Luxury Waterfront Estate - 9405 Old Cutler Ln, Coral Gables, FL
Journey's End - Coral Gables, FL
How often does every facet of an estate and its surroundings offer a resort-style experience in a world-class location? No other waterfront community in Miami boasts the exclusivity of just 18 estate homes surrounded by mature landscaping and native vegetation, on private streets secured by a guard-gated entrance. You may not have heard of Journey's End, because only a privileged few can call this oasis home, but this is the ideal setting for the family who has exacting standards of excellence with no need to compromise. The drive to the estate over a small bridge flanked by one of the largest banyan trees you've ever seen is inspiring and leads one to dream of what is behind the handsome entry. As the front doors open, a foyer with a grand chandelier and 28-foot ceilings opens to a formal living room with 30-foot tall ceilings and the first glimpse of the impeccable backyard.
Once outside, the perfectly manicured gardens permeate the scenery, and are complemented by a babbling brook, a resort-style pool with waterfall bridge, a sophisticated cabana with gourmet summer kitchen, bathroom and over-sized spa, and private lawn, all of which are bordered by a tropical canal that leads to Biscayne Bay. Truly, the feeling that you are strolling the grounds of your own five-star resort is inescapable. While the canal does not support a large vessel, the estate comes with a deeded boat slip allowing up to a 60-foot yacht.
While the residence is large, the floor plan is well-designed and allows the beautiful surroundings of nature to infuse the indoor spaces with light and beautiful views. A kitchen that opens to an informal dining room and family room allows a large family to be together in comfort. For elegant dinner parties, the residence offers a second, formal dining room. A sun room off of the living room offers the broadest views of the backyard. Two downstairs wet bars, including one in a library lounge offers plenty of variety for entertaining. Across the hall from the library lounge is a home cinema. Take the elevator or the stairs to the second floor where a split plan finds the master suite set away from the other bedrooms. A massive master suite offers a comfy sitting area, huge dual custom closets and a great bathroom with his and her wings. The master suite also flows through from the front to the rear of the property with large private terraces on each side from which to appreciate all angles of the beautiful setting. The balance of the upstairs bedrooms are all large and share access to an upstairs den/study/media room. Each bedroom has access to a well-apportioned balcony. A second staircase leads from the guest bedrooms directly to the laundry facilities and billiards room downstairs. A separate third-story loft is an ideal space for air-conditioned storage or even an office.

University of Miami Campus Tour | Coral Gables, FL // Travel Vlogs
HOPE YOU ENJOY! I recently had the opportunity to travel to Miami for summer vacation, and since I've been looking at the University of Miami, I decided to participate in a campus tour and information session. If you have a lot of different interests, I highly suggest checking it out! Instead of doing basics as a freshman, they've implemented a cognate system, where you can choose whatever classes you're interested in from three subjects: STEM, People & Society, and Arts & Humanities (your major automatically fulfills one). Since I'm majoring in Pre-Med, but also love Psychology and Film, this system is perfect for me! I had a great time and the campus is beautiful! Go hurricanes!

Chris Dellorco - Presented By Artrageous Gallery in Coral Gables
Born in Los Angeles, Chris' initial interest in the interplay between art and architectural history began with a degree in Developmental Economics from U.C. Berkeley. Desiring a more creative field, he switched his focus from academics to art and went on to establish himself as one of the county's foremost illustrators. Although completely self-taught, his art career has spanned all aspects of illustration while specializing in the film industry, children's products and children's books. A true renaissance man, along with a degree in Economics and a successful art career, he has also successfully written and directed an award winning short film, receiving international recognition.
For the past 15 years, Chris has been widely considered one of Disney's top illustrators for print advertising, specializing in Home Video packaging. His covers range from the award winning The Lion King, to the recent Lilo and Stich and everything in between. If you own one of Disney's animated titles on VHS or DVD, Chris probably did the cover.
In the entertainment field, he has illustrated numerous movie posters which include Conan the Barbarian, Revenge of the Nerds, Coming to America, The Marrying Man, The Firm, and others. He received the Silver Medal award at The Hollywood Reporter Key Art Awards for the poster Eating Raoul, First Place for his work on Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Second Place for Snow White, and Finalist for Aladdin-Prince of Thieves. He also was a finalist for the prestigious Belding award. He has also shown his artwork for many years in the Society of Illustrators Annual West Coast Exhibit.
Dellorco's oil paintings exhibit near photo realism, yet still capture a certain level of artistic beauty and sensuality. Generally, they depict the female figure, shrouded in richly colored fabrics, while dramatically set against Old World European architecture. Often the architecture represents a historically significant European landmark, such as Versailles or the Pantheon. Each painting reveals a subtle, yet provocative story contrasting human beauty and frailty with the solidity and strength of mankind's greatest monuments.
Chris' art has been featured at the celebrity filled Artists for Medicine annual auction at the Lladro Gallery in Beverly Hills, showing alongside such renowned artists as Basquiat, Rauschenberg, Ed Ruscha and Yoko Ono. He won a wide range of awards as both an advertising artist and fine artist, including a Lifetime Achievement Award from Artist's For A Better World.
