“Coconut Grove New Construction” Expands North of US-1

A2063856_101_12
2886 SW 32nd Ct., Miami, FL 33133
3 bedrooms/2.5 bathrooms | 2,200 sf | built in 2015 | sold for $536,000

There’s no question that new construction is in high demand in Miami.  Who can resist that sleek, ultra-modern look, with its clean lines and high-end finishes?  I’ve blogged a lot about the new construction townhouses in Coconut Grove, which continue to change the landscape of the neighborhood and set new records with their ever-increasing price points.   Now, many of those developers are heading north of US-1 just outside of Coconut Grove, where the neighborhood is “transitioning” and land is cheaper.  These properties are nearly identical to those in Center and West Coconut Grove, yet priced $200,000-$300,000 less!

The property shown above is located at 2886 SW 32nd Ct., just a few blocks north of Coconut Grove and minutes from Coral Gables.  It sold on June 29, 2015 for $536,000 or $244/sf.  The listing agent was Graciela Arango-Diaz of Florida Realty of Miami Corp.  Check out more photos of the property below:

There are a handful of similar properties currently on the market, which range in price from $559k – $699k.  Additionally, as The Real Deal recently reported, a 21 unit townhouse project dubbed “Grove Place” at 2701 Southwest 28th Ave. began selling to friends and family this month.  According to TRD, the units will have 3,700 square feet, including a rooftop patio, with an interior size of 2,350 square feet.   TRD reports that groundbreaking could take place by the end of 2015 with completion in mid-2017.

Check out some snapshots of the current inventory in the neighborhood, including a rendering of Grove Place, below:
