The waterfront property in Islamorada, Florida spans four acres.
Jon Landau, the producer of Titanic and Avatar, has put his property in Islamorada, Florida on the market for $13.9 million. The waterfront property is currently the most expensive listing in the village of six islands just 90 minutes south of Miami.
The stunning property encompasses almost four oceanfront acres. At the entrance, an exceptional custom gate offers a preview of what’s to come. A winding driveway surrounded by lush foliage and highlighted at night with beautiful landscape lighting ushers guests to the Balinese-influenced architecturally designed home, identified by its pitched, flared roofs and exposed trusses together with round columns covered in imported green stone.
These elements are intended to balance the natural beauty surrounding the home inside and out. Upon entering the home, the full majesty of the sweeping ocean views captivates guests.
The large center island in the kitchen invites guests to feel at home.
The main home is accented by stunning woodwork, including custom carved doors in every room with intricate detailing. Entertaining is a dream in the gourmet kitchen, complete with an eat-at-bar counter. Or one can dine in the adjacent dining area with an ocean view or out on the waterfront porches.
Say good-bye to towers of canned goods with the walk-in pantry showcasing intricately wood-carved shelving, a butler’s pantry and a laundry room. A temperature-controlled 1,000-plus bottle wine cellar with a computerized barcode scanning system guarantees you’ll never run out of your favorites. The main living room opens to the balcony overlooking the ocean, pool, hot tub with fire pit, beach area and exquisite gardens.

Imagine exploring an underwater world by snorkeling from your own property.
