When Palm Beach socialite Lila Vanderbilt Webb conceived this Gulf Stream compound in 1931, in tandem with her son and renowned architect Maurice Fatio, she sourced design ideas from famed architect Addison Mizner and design materials (from tiles to stonework) from his local factory. Her vision, artfully realized by prominent Palm Beach builder C. G. Warner, had as its focal point a three-story tower residence crowned by the mirador (lookout) that inspired its name. While Lila was a gracious hostess who demanded an inviting environ for family and friends, she also required a serene setting for herself. One that nurtured her personal privacy and sense of ease with protected areas, glorious ocean views, secure accommodations. The resulting walled gated compound was completed in 1933. Reimagined in 2014 by architect Mark Marsh, contractor Tim Givens, interior designers Richard Fast and Jean Greeson, and award-winning landscape architects Nievera Williams, Miradero has been modernized, refined and expanded without ever compromising its architectural integrity or over-arching charm.
