The president and CEO of the Related Group’s development division has a new Miami Beach home.

Related’s Steve W. Patterson and his wife, Carly Patterson, paid $6.2 million for the waterfront spec estate at 2901 Flamingo Drive, Miami-Dade County records show. Patterson has worked with the Miami-based developer since 2010 and is responsible for all multifamily and mixed-use developments, according to the company’s website.

The Patterson’s new home has six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms and one half-bath. It was built last year and features a whopping 300 feet of water frontage, a gourmet kitchen, staff quarters, a pool and private dock on the Intracoastal. The 6,700-square-foot home sits on a nearly 20,000-square-foot lot.

The seller is 2900 Flamingo Drive LLC, which is managed by Jose J. Iglesias. Michael Capponi, chairman and co-founder of Capponi Group Corp., developed the home. The LLC bought the property in May 2013 for $1.82 million. The spec home replaced a predecessor home, built in 1935, with 3,853 square feet.
