and Society of Excellence member
and has more than $1.5 billion in sales during his career.
Berg remains politically active and is involved with numerous community
organizations in addition to being an avid traveler and accomplished
musician. He is on the board of directors of the MacPhail Center for Music.
What I most enjoy about real estate: It truly is the people. I’ve been
inside a lot of fabulous homes over the years, but there’s a point at which
the homes are secondary to the lives of the people you’re dealing with. I’ve
never thought of myself as selling, I’ve thought of myself as helping people
address their housing needs.
Favorite place to visit: That’s hard to answer. If I thought of those places
that really took me by surprise, I’d have to use as an example Israel. I
went on a two-week adventure tour there a year ago and I had no idea
that in a country of such relatively small size there would be as many
amazing things to do, from sea kayaking and rappelling to water hikes.
And Jerusalem was just an amazing city to visit. If I think of other places
that have been standouts in that way, I loved Istanbul and Vietnam. The
Vietnamese people were among the happiest, most beautiful people I’ve
ever met and the country was stunning.
The music I most enjoy: Jazz. I love jazz because it’s improvisational and
free form and complex. But I love almost all kinds of music.
Favorite musical instrument: The piano. Even though as a sophomore in
high school I was invited to play with the Minnesota Orchestra, which as a
violinist was a great recognition, but I turned it down because I was going
to boarding school and thought I would never be a professional violinist.
The piano is what gives me the greatest satisfaction. I’ll just sit and play
whatever comes out of my head and heart. It’s incredibly therapeutic.
What I treasure: My health, both mental and physical. And the quality
of my relationships with my children.
If not in real estate I would: Develop my own think tank to deal with
public policy issues, or I would like to have the time to write, both fctional
and nonfctional.
What I’m reading: I love reading political biographies and I’m fnishing
“The Worst Hard Time,” about the Great Depression and Dust Bowl.
Best advice: Being comfortable inside your own skin with the role you
have to play and the counsel you have to provide as a Realtor is essential. I
view myself as someone who needs to be able to give honest and objective
professional counsel to my clients.

ironwood dining room table or out by the
inﬁnity-edge pool, the property offers numerous
centers of activity.
“The pool and the courtyard decks around
it are my favorite, but then I move and ﬁnd many
more throughout the house,” Avalos says. “[It’s]
full of favorite places and for guests’ moods,
preferences [and] tastes.”
Throughout the entire process, Avalos often
compared the home to “a beautiful woman.” He
even had a passionate explanation for why the
home should have ornate railing.
“He said to us, ‘The railing is the jewelry on
a beautiful woman; you don’t want to skimp on
it,’” Hites says.
That attention to detail is everywhere in
the home; the steps are short and wide so that
climbing them isn’t tiring; all of the rooms on
the ﬁrst ﬂoor are pocket doors to seamlessly
open the entire ﬂoor; the master bath has a
magniﬁcent view that can be seen whether
you’re in the tub, in the shower or at the sink.
Hites’ favorite “little detail,” however, is the
way the main level is built to offer 180-degree
unobstructed views throughout the length of the
house. A series of small steps hoists each room
a little higher than the next, allowing this to be
possible.
“If you’re in the pool table room you still
have an incredible view of Land’s End because
of the steps. If the entire thing is on one level,
anyone in the pool table room would have an
obstructed view,” Hites says. “It’s brilliant.”

building his dream home. Almost 10 years
and dozens of ﬂoor plans later, Hites and his
wife still hadn’t found “the one.” That changed
the second they met architect Jacinto Avalos.
“We had bought [another] house in Cabo and
were astounded by the simple design features,”
Hites says, recalling how even the home’s
windows had seemingly perfect placement.
When Hites learned Avalos had worked on 80
percent of the home, he immediately decided to
meet with the architect regarding the empty lot.
“[Avalos] spent an hour or an hour and a
half asking us about things we like and don’t
like, things we want and don’t want,” Hites says.
“Then, he said, ‘I want to spend time on the lot
and see what it tells me.’ I thought, ‘I like that.’”
Avalos’ holistic approach was exactly what
Hites needed. When Avalos submitted his ﬂoor
plan to the Hites, they “absolutely fell in love
with it.”
“We were hands-on all the way,” Hites
says. “And, we were on so much the same
wavelength. He’d send off an e-mail with some
different options, along with his suggestion.
Every item he suggested would be the one
we’d pick. Toward the end, we said, ‘Jacinto,
whatever you think is right.’”
Other than tweaking a closet here and some
outdoor space there, Hites changed virtually
nothing, he adds.
“The ﬁrst requirement on the owner´s list
was that the house had to have a WOW effect,”
says Avalos. “[My goal was] to design a house
that could handle a large crowd in a social event,
be a family retreat, and also be a home able to
function for just a couple or a small family.”
With eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms and
24,000 square feet, there’s no denying the
home, now on the market for $20 million, is
an entertainer’s dream. Whether it’s inside on

EZE- SUR- MER, ON THE FRENCH RI VI ERA
VILLA
MARGUERITE
BY RICHARD A. GOODWIN
On a hillside overlooking the sea,
this exquisite estate offers a lifestyle
of comfort, privacy and pleasure.
On
the French Riviera, location is everything, and in that regard
the setting for the magnifcent Villa Marguerite immediately
establishes this as a property of distinction. While Cannes and
St. Tropez typically capture the headlines on the “Côte d’Azur,” the ancient
village of Eze, with its 12th century castle and panoramic setting high above
the sea, is, for many, a place where the charms of the French Riviera come
to life. The grounds surrounding the imposing residence of Villa Marguerite
encompass two and one-half hillside acres that have been designed and land-
scaped to have the feel of a private park. The backdrop for the estate is nothing
short of spectacular: breathtaking Mediterranean Sea views that stretch from
the Bay of Monaco to the Cap Ferrat. In fact, both Monaco and St. Jean Cap
Ferrat are a mere fve minutes away; yet, once you pass through the iron entry
gates and enter Villa Marguerite’s idyllic grounds, you are likely to feel as if
you are in a world unto itself.
The villa offers approximately 800 square meters of interior living space
that has been entirely refurbished, equipped and fnished to the highest of
standards, both in workmanship and materials. The mood is one of comfort-
able luxury. On display throughout are handsome molding and ceiling treat-
ments, intricate chandeliers, richly crafted woodwork and fooring, and beau-
tifully detailed hardware. The wrought iron work that adorns the staircase and
landings adds its own unique fair to the layout, and, as the setting demands,
there are myriad large windows on all three levels to capture the spellbinding
sea views.
The public areas of the villa set just the right tone for fabulous evenings
of entertaining. The triple reception room with freplace and the formal din-
ing room are not only spacious in size, they also both open to the outdoors,
creating the ideal fow for a summertime gala. The master suite was conceived
to be a private personal retreat, and it delivers with two dressing rooms, two
complete baths, a large offce and a TV room with freplace. In total, there
are seven bedrooms, each with en suite baths and dressing areas. The kitchen,
complemented by a pantry and staff dining room, is fully equipped to meet
all family and entertaining needs, and there is even an elevator servicing the
three levels.
The outdoor spaces are no less impressive. From the infnity-edge pool,
Jacuzzi and pool house with kitchen and summer dining room, to the many
patios and al fresco sitting and dining areas, this is a property that takes full
advantage of its view-studded setting. There is even a funicular that climbs
the steep cliff and transports guests up to a terrace with a stunning panorama.
Lush plantings and towering palm trees contribute to the park-like ambience,
as do the statuary, large classic fountain and koi pond. Completing the estate
are a hammam, garage parking for eight cars, and a separate staff lodge accom-
modating three people.
When you consider the visionary design and master craftsmanship that
have gone into the remaking of this magnifcent villa overlooking the sea,
combined with its choice location in one of the French Riviera’s most enchant-
ing villages, it is easy to understand why this is considered to be one of the
fnest properties currently available in all of France.

A MODERN MARVEL IN
OLD NEW ENGLAND
ATTENTI ON TO DETAI L MAKES THI S WATERFRONT ESTATE
A RARE OFFERI NG I N THI S SEASI DE TOWN.
BY KI RSTEN NI PER
46 | Homes & Estates
Hingham, Massachusetts, founded in 1633, is a seaside
town that is anchored in the past, yet has an eye to the future
with extensive conservation efforts.
Home to many restaurants, shops and only a half an hour
from Boston by car, train or boat, the highlight of this town is,
of course, the ocean and Hingham Harbor.
That is where this 2.29-acre, Bare Cove Lane estate can
be found, sited along the harbor and just moments from
World’s End, a 251-acre conservation area that is managed
by the town.
Designed by Thomas Catalano of Catalano Architects
with a nod to the past, yet suited for modern living, this
9,908-square-foot home boasts details that the eye cannot
even see, adding to the uniqueness of this property.
“This home is one of the rare, newer construction homes that
sit along the waterfront,” says Tara Coveney, with Coldwell Banker
Residential Brokerage, who is listing the home for $8.5 million.
One of the home’s most important aspects is its energy
efﬁcient features, many which cannot be seen. Instead of the
usual 2-by-4 construction (resulting in a 4-inch space between
the walls for insulation), this home uses 2-by-8 beams, leaving
8 inches for insulation, which in this house is foam. Add to that
a geothermal heating/cooling system, radiant ﬂoor heat and
many HVAC zones, and the “green” will add up in more ways
than one.
Another detail that makes a major difference is the slate
roof. The usual slate roof is three-eighths of an inch thick. But
for this home, the slate used is ﬁve-eighths of an inch thick.
The heavier tiles required steel-framed rafters to support
the extra weight. Upgrades such as these take conventional
construction methods and bring them to new levels.
The details that are visible are well thought-out and
intricate.
The hurricane-strength wind-resistant windows of the
home feature pull-down screens, so as to not impede the view.
“I’ve never seen anything like it,” says Coveney, “most homes
just have the standard screens that you look out of with the
window open or shut.”
Another favorite detail of Coveney’s? The “fabulous,
detailed millwork in every room throughout the home. It’s
a masterful display of very high-quality construction and
exceptional design.”
All of the bathrooms have marble throughout and boast
basket-weave tiled ﬂoors. Two master suites, one on each
level, and an elevator are featured as well.
Even the way the home is sited on the waterfront property
is well thought-out. The backyard faces west, so stunning
sunsets can be enjoyed. “You can even see the Boston skyline
from the second ﬂoor,” adds Coveney.
Stone terraces, a Coveney favorite, lead down to the
lawn, which features a gunite pool, and then to the 200 feet
of water frontage on the harbor—which, ultimately, makes this
signiﬁcant home that much more valuable.

The owner of this
estate designed her
home to be both
grand and peaceful.
Gracious
LIVING
FOX CHAPEL, PENNSYLVANI A
I
In 1999, Susan Hayes captured a moment of design inspiration on an
unlikely canvas, sketching what would be the first blueprints of her
French Normandy estate on a white, paper napkin.
Hayes enlisted the help of a noted architect, and luxury homebuilder
Peter Perkins of Peter Perkins Inc. to construct a fully custom, Provincial-
style home based on the drawing. Two years later, Hayes’ sketch
manifested into the 7,200-square-foot vision of elegance now standing
on almost 2 acres in Fox Chapel, Pa.—the home she and her family have
enjoyed since its completion in 2002.
“I’ve been told my home is warm, happy, loving and peaceful, and you
feel it when you walk in,” says Hayes. “It’s gracious and comfortable, but
not overly formal. You can come in and feel warmth.”
Hidden by fully grown trees and adjacent to an additional 3 acres
of forest, the cobblestone driveway leading to the home gives way to a
world of architectural wonder inside. The edge of every wall and corner
has been rounded, and arched entryways lead to rooms with decorative
enclaves built into the wall, embodying an Old World feel among a home
filled with contemporary features. The 9-foot ceilings of the upper level,
where natural light floods through elevated windows, adds to the feeling
of grandeur established throughout the main and lower level, while high-
tech security cameras, high-end appliances, custom zoned sound systems
and other electronics bring you back to the 21st century.
“The main level is 10 feet, with 8-foot doors throughout.” Hayes says.
“I wanted tall ceilings upstairs because the windows in new homes are
low, whereas mine are high above your head.”
But the estate is just as much a personal museum for Hayes, who
studied art history at Williams College, as it is a masterpiece of custom
design work. The high ceilings provide the space needed to display the
large paintings and sculptures collected over the years, according to
Hayes.
102 | Homes & Estates
“I was always interested in the creative process,” she says. “I wanted
to find a way to display art that highlights the furniture…and I wanted
to display the furniture artistically.”
The continuity in the design was an element Hayes intentionally
incorporated into her home. Traces of the same color scheme, identical
finishes and the same carpeting can be found throughout each level and
in every room. For instance, the color used on the walls of her daughter’s
room is the same color as the molding in the basement. The cabinetry in
the laundry room matches the cabinetry in the kitchen, and even minor
details such as faucets and doorknobs are the same throughout the home.
“Everything was selected as a commonality, a common thread, and
it’s more appealing and easy on the eye,” she says.
Listing agent Michael Stadtlander of Coldwell Banker Real Estate

European sophistication and Florida informality
coexist at this lakefront estate in Orlando.
Lakefront Luxury
BY ROGER GRODY
L
ocated steps from prestigious Lake Nona Golf & Country Club, this
sprawling Mediterranean home occupies a generous one-and-a-half-
acre lot on scenic Buck Lake. Represented by Coldwell Banker’s
Mick Night and John Pinel, the custom-built home blends a refned
European quality with quintessential Florida informality.
“I’ve sold quite a few homes in this price range, and this is defnitely
one of the strongest I’ve ever seen,” reports Night, a 25-year veteran of
the Orlando luxury market. He explains the 24-hour, guard-gated
neighborhood—downtown Orlando, the airport, a world-class medical
center and iconic resorts are all within a short drive—is one of the two
most desirable in the entire metropolitan area. Because there are only
fve lakefront homes on 125-acre Buck Lake and none on neighboring
Lake Nona, this property’s rare waterfront access adds a premium to
its $4.975 million listing price. The home’s combination of lakefront
living and proximity to championship golf is particularly appealing,
says Night.
Arriving at a fountain-laden motor court, one is immediately
conscious of the formidable size of this home, but Night insists it never
feels overwhelming. “This house has generously proportioned rooms but
even with 10,000 square feet, it has the warmth of a Mediterranean-style
home,” he maintains. Upon entering, guests fnd themselves in a grand
foyer connecting the ground foor’s common areas. With 13-foot ceilings
and rich travertine foors inlaid with walnut, formal spaces are gracious,
but approachable. The expansive grounds include a pool complete with spa

fountain and fre pit, as well as a long boardwalk leading to a private boathouse.
The two-story house was built by Cahill Homes, one of the most
prominent custom builders in Orlando. “The vision for this home was to
create a European-style estate, spacious and elegant enough to host great
gatherings, as well as take advantage of the lake views,” explains Cahill
Vice President Judd Webster. He suggests the home’s design, segmented
to allow for diverse experiences, was primarily driven by the unique
location of the lot. “Lake Nona Golf & Country Club features the best
of both privacy and convenience,” he says, which explains why the gated
community has attracted professional golfers like Annika Sörenstam,
Ernie Els and Sergio Garcia. “You’re able to step out of your back door and
experience the privacy and beauty of ‘Old Florida,’ and yet be less than 10
miles away from Orlando International Airport,” adds Webster.
Night applauds Cahill Homes on its natural-fowing foor plans,
which typically provide the master suite and secluded guest quarters on
the frst foor, while expanding all bedrooms into full suites. In this home,
the agent points to the versatile game room on the second foor as a prime
example of the builder’s propensity to provide valuable bonus spaces. Its
panoramic windows and terrace offer views of the resort-caliber pool and
still Buck Lake, buffered by a dense stand of trees.
The kitchen is rustically elegant, with a beamed ceiling, massive
granite-topped island, appliances worthy of a Michelin-starred chef, and
custom-made cabinets from legendary Florida craftsman Jack Busby. That
kitchen services a dining room with an ornamental tray ceiling, muraled
walls and soaring windows. It’s formal enough for any occasion, yet retains
its connection with the laid-back Florida lifestyle.
A freplace, private lanai and adjoining library contribute to the
splendor of the master suite. This grand retreat encompasses a lavish
bathroom with a huge pedestal tub and cavernous marble-sheathed shower
enclosure. One of the home’s major wow factors is a lavish birch-clad dressing
room spread over two foors connected by its own sweeping wrought

iron-railed staircase.
“Historically, Lake Nona has attracted national and international
buyers,” says Night, who reports interest from successful entrepreneurs,
professional athletes and globetrotting Europeans. “But as it’s become
more established, it’s also become more family friendly,” adds the
veteran agent.

he Ritz-Carlton Residences on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile is
an exclusive 40-story, 89-home residential tower and private
city club in the heart of the Magnificent Mile, combining
spacious, finely detailed living areas with the legendary service of The
Ritz-Carlton.
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Chicago ref lect the finest qualities
of five-star living: world-class architecture, spectacular views and the
kind of pampering only a staff trained and managed by the Ritz-Carlton
organization could provide. The location is the best on Chicago’s
legendary Magnificent Mile and the attention to details, amenities and
service are uncompromising.
Although it bears the Ritz-Carlton name, this is an exclusive
private residential building with staff that includes everything from an
elegantly dressed white-gloved doorman and valet parkers, to a polished
concierge team, a team of Ritz-Carlton trained building managers and
a five-star in-house private chef. “The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Chicago
was designed for those who expect exceptional service in an elegant and
distinctive home environment,” says Bruce Schultz, managing principal
of Prism Development Company, which built the tower.
Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage is the exclusive broker
representing the building and will market this magnificent property
through Coldwell Banker Previews International. Craig Hogan,
Previews Luxury Director in Chicago, adds, “The Residences provide all
the quality and the incredible feeling one expects of the Ritz-Carlton.”
The Art Moderne-inspired tower was designed by French-born
architect Lucien Lagrange, who has left his
imprint on the Chicago skyline through a
portfolio of ultra-luxury residential high-rises.
Integrated into the development is the historic
Farwell Building, whose 1927 limestone façade
was meticulously dismantled, restored and
re-assembled for perpetuity. “We’re thrilled to
have that beautiful piece of history still a part
of this magnificent residence,” says Schultz, who
appreciates the city’s rich architectural heritage.
The Art Deco Farwell ref lects an era when
Michigan Avenue was just emerging as Chicago’s
most elegant and sophisticated street—the birth
of the Magnificent Mile. The Ritz-Carlton
Residences, with its articulated limestone piers,
decorative forest green spandrels and courses of
balconies with gracefully rounded corners, is
evocative of that golden age, yet fully represents
the heights of what Chicago’s Magnificent Mile has
become. With its highly ornamental, illuminated
crown, the building assumes a prominent place on
the Chicago skyline.
Schultz points to the Landmark Club,
occupying an entire f loor of the tower, as an example of the fusion
of design and service for his discriminating residents. “Considerable
expense was incurred to raise the level of finishes found in the
Landmark Club, creating a two-story, f loor-to-ceiling wood-paneled
Grand Ballroom and Boardroom, while accentuating common areas
with museum-quality fine art,” he reports. Encompassed within the
fully staffed Landmark Club are private dining rooms, a wine bar with
private wine lockers, movie theatre, billiards room, full-service spa and
fitness facilities.
“The same intense focus and attention to detail was paid to the
residences,” insists Schultz, who notes each condominium features
natural stone finishes, high-end fixtures in the bathrooms, de
Giulio-designed kitchens with Viking and Sub-Zero/Wolf appliances,
and private balconies from which to experience Michigan Avenue. Each
unit was designed to maximize iconic Chicago skyline views, plus vistas
of Lake Michigan from higher f loors.
Everywhere in the building, service fully complements design.
Hogan reports 15-20 staff members are available to residents at all times,
summoned through state-of-the-art technology by the tap of a touchpad
or smart phone. “Those who have experienced Ritz-Carlton service
understand why and how The Ritz-Carlton Residences is distinguished
from any other luxury residential tower in Chicago,” says Schultz.
Prices range from $1.9 million for one-bedroom units to
$13-14 million for 6,000-square-foot penthouses. Hogan reports most
buyers are from Chicago’s aff luent North Shore suburbs, downsizing to
a pied-à-terre in the heart of town. He also notes strong interest among
international buyers from Asia, South America and Europe, all seeking
lavish amenities and a sense of exclusivity.
Schultz reinforces the philosophy behind the building’s
comprehensive lifestyle package. “The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Chicago
has a very specific type of buyer—one who may choose to live anywhere,
expects the absolute best in service, amenities and space, and recognizes
the value of all of those things.”

ranslated, “Hale Kahakai” means “Beach House.” Simple in
name, yet this Oahu, Honolulu, Hawaii oasis is not your average
beach house.
The four years preceding the building of this North Shore trophy
estate were spent collecting Chinese and Japanese antiques, visualizing
and conceptualizing the most Zen-like and private design, and ensuring
safety through the most high-tech security system. The antiques, as
well as artwork, crystal and chinaware are included in the $22 million
list price.
“This house has it all,” says listing agent Anne Hogan Perry of
Coldwell Banker Pacific Properties. “Everything a buyer needs to just
walk in and start enjoying paradise.”
Situated on Papailoa Road—a small enclave of beach houses with
prime beach frontage—Hale Kahakai is positioned on the point of
Papailoa to capture coastal vistas from Kaena Point to Waimea Bay.
And to maximize the views, the living room features a glass wall that
opens to the pool and ocean.
“You are literally right there with the turtles who love to sunbathe
along this section of the beach,” says Perry. She adds that the beach
house is as secluded as any property on a neighboring island, yet a short
drive to the cosmopolitan lifestyle and amenities of Honolulu.
The privacy and extraordinary detailing both inside and out are
unmatched. Take for instance your initial embark onto the property.
“As you enter the copper entrance gate your eyes f low from the lush
lawn, to the entry pavilion and bridge, to the views of the main house
and ocean beyond,” describes Perry.
The lawn and garden side of the property is complemented by an
infinity-edge pool, providing a “stunning water element,” says Perry.
“The pool was designed as a natural extension of the main house, which
seems to f loat above the landscaping,” add Hale Kahakai’s owners.
That’s not all that will catch your eye. How about the 800-year-old
Buddha in the property’s pond? “We have a particular sensitivity to
that which is culturally and aesthetically in harmony with the island,”
boast the owners. “Much of the art and koa furniture was commissioned
by Hawaii’s premier artists and woodworkers.”
Care was also taken in the home’s exterior design, which was
modeled after the Honolulu Museum of Art and features coral-
embedded pillars designed after Architect Vladimir Ossipoff ’s work at

the Outrigger Canoe Club and the Pacifc Club
in Honolulu. Once inside, note that you have not
left the property’s native plants, trade winds or
beauty far behind.
“The seamless integration of outside and
inside living was top of mind throughout
all aspects of the construction,” explain the
owners. The home’s 3,800-plus square feet of
lanais help to accomplish this.
As you continue through the beachfront
residence, notice the grand room’s curved koa
staircase and massive pocket doors opening to
the pool; rich koa wood f loors and cabinets;
custom lighting; and entire second-f loor
master wing with both ocean and mountain
views; and stone f loors. “Though quarried in
Italy, the stone presents the natural softness of
sand,” add the owners.
Such a compound deserves the ultimate
in privacy and security. For starters, the
property includes a separate guesthouse and an
apartment above the garage. “The apartment
over the garage was initially designed to be
used by a live-in caretaker,” say the owners.
“However, the entire property uses smart
technology and therefore does not require a
resident caretaker.”
“This property is for the person who
wants to unplug, unwind and just appreciate
the natural beauty around them, yet have the
infrastructure and understated elegance that
Hale Kahakai offers,” says Perry.
“To maximize the views,
the living room
features a glass wall
that opens to the pool
and ocean.”

M
useum-like galleries, luxurious fnishes, elegant lighting,
an indoor/outdoor feel and feng shui energy are just a few
of the features found in this original architectural home in
Pacifc Palisades, Calif.
“I wanted to make sure we were building an architectural home that
would also be livable,” says homeowner Blair Pence, who collaborated
with icon Richard Keating and Steven Giannetti in the construction.
“The living room is two stories high with 28-foot ceilings and you
can see the different elements of architecture come in from different
angles,” says Pence. “You get a great sense of what the house is about.”
Listing agent Joyce Rey of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage
agrees. “I love the entry. When you walk in you can see the living
room and have this beautiful limestone staircase. You have a dramatic
impression from the moment you walk into the house.”
The L-shaped home is strategically placed upon the 1.3-acre site
for optimum views. It emanates an institutional-like quality, drawing
comparisons to the Getty Center from its construction.
“It is designed to really showcase works of art,” says Pence. “Because
of its use of structural steel constructing the home, it has a lot of
glass, yet still plenty of wall space.”
One of Pence’s favorite rooms, the dining room, also incorporates
glass into its design.
“The glass panels were custom-fabricated for this home, and there is
one long piece of curved glass in particular that is half the perimeter
of the room that is quite striking,” says Pence.
The glass details, which include the full height glass pocket
doors, mesh with the water features of the home, creating a serene
energy fow. Understanding the importance of water, Pence created
3 fountains that drop into a pool, fowing right into the house.
Continuing the feng shui energy, the backyard has a long lap pool
and a lily-flled fountain for a peaceful aura.
The home manages energy in the most effcient way, by design
that directs energy to where it can be used most effectively with
advanced technology.
The $19.8 million home also has a unique wine cellar that can hold
about 10,000 bottles.
“It is all climate controlled and, literally, like a concrete bunker
underneath the house,” says Pence, who designed it based on European
construction in older structures. “We built it in a more traditional sense
with vaulted ceilings. It is almost like going into a cloister. The colors
and materials are similar but older, so you have a feeling like there has
always been something here.”
And, because the lot was so large, Pence specifcally set the home
back over double the amount a home normally would be. “By doing
that, we brought it closer to the best of the view corridors, so you can
have a canyon view as well as an ocean view,” says Pence. “We then
looked at the types of rooms and where they would be located in the
home so we could maximize the exposure to the rooms that are most
used. The master bedroom has the greatest views in the home, because
you are there everyday.”
Within a gracious and wooded environment, the home offers a
private, yet very open setting. “There is a combination of water and a
large backyard that is very serene and open, but you are surrounded by
woods for privacy,” says Pence.

EVERYONE’S FAVORITE
HOUSE IN SAUSALITO
Some homes are summed up simply by square footage; this house, while
having more than ample space, can be summed up with the word beautiful.
SAUSALI TO, CALI FORNI A
By Camilla McLaughlin
U
sually homes are celebrated because of a famous occupant or
notable architect, but in the instance of the Italian-inspired
Mediterranean at 42 San Carlos Way, the house is the star.
More than a stately presence, a prized location and stunning views make
this estate a standout among the contemporaries and shingle-style homes
that populate Sausalito’s hillsides. Instead, it’s charisma. Locals say it’s
the most beautiful house in town. “Everyone wants to know the story
of this property,” says Christopher Nakagawa, a partner at the Susan
Hewitt Luxury Group at Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage.
Owner Sherri Corker is no exception. “I always loved coming up to
San Carlos and seeing this house, which is framed by two huge heritage
oak trees, both easily over 100 years old. The whole setting overlooking
the bay is very private and the oaks make the house look like it has
been there forever, but it hasn’t,” she says.
Thirteen years ago, just as she was considering an addition to her
existing home, Corker, who is an architect, ran across an ad for San Carlos
Way. “I didn’t even care about the inside because I thought it was such a
beautifully sited house. I thought it had so much integrity,” she recalls.
Once inside, Corker knew some work was in order, but she also fell in
love with the gorgeous architecture and finishes such as the Mexican
Saltillo tiles and aged-distressed cedar used for the floors and trim.
The interior is magnificent, filled with graceful details and nuances
such as a quatrefoil window looking out to the domed foyer or small
iron rosettes at the base of the trusses in the living room. “These little
architectural details knock your socks off,” shares Nakagawa.
San Carlos Way happens to fall into the sought-after “banana belt,”
the warmest, least windy and least foggy of Sausalito’s microclimates.
“The lot itself is one of the largest in the area,” adds Susan Hewitt,
who is listing the home with Monica Pauli (both with Coldwell Banker
Residential Brokerage) for $4.995 million. Also unique for Sausalito
is being able to walk out to a patio, deck or a garden from every level.
“The house has amazing views of San Francisco Bay, Angel Island
and the city skyline, but you couldn’t see it from the family room
or kitchen,” Corker recalls. One of the frst things she did was open
a viewport from the family room looking through the kitchen to San
Francisco Bay. She also refurbished the kitchen and baths, and added a
wine cellar and a mosaic-tiled spa adjacent to the library. Antique French
limestone was imported for the master bath, while Nero Marquina
marble countertops and a custom Rojo Alicante backsplash enhanced the
kitchen. Corker adjusted the lighting, replacing forescent cove lighting
with soft, long-lasting xenon, and installed custom-made fxtures. In
spite of these additions, the home has a wonderful sense of authenticity
and majesty, testimony to how well Corker understands the house. Even
now she says the original builder and the designer keep in touch and
check in every once in a while to inquire about any recent changes.
“The funny thing about this house,” she adds, “no matter where I
go on vacation it almost feels like a downgrade.”

been even better than 2012,” says Kay Agney with
Higbie, Maxon, Agney Realtors in Grosse Pointe,
Mich. RE/MAX data shows Detroit prices increasing
by 44.4 percent in September 2013 over September
2012. Still, Agney emphasizes, things might be sell-
ing, but buyers are still getting phenomenal deals.
Like many Midwestern metros, the tipping
point for properties in Cleveland came this spring.
“All of a sudden we had sellers saying, ‘I am not
selling until I fnd my next house.’ Before that they
wouldn’t consider looking for a house until they had
sold their existing property,” explains Ryan Young
with Keller Williams Realty.
“Steady” is the one word brokers frequently
use when they refer to local markets, and the fact
that the Midwest is a traditional market is key to un-
derstanding real estate in the region. “I feel like our
market is probably one of the most stable markets in
the country. We never went down as much as New
York and California,” explains Nemerovski.
Factors that drive prices in other regions are
absent here. With the exception of Chicago, foreign
buyers are few. Even though they might spend a few
months in warmer climates, residents stay close
to home when they retire. “We aren’t a destination
area. We’re not Florida, Arizona or California. People
are here because they were born here or they were
transferred here to make a living,” says Dennis Wolfe,
CEO of Hunter & Hall Realtors.
“We’ve never been an investor market or
a speculative market. Tat means we might have
missed something on the way up, but it’s certainly
helped us on the way down,” says Ted Dentice, vice
president and general sales manager at Shorewest
Realtors in Wisconsin.
All of this makes for a very traditional bot-
tom-up recovery that began with lower-priced resi-
dences and perked up to the high end. Te excep-
tion, according to Wolfe, is his market, where the
mid- and upper-end was the driving force for what
has become an across-the-board recovery.
Tat Minneapolis was ahead of many other
areas nationally became evident to Barb Jandric,
president of Edina Realty, during monthly confer-
ence calls with other Home Services of America
brokers. “We started to see the trend frst in the city,”
in areas that have always been in high demand, she
explains. Ten it slowly moved out to the frst ring
suburbs and now, she says, “we’re starting to see
stabilization in the second-tier suburbs.” Sales of
traditional homes (rather than distressed proper-
ties) have come up a great deal and now comprise
a much larger percentage of the overall market. Te
luxury market and new construction are the two
fnal metrics they are watching for the market to
be 100 percent back, she says. With sales of homes
priced above $500,000 up 30 percent in 2013, current
indicators for luxury are positive.
Milwaukee’s recovery started in the second
half of 2012 with overall sales up 24 percent. Te
frst eight months of 2013 racked up an additional
13-percent increase. Inventories are back to a fve-
to six-month supply, which is considered a balanced
market.
“In the beginning, the recovery saw a lot
of frst-time buyers coming out,” explains Tamara
Maddente, executive vice president of the First
Weber Group in Milwaukee. As distressed invento-
ries dwindled, people began moving up. Tis year,
she says, the upper brackets are selling. Another
positive — the amount of negotiating taking place
in each transaction has decreased. “Even if buyers
start lower, they’ll come up and pay close to the ask-
ing prices. Tat’s something we didn’t see so much
last year and I hear the same thing is happening
throughout the Midwest.”
In St. Louis, sales in 2012 began to build,
clearing out distressed inventory, according to John
Ryan, with Coldwell Banker Gundaker. But the tip-
ping point for strong sales and multiple ofers didn’t
come until 2013. “We saw it at the beginning of the
spring market. It just came on with a bang. It wasn’t
gradual,” says Maria Elias, also with Coldwell Banker
Gundaker.
“Tis summer felt like 2006 all over again,”
shares Susan Raimondo with Keller Williams Lux-
ury Homes in St. Louis. Still, many afuent own-
ers believe the market needs more time to recover.
“Tey are kind of riding out their time to see what

next year holds,” she observes. Overall, St. Louis
hits the mid-point on price appreciation amounts
among the top 20 metropolitan areas, according to
FNC’s residential price index.
Markets still have their share of outliers,
which is what Young calls potential sellers waiting
on the fringes for prices to recover. But even these
would-be sellers are beginning to soften as prices
increase.
Along Lake Michigan’s coast, prices for re-
sort homes haven’t changed dramatically. “Most of
these homes aren’t mortgaged, and they have been
in families for years,” so the incentive to sell isn’t
there,” explains Elsea. “What’s happened is the mar-
ket has risen back enough so prices are getting to a
level sellers want,” even though they are not back to
pre-recession levels.
What astonishes Michigan agents is how
quickly the market has recovered. Elsea uses the ex-
ample of a resort property or a home in Bloomfeld,
which would have sold for $800,000 not too long
ago. “If the sellers had just waited two years they
would have gone from $800,000 to $1.1 million. Te
return on waiting was massive because the rebound
happened so quickly. But at the time, you just didn’t
know it. When you are sitting in the bottom of the
well, it looks like a long way up.”
Troughout the Midwest, relocation buyers
are undergoing a subtle change. Corporate reloca-
tions are beginning to recover, but cities such as
Cleveland and St. Louis are seeing a shift, with medi-
cal professionals accounting for a growing share of
these moves, as are universities. St. Louis has also
become a center for fnancial services and a grow-
ing tech market.
Newcomers to all these cities are apt to be
surprised by what they have to ofer — major league
sports teams, symphonies, renowned zoos and a
strong cultural life. And all these resources are more
accessible than in New York or Los Angeles. Ryan
also points out that it is much easier for newcom-
ers to become involved in the cultural and philan-
thropic life of the city.
Luxury in Cleveland often taps out at $200
per square foot, and relocating buyers coming from
places where luxury is in the $500-per-square-foot-
and-up range are usually “wowed by the prices,” ob-
serves Young. “Tere is so much value here,” he says,
that they see no need to spend more money.
Te recession and downturn reset luxury
gauges in many cities, moving the threshold for the
high end below the $1 million benchmark. As al-
ways, what is considered luxury depends on the city
and the property. “If you are spending $500,000 for
a one-bedroom condominium residence with ample
square footage in a spectacular setting, obviously
that is luxury,” says Nemerovski.
What buyers want seems to be in transition,
and often depends on the location. Some brokers
say buyers are once again looking for larger homes;
others say they want smaller homes. Overall though,
most agree that wealthy buyers today are more con-
servative, lifestyle oriented and bring greater expec-
tations into the marketplace.
“For a while, it was a detriment if that house
was too large. Now, we’re seeing people coming back
in and feeling comfortable buying large houses again.
Not that they are making statements,” says Agney.
Troughout the region, buyer preferences
are similar to what is playing out across the U.S.,
with updated or new homes taking precedence over
older properties that need work. Locations close to
town, which in many cases might be a suburb, are
also in demand.
Traditionally, sales slow in the fall. Nation-
ally, appreciation has begun to taper of. It’s not hap-
pening everywhere in the Midwest, but it is in cities
such as St. Louis and Ann Arbor. Some are taking
this as a positive sign.
“Te canary in the coal mine,” is the way
Elsea describes Ann Arbor’s market, which he says
is typically one of the frst in Michigan to recover.
Appreciation here has settled down to 8 percent,
after a recent high of 18 percent. Elsea believes this
is a good indication of the next stage of the recovery,
getting back to a normal sales pace.
Are we there yet? Overall, real estate is still
recovering, but tremendous gains have been made
in the last two years, especially in the Midwest.
MINNEAPOLIS
“If the sellers had just waited
two years they would have
gone from $800,000 to
$1.1 million. Te return on
waiting was massive because
the rebound happened so
quickly. But at the time, you
just didn’t know it. When you
are sitting in the bottom of the
well, it looks like a long way up. ”

Closing

At 31, Karim Souki is now the vice president of development for Aspen’s top-ranked real estate company.
K
arim Souki is a relative newcomer at Coldwell Banker Mason Morse
Real Estate in Aspen, but when he first arrived he saw familiar
faces.
As a child, Souki visited Aspen regularly after his father moved
there in 1986. Souki relocated to Aspen 15 months ago and earlier this
year became vice president of development at Mason Morse following
its purchase by Ajax Holdings, a private investment group for which he
is managing director.
“My dad lived here from the time I was 4,” says Souki, who worked
previously as a financial analyst for investment firms in London and
Miami, and got an MBA at the University of Denver. “Some of the brokers
here, I grew up knowing. We have a broker here who was a ski instructor
that I knew when I was 6 or 7 years old. And some of the people I didn’t
know, it turns out we all have mutual friends.
“It’s an interesting dynamic to go from a big city like Miami or Den-
ver to a place where everyone knows each other a little more. Everyone
puts a little more of their emotion and heart into projects because people
they know well are relying on them or are in it with them.”
Mason Morse was founded in 1961 and is the oldest real estate firm
in the Roaring Fork Valley. The company has 70 brokers in six locations,
with the newest office opening after the acquisition by Ajax Holdings.
Will Herndon, the president and CFO, runs the day-to-day operations
while managing broker John Wendt and Aspen office supervising broker
Jonathan Boxer are responsible for hiring and cultivating brokers. Kim
Briscoe handles marketing.
“I may not do a lot of day to day direct work, but in terms of driving
the direction, I play a large role,” says Souki. “When decisions in terms of
the long-term direction of the company need to be made — whether we
go on new recruiting campaigns, or open a new office, acquire another
brokerage — those are things where I’ll run numbers and look at the big
picture to see whether it makes sense for the company.”
Prior to joining Mason Morse, Souki was looking to use his skills in
new ways. He says working in real estate made sense.
“I spent my analytical career staring at the computer so someone
else could make decisions to do something,” says Souki. “I was thinking
about what I could do using my analytical skills, but have an end product
that I could touch and feel. Real estate was one of the easiest things to
transition into.
“This allows me a lot of latitude and entrepreneurship in what I’m
doing. I get to take ownership of the projects. To be able to be at the helm
of two really good companies is a lot of fun.”
The 31-year-old Souki remains an avid skier and enjoys a variety of
fitness activities. He ran a marathon — the first running race in which he
ever competed — and also has competed in triathlons.
“I was approached by someone to do the marathon to raise money
for cancer research, which is what made me do it,” says Souki, adding with
a laugh, “From there, I realized I don’t like running 26 miles too often.
“I like a lot of outdoor activities in general, but if I had to pick one
to always do for the rest of my life, skiing would be up there. Being in
Aspen allows me to do these kinds of things more regularly now.”
Karim Souki skied for
the first time at the age
of 3. Prior to moving to
Aspen, he made frequent
trips there to enjoy
the slopes.
