Just Listed – 2 Bedroom Corner Unit at The Plaza on Brickell with Direct Water Views – Asking $825,000
I am pleased to announce my newest listing – unit 3211 at The Plaza on Brickell – a 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath corner unit with breathtaking views of Biscayne Bay, Brickell Key, and Key Biscayne. This is an 11 line unit located on the 32nd floor of the Brickell Bay tower, arguably the best line in the entire development.

That unit was sold furnished with marble flooring throughout. Priced to sell, unit 3211 is being offered for $825,000.

SLS Brickell Hotel & Residences Construction Update [PHOTOS]
Earlier today, I showed a client a number of east-facing units at Infinity at Brickell. This gave me the perfect opportunity to check in on the progress being made to SLS Brickell Hotel & Residences. As of today, construction had reached approximately the 27th floor. I must admit, when SLS Brickell was initially announced, I thought the views from the east-facing units at Infinity at Brickell would be completely destroyed. To my surprise, although the two buildings butt up against one another, there’s actually a lot of room separating the actual residences. Basically, the two developments are separated by their respective pool decks. Although views directly to the east will be blocked from Infinity at Brickell, the space between the two buildings allows for residents to enjoy the views to the north and south. Besides, let’s not kid ourselves, the view of the SLS Brickell pool deck is going to be breathtaking in its own right.
2 Bedroom Corner Unit at 1100 Millecento – Asking $712,000
Yesterday, while visiting 1100 Millecento, I was able to tour a 2 bedroom corner unit located on the northeast corner of the building (the 10 line). The 2 bed, 2 bath condo has 1,245 interior square feet and a 5-foot deep balcony totaling 187 square feet. The unit comes completely finished with white porcelain tile in the living areas, carpet in both bedrooms, built-in closet in the master bedroom, and shades on all windows. If you are curious to see the finishes and views that 1100 Millecento has to offer, be sure to check out the video below. Currently, this is the only 2 bedroom unit being offered for sale on the MLS, although I’m sure that will change in the weeks and months ahead as more people close on their units and build-outs are completed. Asking price is $712,000, or $572 per square foot.
Sweeping Panoramic Views from the Rooftop Pool Deck of Millecento Residences [VIDEO]
Yesterday afternoon, I visited Millecento Residences for the second time within the past week. Both times I got the opportunity to visit my favorite part of the building – the rooftop pool deck located on the 43rd floor. The sweeping panoramic views from up there are jaw-dropping to say the least. From that vantage point, one is able to gain a true appreciation for the incredible transformation that is currently taking place throughout Brickell. I stood there on that rooftop pool deck yesterday truly grateful for being a part of this city at this particular moment in time. Change can be a beautiful thing, but to see it happening in all directions is magical. Don’t take my word for it though. Watch the video below and see for yourself. I shot the video at 4K resolution. If you are able to do so, I highly suggest that you watch the video at max resolution. It’s almost like you’re there. Technology is a wonderful thing!
Brickell Condo Tour and Construction Update [VIDEO] – February 14, 2015
It has been about four months since my last video tour covering the fast-paced development taking place in Brickell. Since then, a lot has happened, so I figured it was time to get back out on the road and provide everyone with another update. As you will see, this video is much more comprehensive, covering not only current and future construction, but also existing condo developments for those who may be unfamiliar or newly acquainted with the Brickell condo market. In the video, I even highlighted two, large commercial properties in Brickell which recently traded hands – the SunTrust building located at 777 Brickell Avenue, which sold earlier this week for $140M, and the former Capital at Brickell site located at 1420 South Miami Avenue, which was acquired this past December for $74.74M by CCCC International USA LLC, a subsidiary of Beijing’s China City Construction and American Da Tang Group of New York.
Yesterday afternoon, I finally got a chance to show a few condos at BrickellHouse. While there, I was also able to check out the amenities. Surprisingly, up until a few days ago, I hadn’t received one single buyer or rental lead for that building. Actually, I found that to be very surprising, almost to the point of being alarming. When a new building opens, there typically is a lot of interest and excitement from early-adopter-type people who clamor to be one of the firsts to live there. With BrickellHouse, I didn’t see that this time around, and I couldn’t explain why that was. I’ve already been seeing huge interest from people looking to buy or rent at the soon-to-be-opened 1100 Millecento, but interest in BrickellHouse has been lacking – at least from what I’ve been seeing. Again, I can’t explain it, but I’m here to tell you that if you are in the market to buy or rent a condo in Brickell, you should brush aside whatever reservations you may have about BrickellHouse and go check it out. It’s definitely worth considering. I must admit, I wasn’t expecting much from BrickellHouse in the way of views, given that it has buildings surrounding it on all sides, but views it has. They far exceeded my expectations. I showed one unit facing northwest, located on the 28th floor, and another facing southeast, situated on the 11th floor. Both had outstanding views. Just don’t go there, however, expecting to get uninterrupted water views, because you’re not going to get it unless you’re on a really high floor facing southeast, such as in the photo immediately below. I’ve also included a few other shots I took of the views. Unfortunately, I didn’t take any shots of the actual units. One of the condos I showed was a huge mess because it was in the middle of being built out and the other I didn’t a chance to because I was busy talking with my client. Hopefully, I’ll be back again soon and get a chance to take and share some photos of the actual units.
Overall, I was impressed with BrickellHouse. I think it helps fill a sizable gap between existing high-end condos (e.g. Icon Brickell) and mid-range condos (i.e. The Plaza on Brickell and 1060 Brickell).
