THE MAIN RESIDENCE, LOCATED IN AREA
“HE SHADOWS", Mr. Carl G. Fisher's bay front estate at Miami Beach, con-
sists of Lots 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41 and 42, all in Block 14, La Gorce Golf Sub-
division. This property is the largest and most outstanding bay front estate here,
having 903 feet of water frontage, 767 feet of street frontage, and an average depth
of approximately 271 feet. Its location is on one of the few bay front "points", where a water-
way enters the bay.
The buildings comprising this estate are so situated that the property can be divided
into three areas and sold in three separate parts. We will call these areas "A", "B" and "C".
They are described more fully as follows:
Area
<<A„
This property comprises the large open landscaped space north of the present paved drive-
way adjacent to the porte cochere of the main house. Area "A" has a frontage on Biscayne
Bay of approximately 140 feet, a frontage on Bay Road of approximately 100 feet, and an
average depth of approximately 280 feet.
If area "A" is sold separately, a wall will be built along the dividing line between areas
"A" and "B". Area "A" will then be walled in on the north, east and south sides and will
have the bay front bulkhead on its western side.
This is truly an extraordinarily well -located property, overlooking a wide expanse of Bis-
cayne Bay, with a marvelous view of the Miami skyline. It is ideal in size for the building of a
bay front residence.
The price on this property is $25.000; terms one-third cash, balance in equal payments
in one and two years, with interest at 7% payable semi-annually. There is a discount of 5%
for all cash.

This area of Mr. Carl G. Fisher's bay front estate comprises the central section of the
property, situated just south of area "A". There are approximately 330 feet of bay frontage,
235 feet of street frontage, and an average depth of about 285 feet.
In area "B" is located the main residence, one of the largest and one of the most magnifi-
cent on Miami Beach.
The first floor contains a 25'x63' living room with Aeolian concert pipe organ, large fire-
place and beautifully ornamented plastered ceiling, also double stairway leading to second

On the second floor is a master's bedroom 25'x35' with dressing room, glass -enclosed

Biscayne Bay, Indian Creek, and the Atlantic Ocean, unfolds for miles in all directions.
'The third floor contains six servants' bedrooms, three baths and a glass -inclosed porch.
This residence is one of the most substantially built on Miami Beach, being of hollow tile
construction with reinforced concrete foundation supported by seventy-five piles.
Also in area "B" is a very beautiful concrete dock, having a covered shelter at each end,
one of which contains two toilets and two lavatories.
The beautifully landscaped grounds contain a large rose garden and a number of Royal
Palm and coconut trees in addition to other tropical shrubbery.
A three -car garage containing two servants' rooms, one bath and one shower will be built
in the northeast corner of the grounds. A wall will be constructed along the south line of area
"B" running from the bay to the street, following a straight line through the center of the
present rose garden. This property will then be inclosed by walls on three sides; the fourth
side being along the bay front.

homes on Miami Beach. We have an elevation sketch of such a residence showing how nicely

be built between areas "C" and "B" upon the purchase of either property, thereby making area
"C" entirely walled in except for the property fronting on the water.
