The Buzz on Condos in Coconut Grove! There’s Life Beyond Park Grove…

I have clients coming to Miami this month who want to buy a condo in Coconut Grove but can’t afford nor wait for Park Grove to be completed.  I adore Park Grove but we have to remember there is life beyond that site! Architectural styles change and building popularities ebb and flow, but panoramas of sunrise, sunset, Sailboat Bay, and downtown Miami remain constant. Where does one go when they want to be a condo-wheeling Grovite before 2016-17? 

Grovenor House

There are five properties for sale between $1.6 mil and $8.750 ranging from 1,750 sf to about 6,900 sf.  Ugo Colombo completed this majestic 32-story tower in 2006 and it still reigns in my eyes as the king of South Bayshore Drive.

Ritz Carlton Tower Residences & Executive Residences

The ‘Ritz’ is the benchmark for luxury and elegance and between the two Ritz Towers there are four units for sale between $970,000 and $2.350 mil, ranging in size from 1,560 sf to 4000 sf.

Yacht Harbour

It was the bomb when it debuted in 1975 and this Ken Treister classic is still one of my favorites.  They just finished the 40 year re-certification at Yacht Harbour and with it came new balconies and a completely fresh face at poolside.  There are 4 great units available right now and 2 of them, in the coveted “A” line, have direct views of Sailboat Bay for $799,000 and $675,000.

Grove Isle

The views from Grove Isle are endless, and so is the resort lifestyle: hotel, spa, tennis courts, marina, and restaurant – it’s all grand on this private island. Between the 3 buildings there are 10 two and three bedroom units for sale right now between $675,000 and $1.45 mil.

Mutiny Hotel & Condo and Mutiny Park Sonesta Condominium

The Mutiny Hotel located at 2951 S. Bayshore Drive, and Mutiny Park Sonesta Condominium located at 2889 McFarlane Road have a diverse range of inventory beginning at $219,000 and reaching as high as $1.5mil. Both properties appeal to the Coconut Grove investor and periodic visitor who values the hotel/condo platform allowing short and long term visitors.

There are other fabulous buildings in the Grove to consider but there isn’t much for sale in them at the moment. Always on my radar are the Residences at Vizcaya, Grove Hill Tower, Beacon Harbour, Grove Towers, and Mayfair Lofts. Without a doubt, the selection of condominiums in Coconut Grove is as diverse and eclectic as the people who live there.
