Market Update: Plaza on Brickell

IMG_0499 (1)

Plaza on Brickell
950 Brickell Bay Drive and 951 Brickell Avenue

The Plaza on Brickell is one of those buildings that I get asked about frequently.  I have friends and family that live or previously lived in the building, and I’ve rented a number of units there, as well as sold a gorgeous unit there this past year.  The feedback I get from my friends and clients who have lived there is always positive, which helps to explain why it remains one of the most popular buildings in Brickell.

The Plaza consists of two towers, one located directly on Brickell Avenue and the other on Brickell Bay Drive.  Between the two buildings, there are about 1,000 units with floor plans ranging from studios to 1, 2 and 3 bedroom units.  The Plaza was developed by The Related Group and was completed in 2008.  The buildings connect on the pool level, which consists of two beautiful, heated infinity pools and a hot tub.  Other amenities include:

  • 24-hour Security and Concierge
  • 24-hour Valet Parking
  • State-of-the-art Fitness Center in each tower
  • Two Infinity-edge, Heated Pools
  • Hot Tub
  • Business Center in each tower
  • Club Rooms with Billiards Table, Kitchen and Media Center in each tower
  • Lounge Rooms, Wine Storage, and a Cigar Lounge with Humidor
  • Sauna and Steam Rooms
  • On-site restaurants and salons at street level

The Plaza is pet-friendly for both renters and owners, and the building provides basic cable, water/sewer and garbage removal.  Additionally, the residences feature energy-efficient and impact-resistant sliding glass doors and windows, private balconies, stackable washer and dryer, and spacious walk-in closets.  And of course, the best feature of The Plaza is its central location – Mary Brickell Village is just a quick 2 blocks away!

2 bedrooms/2 bathrooms | 1,305 sf | Built in 1963 | Offered at $449,000
Listed by Jorge Guanche of Floridian First Realty Group LLC

For this week’s Under $500k, we have a beautifully updated condo at Brickell Townhouse, a waterfront condo building situated at the southern end of Brickell Avenue.  This two bedroom/two bathroom unit has 1,305 square feet and was listed just last week for $449,000.  The unit was totally gutted and remodeled; features include sparkling white porcelain tile floors, solid interior doors, an Italian kitchen with stainless steel appliances and Carrara Marble counter tops, as well as beautiful bathrooms.  The condo also offers spacious living areas and bedrooms, as well as covered parking for 1 car.  But let’s be honest – the real prize is the breathtaking water view .

A1861407_101_73
I’m also loooooving what the owner did with the kitchen…and I will always be a fan of white porcelain tile floors.  So Miami chic and the perfect way to complement a turquoise water view.

Market Update: 1050/1060 Brickell

1060 Brickell

1050/1060 Brickell is a great building in the heart of Brickell – it also happens to be where I’ve lived for the last 2.5 years!  It’s a newer building, completed in 2008, and consists of two towers (you guessed it – 1050 and 1060), for a total of 570 units.  Floor plans consist of studios, one, two and three-bedroom units, as well as lofts.

The building has a beautiful pool and gym, complete with a yoga/aerobics room, steam rooms, showers and locker rooms.  Unique amenities include a virtual golf room featuring an indoor golf simulator, Wine/Cigar lounge outfitted with temperature-controlled wine and storage cabinets and personal humidors for cigars, and a game room with a billiards table.  The building has 24 hour doorman security, as well as ground-floor and mezzanine level retail and restaurants, and is pet-friendly to both renters and owners.  Best of all is the location – with Mary Brickell Village in your backyard, you can leave your car in the garage all weekend – no driving necessary!

A Brickell Gem: Jade at Brickell Bay #602

A1834781_401_19

2 beds/2 baths | 1,460 sf |$739,000 | Listed by Charles Morganstern of One Sotheby’s Int’l Realty

It’s not easy to find a large Brickell condo in a luxury, waterfront building for under one million dollars, let alone such a unit in a building like the Jade Residences at Brickell Bay.  But unit 602 fits the bill: listed for $739,000, this large NW corner 2 bedroom/2 bathroom unit with nearly 1,500 square feet has both city and water views, a large wrap-around terrace, floor-to-ceiling windows and high ceilings.  The unit has a sparkling kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and Italian cabinetry, as well as gorgeous hardwood floors throughout and marble floors in the bathrooms.

But the icing on the cake is that this unit is located at the Jade, a true Brickell gem.  Built in 2004, it’s a 48-story luxury high-rise building on Biscayne Bay with 338 residences.  Situated at 1331 Brickell Bay Drive, it’s just a block off of Brickell Ave. and walking distance to Mary Brickell Village.  The building is pet-friendly and has some of the most beautiful amenities of any building in Brickell.

Currently, there are 21 units for sale at the Jade, ranging from $470,000 for a one-bedroom with 895 square feet to $2,875,000 for a 4-bedroom, 3,400+ square foot penthouse.

Check out more photos of unit 602 below and contact me to set up a private showing.
