When people think about property on the beach in South Florida, they usually think of Miami Beach and other oceanfront communities heading north.  What they don’t think of is downtown Miami.  Yet that’s exactly what Biscayne Beach has to offer.

Biscayne Beach will boast Miami’s first man-made beach club.  Florida-based Eastview Development and investment firm GTIS Partners out of New York have plans for a beach club atmosphere for their 51-story bayfront condominium tower.

Located on a three-acre site, the developers plan to take advantage of 335 linear feet directly on Biscayne Bay and add white sand, swimming platforms and other waterfront activities, bringing the beach to the city.

While not all the amenities of Biscayne Beach have yet been decided at this preconstruction phase, enough is known to provide a sense of what this property will offer.  The amenities are divided up by various levels:

Biscayne Beach is located in Edgewater, Miami’s hottest new area for residential development.  Edgewater is adjacent to the popular Design District, Wynwood Arts District, Midtown and Downtown Miami neighborhoods, which have emerged as some of Miami’s top destinations for shopping, dining, and arts and culture.  Additionally, Edgewater is just minutes from exciting South Beach and a short drive to I-95.

Construction on Biscayne Beach will start first quarter of 2014.  The condo tower is expected to be completed in 2016.  However, the condos can be reserved at preconstruction prices now with a 10% deposit.

Biscayne Beach offers layouts ranging from one- to four-bedroom floor plans, ranging from 885 square feet to 3,789 square feet.  The top six floors will be exclusive penthouse residences with private rooftop garden terraces.  

All 399 condos will feature floor-to-ceiling glass windows and oversized balconies with views of beautiful Biscayne Bay and the Miami city skyline.

Prices start at $460,000 and go up to $1,400,000, not including the penthouses.  The penthouse condos have not yet been priced.
