As the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury team readies the release of our Mid-Year 2024 Report, one exciting story that is emerging from the 2024 data so far: renewed confidence among the ultra-wealthy.
Luxury sales over $10 million are happening. Ultra-affluent sellers are feeling more empowered to list their estates. Buyers are actively seeking to add extraordinary properties to their portfolios. These narratives have inspired us to take a look at the most distinguished properties marketed by the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury program at the moment. All five properties are priced over $45 million. Two of them are as-built new construction – yet another reminder of a trend that continues to have staying power this year – Have-It-All Properties. Proving themselves to be more discerning than ever, the wealthiest of buyers are deeply focused on seeking out the very best homes and living experiences right now and they are not willing to settle for anything less.
From a private 9-acre oasis on the coast of Florida to brand-new trophy estates in two of Southern California's most sought-after locations, this truly inspiring collection of properties reflects the enduring allure of real estate for those who want to live at the pinnacle of luxury.
Naples, Florida
100 Bay Rd | Naples, FL. 34102 | $295 Million
"There is nothing like it, anywhere," says listing agent Dawn McKenna of the sprawling 9-acre Florida waterfront property she calls "Gordon Pointe." Nestled in Naples' exclusive neighborhood of Port Royal, the supremely private oasis makes the most of its idyllic coastal setting along the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico with a private 231-foot yacht basin, an 111-foot T-dock and beach. What makes Gordon Pointe particularly extraordinary is its incomparable acreage and water frontage totaling 1,655 feet with both beach and bay frontage. "The future owner has a lot of flexibility," adds co-listing agent Christine Lutz. They could have a private and gated family compound with one primary home and two guest houses (already existing), or develop several special home sites separately.

Newport Coast, California
19 Del Mar | Newport Coast, CA. 92657 | $89 Million
When this brand-new custom Newport Coast residence is completed in 2025, "it will have no equal," say co-listing agents Tim Smith and Georgina Jacobson. From its extraordinary design, luxury indulgences and ocean views to its ultra-exclusive location in guard-gated Crystal Cove's separately-gated Estate Collection, it's nearly impossible to summarize all of the qualities that belong in the incomparable column. The masterpiece home, envisioned by architect Geoff Sumich, builder Ryan Hill of Hill Construction Co., and designer Errol Dejager, has been designed to accommodate approximately 14,958 square feet of sophisticated living and entertaining "showplace" that extends an impressive two levels below and two levels above ground. Beyond its five bedrooms, six baths, two half baths and indoor and outdoor pools, the future owner will enjoy unobstructed ocean, golf course, coastline, and evening-light views with a seamless indoor/outdoor experience from the elevated homesite. Meanwhile, the lowest floor offers another "wow" moment, courtesy of an indoor swimming pool with spa and waterfall, light shining through from the reflecting pool above, wet bar, and gym complete with a sauna and steam room, and a 7-vehicle car museum, accessible by lift from the garage above, together offering display of 13 cars.

Golden Beach, Florida
355 Ocean Blvd | Golden Beach, FL. 33160 | $85 Million
Living up to its billing as "the largest oceanfront estate in all of Miami," this Golden Beach trophy property impresses with 250 feet of white sand beach and ocean frontage on 1.5 sweeping acres. Awaiting the next owner are unparalleled views of sparkling blue waters of the Atlantic ocean, and the chance to build a dream estate or renovate the existing residence with approved plans for an elegant living space spanning up to 30,000 square feet defined by 10 bedrooms, soaring ceilings and ocean breezes. A second-to-none location in what listing agents Danny Hertzberg and Jill Hertzberg call a "serene coastal utopia" means that Golden Beach residents will be able to enjoy their own police force and marine patrol. And then there's the alluring promise of living just minutes from world-class shopping, dining, a private beachfront clubhouse and tennis courts.

Beverly Hills, California
9650 Cedarbrook Dr. | Beverly Hills, CA. 90210 | $68 Million
Rare is the compound with a Beverly Hills address; rarer still is the compound with two new residences currently under construction set on over 27.5 sweeping gated acres and on its own promontory just above Beverly Hills. Enter this architectural triumph of property. In every possible way, it represents the literal height of luxury – starting with the views, which extend to the Pacific Ocean and span the majestic hills, rugged canyons and millions of lights in the city below. Planned to be approximately 55,000 square feet, the four-level main residence maximizes these views with massive floor-to-ceiling windows and countless glass doors leading to outdoor patios, decks and vanishing-edge pools. Plans for the main residence call for a 36-person theater, a Turkish bath, wine cellar with tasting room, a hot yoga room and staff offices and quarters, plus a collector's garage with two turntables and almost 6,000 square feet. A second planned residence features a two-level design of approximately 23,000 square feet with a private garage of about 3,018 square feet. Both homes have been designed for the complete picture of modern luxury living: elevators, bowling lanes, gyms, lounges, chef-worthy kitchens and only the finest finishes, fixtures, and state-of-the-art smart-home and security systems available. Plans for a third house, about 25,000 square feet, has also been submitted. The property provides a combined total of 19 bedrooms and 33 baths.
