Where Real Estate Is Never Boring!

“Cher's Stunning La Gorce Island Mansion”
One of the celebrity world’s most dynamic home decorators and flippers, Cher has bought, designed, improved and sold magnificent luxury condos and homes from Hawaii to California, New York and Florida. Over the years her tasteful decor, with a touch of the exotic, has made decorating magazine covers in the finest architectural publications worldwide. One of her best homes was on exclusive La Gorce Island in Miami Beach, a home with the Cher signature still very much intact. A classic example of Cher’s fondness for Moorish architectural additions, the Biscayne Bay estate has recently come on the market at $22 million.
In 1993, Cher bought and then, according to "Architectural Digest," turned the home into a grand villa that reflected her evolving taste. It was the beginning of her penchant for Venetian and Moorish design, unlike the minimalist clean lines and white furniture of her previous homes. This home she filled with religious art, rich-deep-hued fabrics, carved wood, and decorative “clutter,” as she called it. When she sold the house in 1996, she took the furnishings from this and some of her other homes and started a mail order catalog named Sanctuary. Though now clean-lined, bright, white and clutter free, the Moorish arches and a fireplace with Moorish accents are shown off perfectly, adding a welcome uniqueness to the tropical environment. The listing agent is Lourdes Alatriste of Engel & Volkers, Miami, Coconut Grove.

Purchased by Perry in 2017, it was originally listed last year at $35 million. It has now been relisted at $27 million.

Designed by Robert A. M. Stern Architects in 2009, Century attracted Paula Abdul, Elizabeth Berkley, Rihanna and Candy Spelling, widow of filmmaker Aaron Spelling, who bought the top two floors. The building rises above four acres of lush private gardens with a long list of amenities including a 75-foot-long swimming pool, screening room, yoga and Pilates studios and a wine-storage facility.
