Casa Terra Lumi is a small rustic home, with a large magical garden filled with bamboo trees, Areca palms and a majestic cactus that blooms 300 flowers each year. The project originated when the founders had the idea to re-create their dream destination in their own Florida home town. The name came about when they first experienced the site and saw the extraordinary greenery, “Tierra Iluminada” were their first words that came to mind.
The house was restored thoughtfully with great attention to detail in a rustic-minimalist style, it emits naturalness and visual peace. Without losing the Ft Lauderdale urban essence, Casa Terra Lumi is a magical transportation to the sum of unique spaces the owners have traveled to around the world, each space full of light, beautiful tree shadows and calming bird chirping sounds, which inspire peace and tranquility.
From its enjoyable outdoor areas, to having supper under the trees; an open rustic kitchen with arched walls and exposed wood beams; its 2 spacious rooms with private bathroom, and Zen Den area with beautiful views of the garden. Each space has its own character.
Its minimalist architecture, the plaster of the walls, the built-in furniture , wood and linen textures, the exposed wood beams (original to the 1950’s house) and the Mediterranean terra-cotta ceramic tiles define the character of this very special abode. A large turfed garden, with lush trees, sun loungers and a small wood jacuzzi surround the dreamy hideaway. Casa Terra Lumi is an ideal place to enjoy total privacy, but at the same time, discover the beautiful beaches & cultural scene of Fort Lauderdale and delicious restaurants nearby. It is centrally located 6 minutes from the airport and 7 minutes from the beach, Miami is just a 30-40 minute drive from the home.
This Garden will be the perfect setting for your next photoshoot or small gathering.
