{"key":"villa-summercrest-vr","blocks":[{"section":"intro","body":"Villa Summercrest was finished recently, and the benefit of that is structural rather than decorative: nothing in the house is near the end of its life. Six bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms and 4,207 square feet of interior, arranged so the kitchen, dining and living run together on one plane and the sleeping rooms sit away from it. A full chef kitchen does the cooking for twelve. Outside there is a heated pool for the months when Miami water turns cold, and above that a roof deck that opens the whole sky up."},{"section":"setting","heading":"Miami Shores","body":"Miami Shores is a residential village, tree-lined and low-rise, with a village center of cafes and small shops five minutes away by car. It is not the Beach and it is not Brickell, and that is the reason to choose it: a quiet street to come home to with the rest of Miami inside a half-hour radius. The Design District and Aventura Mall are both about fifteen minutes by car, Wynwood eighteen, Miami Beach twenty-two, and Miami International twenty-five. Art week visitors use it for the Wynwood and Design District access without the noise.","bullets":["Miami Shores village center, five minutes by car","Design District, fifteen minutes by car","Aventura Mall, fifteen minutes","Wynwood Arts District, eighteen minutes","Miami Beach, twenty-two minutes","Miami International (MIA), twenty-five minutes"]},{"section":"interiors","heading":"Inside the new build","body":"Six bedrooms across two levels, five with king beds and one with a queen, which suits a group of couples better than a group of friends splitting rooms. Smart televisions sit in the bedrooms, ceilings are high through the main rooms, and the finishes are current rather than lived-in. The chef kitchen is the working center of the house, open to the dining area and the living room so cooking is not a separate activity from the rest of the evening. A washer and dryer on site matters on a week-long stay with a family.","bullets":["Six bedrooms over two levels, five kings and one queen","4,207 square feet of interior","Four full bathrooms plus a half bath","Full chef kitchen open to dining and living","High ceilings and modern finishes throughout","Smart televisions in the bedrooms","Washer and dryer on site"]},{"section":"outdoors","heading":"Pool and rooftop deck","body":"The pool is heated, which extends the swimming season straight through the winter months rather than ending it in November. Around it there is lounging space and outdoor furniture rather than a tight deck, and the landscaping across the plot is mature. The roof deck sits above all of it with panoramic views, and in practice it becomes the evening room: the pool takes the afternoon, the roof takes sunset onwards. Two separate outdoor levels on a residential house of this size is the part that photographs never quite explain.","bullets":["Heated pool, usable year round","Rooftop deck with panoramic views","Outdoor lounging zones with furniture","Mature landscaping across the plot","Two outdoor levels, the pool deck and the roof"]},{"section":"activities","heading":"A week from here","body":"The house works as a base rather than a destination. Mornings in the village, afternoons in the pool, then a short drive out for whatever the trip is about: galleries in Wynwood, showrooms in the Design District, shopping at Aventura, or the sand at Miami Beach twenty-two minutes away. Because the kitchen is set up properly and there is a washer and dryer, groups here tend to cook two or three nights instead of booking a table every evening. Art week visitors keep the roof deck for the end of the night.","bullets":["Cooking nights in the chef kitchen","Gallery and showroom runs to Wynwood and the Design District","Beach days at Miami Beach","Shopping at Aventura Mall","Sunset on the roof deck"]},{"section":"logistics","heading":"Before you book","body":"Three nights is the minimum, so this is not a stopover house. Pets are not permitted and the owner does not flex on it. Twelve guests is a hard cap rather than a guideline, and events or parties beyond the booked count need written approval in advance, which on a residential street is not a formality. Check-in is from three in the afternoon and check-out at eleven, both with some flexibility. The lead guest must be twenty-five or over and photo identification is required. Our concierge team is reachable on WhatsApp and phone around the clock.","bullets":["Three-night minimum stay","No pets, owner policy","Twelve guests maximum, hard cap","No events or parties without advance written approval","Lead guest twenty-five or over, identification required","Check-in from 15:00, check-out 11:00"]},{"section":"ideal-for","heading":"Best For","body":null,"bullets":["Groups of couples, five of six rooms have king beds","Multi-generational families wanting a real house","Art week visitors who need Wynwood and Design District access","Groups who will cook rather than eat out every night","Travelers who want a quiet street with the city in reach"]}]}
