Did you ever think about what kind of animal you’d want to be if you weren’t human? We did. What the four of us came up with is a bald eagle, a giraffe and two dogs. Then we started talking about where we’d want to live. We figure the bald eagle can fly anywhere she wants, the giraffe is going to live on a wildlife reserve in Kenya, and both dogs plan to stay local — maybe a nice backyard in Pinecrest. We had everything neatly worked out until we came across this photo of a horse running on his fabulous 11- acre estate in Lindbergh’s Landing in South Miami-Dade County. Suddenly, we all wanted to be horses.
See … doesn’t he look happy?
And why wouldn’t he be the picture of contentment? He’s got an amazing Mediterranean-style home with two fireplaces, a library, entertainment room, wet bar and an incredible designer kitchen. Sounds great, yes? Well, that’s just what’s in his Main House. Besides all that, there’s the detached car collector showroom, the game house with home theater, the pool, the pool house, plus the tennis and basketball courts. Let’s see … what are we forgetting? Oh, silly us! How about the 18-hole miniature golf course and the FAA approved air strip.
Thing is, we know some of this wonderfulness is probably lost on the horse. If you asked him what he appreciates most about his private paradise, he’d proudly show you his six barn stable and his training ring. Go figure!
Can you please take one second and check out the pool?
This is where we want to be. All four of us. And not as birds or giraffes or dogs, either. Just incredibly fortunate people living the exceedingly good life. Yes, absolutely definitely without a doubt – we unanimously award this magnificent retreat from the ordinary world FOUR DOORKNOBS!
