Just Listed – Stunning 2 Bed/2 Bath Condo at Paramount Bay w/ Storage Room Included
I’m pleased to announce our newest listing – a stunning 2 bed/2 bath condo at Paramount Bay with 1,128 interior square feet, an 8-foot deep terrace totaling 242 square feet, white porcelain tiled flooring throughout, private elevator, 10-foot high ceilings with floor-to-ceiling glass windows, large walk-in closet with built-in cabinets, stone kitchen countertops, and stainless steel appliances by Wolf and Sub-Zero. Most importantly, this residence features sweeping, breathtaking views of Biscayne Bay from the kitchen, master bedroom, and master bathroom, including from within the glass-enclosed shower. Price includes a 150 square foot storage room located directly across the hallway from this unit.
The property is currently tenant-occupied but the tenant is scheduled to vacate by December 15th. Priced to sell quickly. Asking $789,000. Last November, unit 1008 (exact same floor plan but located 9 floors lower on the 10th floor) sold fully furnished for $790,000. In my opinion, those 9 floors make a world of difference and more than make up for the fact that this property is being offered unfurnished.
Paramount Bay condos is located at 2020 North Bayshore Drive in Edgewater – Miami’s hottest, emerging neighborhood. Amenities include: east and west swimming pools; hot tub; BBQ; 24-hour concierge; 24-hour valet parking; 6,000 square foot spa and fitness center with sauna, steam and private treatments rooms; business lounge; and separate teen and children’s playrooms. Paramount Bay is a pet-friendly condo development.

Biscayne Beach – Construction Update (Photos)
Of all the condo developments that are completed or currently under construction in Edgewater, Biscayne Beach is by far my favorite. It will be the only condo development in Miami to include an actual beach. How awesome is that? Some of you, especially non-locals, may be thinking, “So what? There’s tons of sand in Miami.” Well, that’s where you’d be wrong. Miami is situated along the bay, not the ocean, and, therefore, does not have sand-filled, waterfront land. On the other hand, Miami Beach, which is a completely different city from Miami, has plenty of sand along its coast, because it’s situated along the Atlantic Ocean. And the rest of you may be thinking, “Duh, well of course.” Sorry, but I feel the need to clarify that very rudimentary point for locals, because, so often, I come across people who aren’t from Miami who think that Miami Beach is a beach off the coast of Miami and that beaches there are plentiful.
Anyway, enough with the geography lesson – all that is about to change. The developer of Biscayne Beach is bringing the beach to Miami. Residents of Biscayne Beach and their guests will be just an elevator ride away from feeling the sand on the bottoms of their feet and/or enjoying a cocktail at the beach club bar. The atmosphere at Biscayne Beach should truly be a unique and special experience. The building hasn’t even been completed, yet every time I drive by it, the song “Beachball” by Nalin and Kane comes to mind. For those of you who have never heard of that song, “Beachball” was the 1997 international dance club hit. The song starts off with the words, “Yeah, let’s go to the beach”. The rest of the song is then filled with rhythmic yet soothing beats and voices. Such an amazing track! To me, it embodies the energy and atmosphere that one will find at Biscayne Beach once it is completed.
Construction of Biscayne Beach is well on its way. Earlier today, I made a visit to the construction site to show a 2 bedroom condo at Platinum. While there, I had an opportunity to snap some photos showing the progress being made to Biscayne Beach. By my count, construction has reached the 26th floor. Below are the photos I took this afternoon. Oh, and in case you’re wondering, just a handful of units remain at Biscayne Beach, one of which is a two-story grand penthouse residence with 4 bedrooms, a den, a study, wine room, 5 full bathrooms, and a rooftop terrace with private plunge pool and summer kitchen. The penthouse has 7,878 interior square feet plus an additional 2,785 square feet of outdoor space. Asking $9,450,900 ($1,200 per square foot).
Elysee Condos – Edgewater’s First Ultra-Luxury Condo Development
With new condo developments being announced seemingly on a weekly basis, there are few that excite me these days. Elysee -a recently announced, ultra-luxury tower with just 100 total units – is one that does. Elysee exudes exclusivity and elegance in every way imagined. The 57-story condo development will be located directly on the water in Edgewater at 700 Northeast 23rd Street and include 3, 4, and 5 bedroom floor plans ranging from 2,844 to 3,979 interior square feet. With the exception of the penthouse – which will cover an entire floor and offer full 360-degree views – each of the units below it will span a half floor and offer full 180-degree views (east-south-west or east-north-west). As you can see in the mini scale model above, the floor plans get wider as you go up the building. Every residence at Elysee will have private elevators, 8- or 10-foot deep balconies, and 10- or 11-foot high ceilings with walls of glass all around to showcase the spectacular water and city views.
Most importantly – at least to me – Elysee will be a white-glove service building (think St. Regis). Not enough can be said about how exclusive and differentiating it is for a building to offer such pampering services to its residents. Along with the full-service concierge, Elysee will feature lavish full-floor amenities on both the 7th and 30th floors. The 7th floor will include a 75-foot resort pool; outdoor summer kitchen & BBQ; men’s and women’s spa with sauna, steam shower, and private massage rooms; fitness center; yoga studio; children’s playroom; and blow dry bar.
As if that weren’t enough, the 30th floor – which residents will be able to rent out for formal events – will feature a great room with grand piano and sweeping, unobstructed views of the city and water; chef’s kitchen; chef’s table with indoor and outdoor seating; grand dining room with seating for 30 people; theater room with 4K projector; full lounge bar; business center; resident wine storage; and game room.
Prices for the half floor units at Elysee start from $1.67M. That amounts to just $587 per square foot! Given the caliber of building that Elysee will be, that has bargain written all over it. There are few condo developments in Miami to get excited about these days, but Elysee is the exception. It will set the bar not only for condo developments throughout Edgewater but throughout all of Miami.
Elysee was soft-launched late last week. However, it won’t officially be released to the public until October once the sales center is built. This is the time to get in at Friends & Family pricing. Contact me for details.
Welcome to excellence! Designed with precision, Marina Blue unit 5602 is an impeccable residence offering some of the very best, awe-inspiring views of the Atlantic Ocean, Biscayne Bay, Port of Miami, and Downtown Miami skyline. Over $250,000 in upgrades, furniture, lighting, electronics, and artwork. Located on the 56th floor, unit 5602 features hard wood floors; motorized shades; blackout curtains; custom lighting; artwork by acclaimed artists; large, custom-built walk-in closets in both bedrooms; and a state-of-the-art electronics package, which includes a 3D TV, Blu-Ray 3D player, Bose surround sound system, and security camera system with remote viewing capability.
Very unique floor plan. Only 5 of its kind in the entire building. One of just a few units in all of Downtown Miami offering a direct water view and balcony access from BOTH bedrooms. In almost every other case, the view from the second bedroom faces west (away from the water) and/or does not have balcony access. The same can be said for most 3 bedroom units throughout Downtown Miami. Having an amazing water view is one of, if not, the biggest reasons to buy a condo in Miami, so why not buy a condo which would afford you the opportunity to enjoy the breathtaking views from EVERY room?
If you’re in search for the very best, look no further! Contact Lucas Lechuga for showings. I can be reached on my cell phone at 786-247-6332 or via email at [email protected].
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.

Exclusive, First-Look at the $2M Sales Center for Paramount Miami Worldcenter
Earlier today, I was given an exclusive, first-look at the $2M sales center for Paramount Miami Worldcenter. Wow! That was the first word out of my mouth as I entered the stunning, two-story showroom. Immediately, my eyes caught sight of the massive, wall-sized video display – such an impressive way to present the development. While there today, I was given the opportunity to watch on the big screen an unreleased video for Paramount Miami Worldcenter. I swear, the video gave me chills. It does an amazing job of conveying to the viewer just how spectacular Paramount Miami Worldcenter is going to be once it is completed. Not only that, it gives you a glimpse into the future of what is yet to come for the neighborhood. People are going to be super impressed with that video once it is released to the public.
The sales center, which is still a work in progress, is expected to be completed and opened to the public by the end of this month. At that point, preconstruction prices are expected to increase to coincide with the launch of sales to the public. Currently, units can only be reserved through the developer’s friends and family program. With prices starting at $550 per square foot, there are still a number of great options remaining. If you have an interest in learning more about Paramount Miami Worldcenter, please do not hesitate to contact me. I can be reached on my cell phone at 786-247-6332 or via email at [email protected].
