Impact resistant/hurricane windows were installed in 2006. The roof was redone after Hurricane Andrew, but was done with antique barrel clay tile to retain the George Fink/George Merrick design and feel. Kitchen was completely redone in 2002 with custom wood cabinets, cherry countertops and antique Minton wall tile backsplash salvaged from an old house in England; we also incorporated a built-in china cupboard into the design. Viking 48" range with double ovens and hood, Miele d/w, Subzero built-in refrig. In-law apartment connected with a covered breezeway with screens in windows and separate door to outside. Separate AC units for upstairs and downstairs, and in-law apartment. There is a two-car garage with separate laundry room that has a huge old-fashioned double concrete sink. Copper gutters waiting to be installed. Neighborhood Description Palm, Hibiscus and Star Island are man-made islands on the major causeway leading from the mainland to South Beach. Al Capone's home is still standing on Palm Island and Hibiscus had its own nighclub/speakeasy during prohibition. It is a gated community with a lovely park that includes lighted tennis courts and close to a park near Joe's Stone Crabs (yes, THE Joe's) that allows dogs off leash. Its a very safe area, and quiet, but surprisingly close to the Miami Airport. It has the distinct advantage of allowing you to see the cruise ships coming and going from the nearby port, and you can see the fireworks displays during holidays from the upstairs bedroom.
