by Anonymous

The latest issue of Private Residences showcases luxury homes and lifestyle properties across the Americas, from lakefront estates and mountain retreats to golf communities and oceanfront escapes. Explore the design trends, destinations, and lifestyle experiences shaping luxury real estate in 2026, with expert insights and curated properties that celebrate living beautifully and intentionally.

The newest issue of Engel & Völkers Private Residences has arrived, offering a curated look at some of the most exceptional homes and lifestyle properties across the Americas. From legacy lakefront estates and architectural mountain retreats to golf course communities and oceanfront sanctuaries, this edition captures what luxury living looks like today: thoughtful, experiential, and deeply connected to place.

This spring/summer issue explores more than remarkable homes. It highlights the lifestyles shaping how discerning homebuyers are choosing to live, entertain, relax, and connect.

A Collection Defined by Lifestyle

One of the defining themes throughout the magazine is the relationship between home and environment. Readers are taken from the shores of Lake Minnetonka to the mountains of Whistler, the beaches of the Bahamas, and the desert landscapes of Utah, discovering residences designed around the experiences they offer every day.

Featured properties include:

Lake Point Estate in Wayzata, Minnesota, a newly completed 28,990-square-foot lakefront residence described as a “once-in-a-generation offering” along iconic Lake Minnetonka.
Château Fleur de Lys in Mont-Tremblant, Quebec, a 17,000-square-foot estate designed for grand-scale entertaining with sweeping Laurentian mountain views, a custom infinity pool, and private wellness amenities.
A newly built 25-acre estate in Park City, Utah, combining seclusion, world-class skiing access, and a private indoor tennis facility within one of the region’s most exclusive enclaves.
Oceanfront residences throughout the Caribbean and Central America, including beachfront villas in the Bahamas, luxury estates in Panama, and waterfront retreats in Belize.

The issue also highlights remarkable architectural homes across Colorado, Florida, Montana, Illinois, and beyond, each selected for its distinctive design, setting, and lifestyle appeal.

The Rise of Golf Lifestyle Living

A major editorial feature in this edition explores the growing appeal of golf community living and what today’s luxury homebuyers are prioritizing when purchasing homes along the course.

The article examines how homebuyers are increasingly focused on more than just proximity to the fairway. Community culture, privacy, wellness amenities, walkability, social connection, and long-term value are all shaping the modern golf lifestyle experience.

Real estate advisor insights throughout the feature offer perspective on why golf communities continue to attract homebuyers seeking both recreation and connection. As one advisor notes, “Buyers aren’t just looking for a home anymore, they want proximity and a lifestyle that comes with it.”

Featured golf-oriented homes throughout the magazine include luxury residences in British Columbia, Colorado, Florida, and Washington, all positioned within sought-after golf destinations and resort communities.

Spring 2026 Design Trends with Jennifer Adams

This edition also includes an in-depth lifestyle feature with Engel & Völkers Lifestyle and Design Expert Jennifer Adams, exploring how homeowners can refresh their spaces for spring 2026.

Rather than dramatic redesigns, Adams focuses on thoughtful adjustments that make interiors feel lighter, calmer, and more connected to nature. Key themes include:

Layering soft neutrals and earth tones
Introducing tactile textures and natural materials
Simplifying surfaces for greater clarity
Creating intentional indoor-outdoor living spaces
Designing flexible wellness-focused rooms that adapt to daily life

The feature reflects a broader shift toward homes that prioritize comfort, functionality, and effortless living.
