Just Sold: Stunning Center Grove Townhouse Remodel

Leave a comment


3153 Peachy St, Miami, FL 33133
2 beds/2.5 baths | 1,700 sq ft | built in 1991 | sold for $679,000

Every now and then a very special home hits the market and people go berserk over it – 3153 Peachy St. happened to be one of those properties!  Within three days of this property coming to market, the seller had FIVE offers, at least one of which was above asking price (according to the listing agent)! I am thrilled to say that I represented the lucky buyers who snagged the property and just closed on this gorgeous home!

This townhouse is located in Center Grove and is tucked away in a very quiet, nearly hidden gated community of 18 townhouses called Arboretum in the Grove. The community is incredibly charming and has a slightly European feel to it.  This particular townhouse originally had 3 bedrooms but a prior owner converted it to 2 bedrooms to create a large master suite and bath (there is a screened-in patio on the ground level that could potentially be enclosed to create an additional bedroom, office or playroom should the new owners so desire).

The home has 1,700 square feet of living space and was completely remodeled to create a spacious open floor plan on the first floor.  The extensive renovations include a stunning, sleek and modern kitchen complete with Mia Cucina cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances;  modern bathrooms with top-of-the-line fixtures and vanities; hurricane impact glass windows and doors; a modern, glass-framed staircase; and hardwood floors throughout. Additionally, the roof and air conditioner were recently replaced, so the home is move-in ready!

Other special features about this property include an air conditioned one-car garage with tons of extra storage, an adorable outdoor patio with gorgeous landscaping and a tranquil water feature, and a large terrace off of the master on the second level.

Okay, enough talking – let’s get to the good stuff – check out all the drool-worthy photos below! And a BIG congrats to the buyers and sellers on closing this fantastic transaction!

3127-3129 Matilda Street | Miami, FL 33133

Last December I wrote about a pair of new construction townhouses that were under contract on Matilda Street in Center Grove.  The asking price for each townhouse was $795,900, and both units have now sold for $780,000 ($355/sf) a piece.

The townhouses have 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and 2,200 square feet of living space.  Each unit has a carport, a backyard patio with a pool, and a rooftop terrace.   Located on Matilda St. between Shipping and Day Ave., the new owners are just a quick walk to Cocowalk and Downtown Coconut Grove.

New construction properties like these in Center Grove are few and far between, and many of them sell before the developer even breaks ground.  Contact me today to find out about other new construction opportunities in the Grove at 305.799.2124 or lrubens@bhsusa.com.

a10072625_201_22 3119 Mary Street #4, Miami, FL 33133
3 bedrooms/2.5 bathrooms | 1,470 sf | built in 1993 | sold for $479,550

Congrats to my buyer on closing on this fabulous townhouse in Center Coconut Grove! This bright, 3 bedroom corner unit sold for under $500,000 which is quite rare to find in the neighborhood these days. The property is located on Mary Street in the quiet gated community of Grove Cove, which consists of 9 townhouses.

In addition to 3 bedrooms, the home has 2 full baths upstairs and a half bath on the main floor, as well as an updated kitchen, a one car garage and a lovely, landscaped backyard patio.  Although the property has less than 2,000 square feet of living space, it has vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan, which makes it feel larger than it is.  The home has tile floors downstairs and carpet in the bedrooms, and there are beautiful brick pavers throughout the community and around the front and back of the property.

Check out all of the photos below, and feel free to contact me at lindsayrubens@avatarflorida.com or 305.799.2124 for more information.

Just Sold: New Construction Townhouse Resale in Center Grove

3167 Gifford Lane, Miami, FL 33133
3 beds/4 full baths | 2,491 sf | built in December 2015 | sold for $963,000

Congratulations to my buyer who just closed on this gorgeous property in Center Coconut Grove! While technically this was a resale, the property is not even one year old and the seller had only lived in the home for a handful of months.  It is a larger townhouse with 3 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms and almost 2,500 square feet of living space.  This was an off-market sale which closed for $963,000 ($387/sf).

Similar to other new construction homes in the neighborhood, this townhouse is ultra-modern and comes with all of the incredible bells and whistles of buying new construction today (think impact glass throughout, sleek kitchen with white quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, recessed LED lighting, indoor/outdoor sound system, advanced security system with outdoor cameras, and porcelain tile “wood look” floors throughout).

This particular property is unique in that it has two A/C zones (one upstairs and one downstairs) as well as a gas range, gas water heater and gas dryer. Other notable features include 20-foot ceilings in the living room and dining room, a large rooftop patio with a wet bar, a spacious backyard with heated pool, 1 car garage with porcelain floors, a spacious built-out closet in the master suite and an enormous rainhead glass shower and soaking tub in the master bath.

And of course, one of the best parts about this property is its fabulous location in the heart of Center Grove.  This home is located on Gifford Lane, a quiet, tree-lined street just minutes from Cocowalk and Downtown Coconut Grove.  It’s not easy to find a new construction property like this in Coconut Grove for under $1 million these days. Even though this property was never listed on the MLS, I live and work in the Grove and found out about this opportunity early on.  I was able to get my client in the door and negotiate a deal for him very quickly, and now he’s the lucky new owner!

If you are interested in buying or selling a home like this in Coconut Grove or the surrounding neighborhoods, I would love the opportunity to work with you! Call or email me at any time at 305-799-2124 or lindsayrubens@avatarflorida.com.
