South Florida is currently experiencing a shift in demand for luxury real estate, where the most fortunate of buyers are drifting away from the coastal cities and opting for inland areas that can offer high caliber luxury single-family homes without sacrificing space or land. Developers Alex Yokana, Jairo Vela, Michael Sochaczevski, and Amos Sochaczevski understood the preferences of this niche of buyers very well, and set their eyes on a 44-acre swath of pristine land located at 4701 Akai Drive, just south of Griffin Road in the Tara subdivision of Southwest Ranches in Broward County. Construction is soon to begin on the lavish homes of AKAI Estates, a fully gated ultra-luxurious community comprised of only 16 residences featuring unique modern architectural designs by Portuguese architect Vasco Vieira with Jiro Yates as the architect of record, open floor plans of 7,000-12,000+ square feet, stunning finishes and attention to detail, and access to a variety of uncommonly upscale neighborhood amenities.
Across 44 tropical acres, the AKAI Estates experience becomes a reality. Lush landscaping and stately palms welcome residents and guests with a gated entry staffed with 24-hour security. Once inside, lakes and fountains shimmer in the sunlight, and winding roads lead towards the residences and a host of community amenities that include a helicopter pad and chipping and putting green. There are also a number of quiet, low-traffic roads for riding bikes, jogging, or taking a pleasant walk around your neighborhood.
The sprawling residences of AKAI Estates are offered in 5 distinct formats, and regardless of the choice, each residence is delivered with two acres of private property. Each estate includes an aquatic entertainment area and is highly customizable with the ability to add on features including putting greens, tennis/pickle-ball courts, or even a basketball court of choice. The charming suburban retreat of Southwest Ranches is known for rolling plantations, tall palms, swaying sawgrass, butterflies, birds, and a no-rush pace. A perfect balance of a modern lifestyle with the serene peace of country living.
Envisioning AKAI Estates took both talent and a shared motivation for raising the bar on residential living. The development team for AKAI Estates brings together some of the most experienced and forward-thinking minds in the world of finance, real estate development, construction, lifestyle trends, and architecture – all driven to make this property the new gold standard in luxury residential living. Residences are priced from $8 million and range up to $14 million. Bento Queiroz Group are exclusively handling sales and marketing.
