3916 Alhambra Circle, Coral Gables, FL 33134
3 bedrooms/3 bathrooms | 2,171 sf | 6,600 sf lot | built in 1971 | sold for $625,000

I am thrilled for my buyers who just closed on this beautiful home in Coral Gables!  This transaction was a unique one, where all parties had open communication throughout the process.  Although most agents loathe contact between the seller and buyer while the sale is pending (as it can often create more problems), sometimes it’s the only way to get the deal done! In this case, the parties realized they were business acquaintances which made the seller more comfortable and allowed them to “speak their own language” and reach a deal.  Ultimately, everyone walked away happy!

This property was built in 1971 and parts of it were still frozen in time (check out that retro kitchen and wallpaper!).  But aside from cosmetics, this home had great bones and included most of the items on my buyers’ checklist: 2,000+ square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms (including a true master suite and bath), ample closet space, loads of natural light, a 1 car garage, lovely curb appeal and a 6,600 sf lot.  Best of all, the home is located on Alhambra Circle, a beautiful tree-lined street in coveted Coral Gables – and it closed for less than $300/sf !

Congratulations all around!
