Construction

The soil borings results were excellent and were not requiring pilings, though home was constructed on 52 pilings. Block on all 3 floors. 10” Hollow-core floors covered with another 2” of concrete slab on 2nd and 3rd levels, interior framing is metal. Steel I beams and poured concrete. Incredibly deep footers. The window and door width openings are oversized which required custom poured concrete headers. Header height is 8ft throughout home (including first floor) Another note on the slider openings, they have a seamless transition where the track is lower than the interior flooring. For an easier step out onto a balcony. You don’t have to step up and over. All of the WinDoor Sliding glass doors open in both directions, the Primary slider pockets to the left. Euro-Wall Bifold on the 3rd level facing the beach. All doors and windows are Miami Dade impact rated, metal, CGI. Two sliding doors were cut down for windows (Kitchen sink and primary tub) to achieve more glass to frame ratio with a wide opening.
