Property Info
Originally designed in 1950 by noted architect Joseph DeBrita and comprehensively reimagined in 2025, Panorama House represents a rare convergence of architectural pedigree and modern livability.
Set on one of the largest residential parcels in Miami Shores, the half-acre estate unfolds along a distinguished oak-lined street and has been thoughtfully refined by Shoreland Group—clarifying the original design while adapting it for contemporary living.
Guided by an experiential design approach, the home reveals itself through a series of intentional moments—framed views, layered materials, and a seamless connection between interior and landscape.
A curated tropical environment surrounds the residence, anchored by a 42-foot heated lap pool and layered outdoor living spaces that extend the architecture into the landscape—creating a private, resort-like retreat defined by scale, privacy, and a fluid indoor–outdoor lifestyle.
