Market Update: 1050/1060 Brickell

2 Comments

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!

Although it wasn’t my plan to post more than one property each week for Under $500k, I couldn’t resist sharing this property this week (it’s been on the market for 12 days and I have a feeling it won’t be available much longer!).  Plus, since I didn’t get a chance to post anything the last 2 weeks, I figure we’re making up for lost time.  Aaaand, since it’s located in Coral Gables, we’ve got a little Gables theme going this week.

So without further ado, I present to you 315 Viscaya Avenue.  Before I tell you about it, let’s check out some more photos, shall we?  I think they speak for themselves:

Wouldn’t you agree that this home just exudes charm?!  Listed for $498,000, it has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1,450 square feet and a 5,000 square foot lot.  From the ivy-covered arched entrance to the Spanish tile and gleaming hardwood floors, this Old Spanish cottage is the perfect starter home for a young couple or a new home for empty-nesters looking to downsize.

According to the listing, the home, which was built in 1926, features a glassed-in front porch which the current owner uses as a foyer and library, a fireplace in the living room, a formal dining room and an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances.  The backyard is fenced, and lush foliage and palm trees provide great privacy.  The home also has a carport and plenty of street parking, and all furniture is also for sale.

I just love all the unique details of this bright home, from the large windows flanking the front door, to the brick paved front walkway, to the large wrought-iron gate…plus, I’m a total sucker for ivy.  Check out all of the photos below and let me know – what do you think of this property?

Under $500k: Coral Gables

A1819465_101_121245 Ortega Ave., Coral Gables, FL 33134 | $499,000 | 3 bedrooms/2 bathrooms | 1,712 sf | 5,250 sf lot
Listed by Ana Clarke and Michael Falsetto of The Grand & Assoc. Realty Inc.

For this week’s installment of Under $500k, I bring you 1245 Ortega Avenue, a charming home in the highly sought-after North Coral Gables neighborhood.  This home was originally listed for $585,000 in July 2013, but was dropped to $499,000 just last week.

The home, which was built in 1960, is located on a quiet, tree-lined street on a corner lot, which is a huge plus for a young family or a couple looking to start a family.  According to the listing, the property features  hard wood floors throughout, great mill work, recessed lighting, an oversized garage, large closets, an en-suite master bath with double shower heads, hurricane shutters, a new roof, and a new air conditioner.

The photos show a sparkling kitchen with a modern, stainless steel range hood and built-in wine refrigerator.  Swap out the white refrigerator for a stainless steel sub-zero and this kitchen would really shine!  Although the second bathroom looks a bit outdated, a little paint in a modern color and a chic shower curtain would spruce it up until you’re ready to remodel it.

Finally, the property features great curb appeal with beautiful palm trees lining the entrance to the home, as well as a lush green lot and hedges for privacy.  Welcome home!

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.
