A Miami Beach penthouse owned and designed by art curator Ximena Caminos, the former partner of Argentine hotelier and real estate developer Alan Faena, has just hit the market for $7.7 million.
Caminos, founder of Faena Art, is also the founder of the ReefLine, a proposed 7-mile-long underwater public sculpture park, snorkel trail and “purpose-built” reef just 600 feet off Miami Beach’s shoreline.
The four-bedroom, 4½-bathroom home comes with a 3,500-square-foot rooftop “sky bar.” It’s located at the Caribbean, 3739 Collins Ave., which was designed by architect L. Murray Dixon and built in 1941.

There’s also a hidden chef’s kitchen designed with pink onyx “to feel more like a bar,” according to the listing from Compass broker Nancy Batchelor.
Art and furnishings are also available for purchase separately, she added.
Outside, the rooftop terrace features a kitchen with a stone bar, a pergola and multiple lounging areas overlooking the beach and the ocean.
Building amenities include a beach and pool service, a concierge, a wine cellar and a gym.
