MIAMI, April 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ONE Sotheby's International Realty, the fastest growing luxury real estate firm throughout South Florida, is pleased to announce the record breaking sale of 3500 Curtis Lane in Coconut Grove. The sale represents the highest paid transaction for a single family residence in the history of Coconut Grove. The property, which closed on April 1st, was on the market for less than 60 days which is uncommon for a property in this price range.

Representing both the buyer and seller is top producing agent, Jorge Uribe. Jorge Uribe listed the home with ONE Sotheby's International Realty on February 4th.  This 2 plus acre lush tropical compound closed for $13.5 million. The average close for a home of this caliber to sell is close to one year.  The Coconut Grove residence is a waterfront estate offering 300 linear feet of water frontage, a 65 foot Mosaic tiled infinity edged pool, a Boffi kitchen, 11,000 square feet in the main house consisting of 7 bed, 8 bath, and a 4,500 square foot guest house. This architectural gem has exceptional finishes and a lit tennis court, fit for royalty.  Recently, the home was featured in luxury print publications such as MIAMI Magazine and Upscale Magazine.  

"Timing was right and both of my clients were very pleased with the closing of this estate," says agent Jorge Uribe of ONE Sotheby's International Realty. "We have seen the real estate market start to take a positive turn and this sale reflects just that."
