Inside Jared Kushner And Ivanka Trump’s Miami Beach Rental Condo, Hitting The Market For $18.8M Posted on December 12, 2022December 12, 2022 by Sarah Elles Boggs Change is in the air for the Kushners! Just two years after their time as Senior White House Advisors to the Trump Administration came to an end, Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump are preparing to end their stint as beachfront condo dwellers in the sleepy-yet-luxurious enclave of Surfside, Florida. The 7,000 square foot oceanfront duplex at Arte Surfside is being offered for sale at $18.8 million and is the last developer-represented home in the boutique development. The expansive pad is Residence 201 in the ultra-luxury development located at 8955 Collins Avenue and is truly one-of-a-kind with just under 7,000 square feet of air conditioned space and 1,500 square feet of private outdoor space with Brazilian Ipe decks and Roman travertine ceilings. Each of the rooms has sweeping views of the coastline, beach, and intracoastal canal with floor-to-ceiling Schuco insulated glass wall systems. They also feature European white oak flooring, European Lualdi interior doors, open-concept living, dining and entertainment areas with linear cove lighting and Roman travertine accent walls. There are six total bedrooms including one service suite, seven and a half baths, two living rooms and two custom-designed Poliform kitchens. The upper-level bedrooms are separated from the primary suite by a gourmet kitchen and formal living area. Each guest room has an ensuite bath and direct access to the wraparound terrace. The lower-level is reserved for social gatherings with an entertainment area, kitchenette, and a private stairway that provides convenient access to the pool area and beach. Arte Surfside 201 Living Room Arte Surfside 201 Kitchenette The duplex residence is accessible via private elevator with fingerprint technology and Arte is known as one of the most secure luxury developments in the area. With only 16 units, the owners in the building are well looked after. Amenities include pool and beach services, a tranquil meditation pond, rooftop tennis courts (adjacent amenity building), a high tech fitness center with a private yoga studio, 75-foot indoor heated lap pool, a wellness spa with sauna, steam rooms and dual locker rooms. The residents’ lounge offers a catering kitchen, kids’ playroom, a pet runway, valet parking, on-site butler, lifestyle concierge and a general manager. Beautifully designed by a collaboration of award-winning architects Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel and Kobi Karp and developed by Alex Sapir, Arte Surfside offers the most unique exterior architecture in South Florida complimented by sophisticated interiors with state-of-the-art finishes. Arte Surfside Condo Building Arte Surfside 201 Soaking Tub Arte Surfside 201 Oceanfront Bedroom If duplex residence 201 sells for the full asking price, it still will not be the only newsworthy sale in the small development. The lower penthouse sold this year for $22.5 million in crypto, making it the most luxurious real estate transaction completed with crypto. Additionally, the 3-level upper penthouse was purchased by a mystery New York financier for $33 million in 2020, just as Arte Surfside was opening. Jared and Ivanka are relocating to their new home in Miami Beach’s “Billionaire Bunker,” Indian Creek Island, where they will be greeted by Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen, who own two nearby homes in order to facilitate peaceful co-parenting. Among other people with rather un-humble abodes on the island include former Sears CEO Eddie Lampert; investor Carl Icahn; Jamie Galinski Baca, a Colombian banking magnate worth a reported $3.6 billion; Robert Diener, the co-founder of Hotels.com; Rakesh Gangwal, the former CEO of U.S. Airways and Mary Stephens Shula, the widow of former Miami Dolphins coach Don Shula. The entire island is private and gated with its own police force and an armed marine patrol that circles the island 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Arte in Surfside Residences: Surf’s Up After Record-Breaking January! Only 1 Condo Remains Posted on February 18, 2022February 19, 2022 by Sarah Elles Boggs After a whirlwind January, Arte in Surfside is left with just one remaining residence available for purchase. Residences 802 and 701 each closed within the last couple of weeks for higher than their asking price. It is easy to see why buyers would be interested in the ultra-luxury project. With only 12 floors and 16 waterfront condos, Arte is the ultimate of exclusivity. Owners in the development enjoy top-notch security, the ultimate level of privacy as well as lavish amenities. Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner even trusted the development with their children as they made an exodus to the Sunshine State. Arte Surfside 201 Oceanfront Terrace While Jared and Ivanka have since moved on to their new abode, there is plenty of demand at Arte Surfside. The most recent closing was Residence 701, which is a 3100+ square foot residence with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. It was listed for $11.9 million, yet sold for $12.25 million ($3,900/foot). Just a few days prior, Residence 802 sold for $11.2 million, also above asking price. Amazingly, Residence 201 is being offered at $2900/square foot, far less than the previous closings. It is a larger home, an almost 7,000 square foot duplex with 6 bedrooms and 7.5 baths and just shy of 1,500 square feet of terrace space. There is also private elevator entry, two kitchens, and an amazing park-like view of the pool and ocean from the private wraparound terraces (pictured above). Nearly every room in Arte #201 has an ocean view and private terrace access, but the primary suite offers a front row seat to the sparkling ocean (pictured below). Arte Surfside 201 Oceanfront Bedroom Perfect for entertaining, each floor of the residence is outfitted with a gourmet chef and kosher-friendly kitchen including Poliform cabinetry, Italian marble countertops, and Gaggenau appliances. To add to the entertainment vibe, the first level of the duplex has been designed to be an entertainment space, in the event that a large cocktail party (ahem ART BASEL) should arise. The second level is the more private area. Regardless of which level, the terrace access features Brazilian Ipe decking for seamless indoor/outdoor living on those fabulous Miami days and nights. Arte Surfside 201 Living Room Another feature that sets Arte Residence 201 aside from the rest is the fact that it is only one of two residences in in the development that features a private spiral staircase to the amenity level. This includes a spa, pool and private beach access. Additional amenities include a 75-foot indoor lap pool and wellness center for fitness. The wellness center features saunas, steam rooms, open-air meditation pond, yoga center, gym and rooftop tennis. There is also a residents’ lounge with a children’s playroom and full-service private beach access. In addition to the on-site amenities, the Arte also has a partnership with the Surf Club Four Seasons, where residents can order off their menu and have it delivered to their unit, pool or beachside. Just like a resort. “With 2022 already off to such a strong start, Residence 201 won’t be on the market for much longer,” said Alex Sapir, chairman of Sapir Corp LTD, whose Israel and New York-based subsidiary, SC 8955 LLC, developed the project. The design of the project lays with the internationally-renowned Italian architect Antonio Citterio. He was inspired by the Mediterranean lifestyle when he was designing the project and ensured that each residence and common space was tied to the outdoors in some way. Arte Residence also made headlines last year when it sold one of its penthouses for $22.5 million in cryptocurrency, a pioneering deal signaling a shift in how luxury real estate changes hands. This penthouse is now on the resale market for $28 million.
