Digital marketing guru Jeffrey Herzog didn’t even have time to get properly acquainted with the grass-sculpted lion in the verdant yard of this modern Miami mansion before deciding to flip it back on the market. The ask is just shy of $20 million, which is a whopping $5.7 million more than the Avenue Z chairman and CEO and his wife Jill paid for the swanky place in the affluent Coconut Grove neighborhood just five months ago. Chad Carroll of The Carroll Group at Compass holds the listing.
Tucked away in a secluded cul-de-sac behind a double-gated circular driveway that leads to an attached two-car garage, the sleek contemporary home was designed by local architect Gabriel Lopez. Completed earlier this year, the creamy stucco and wood-accented structure rests amid an oak tree-laced parcel of land spanning about half an acre and offers seven bedrooms and nine baths spread across a little more than 8,600 square feet of Artefacto-furnished living space on two levels.

Among the highlights is an open-concept great room anchored on one end by a striking spiral staircase. Within that voluminous glass-lined space are two living areas, including one spilling out to a covered entertainment lounge equipped with a built-in barbecue. A formal dining area connects to the gourmet kitchen, which is outfitted with an island/table combo, top-notch appliances, and a wine fridge.
A cantilevered primary suite on the upper level comes with access to an expansive turf-clad balcony, a bespoke dressing room, and a luxe bath spotlighted by a freestanding soaking tub. A nearby gym and an office both lead out to yet another balcony adorned with a living wall, while the resort-like backyard hosts a pool and spa flanked by a sunken fire pit and a pool house sporting a custom sauna and bath.

Topping it all off is a reflecting pool with an abstract sculpture, as well as the aforementioned topiary-inspired lion resting alongside a cascading waterfall feature.
In addition to their Coconut Grove home, the Herzogs also own a lakefront residence in the South Florida town of Delray Beach that they picked up in 2018 for around $10.6 million and had on the market for a few months last year at $23 million.
