You wake inside a 1,953-square-foot, two-story house built in 1954 in Ives Estates, featuring four bedrooms, three baths, and a basement. Morning sunlight fills the beautiful Florida room as the new central AC keeps the climate comfortable across updated floors. You step into the updated kitchen to prepare breakfast, then wander outside past the fenced yard to admire the delicious mango tree growing in the front, shielded beneath the new roof.
Your daily travels move easily across the surrounding avenues. Aventura Mall is about a 4-minute drive away, while Downtown Hollywood and Young Circle are about an 8-minute drive from your door. Hollywood Beach sits about a 9-minute drive out, and the open-air avenues of Bal Harbour Shops await about an 11-minute drive south.
Evenings offer distinct culinary settings across the county. You can experience Calle Ocho in Little Havana for Cuban coffee windows, croquetas, cigar rollers, domino players, and Viernes Culturales. In the Miami Design District, chef-driven rooms and courtyard cafes nestle into luxury shopping blocks. Over in Wynwood, KYU serves wood-fired Asian-inspired sharing plates within an industrial warehouse setting.
Cultural afternoons unfold at Perez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), presenting contemporary art on Biscayne Bay with hanging gardens and a terrace restaurant. You can explore Wynwood Walls and the surrounding arts district, wandering street-art courtyards framed by galleries, breweries, taco windows, and Second Saturday events. Further south stands Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, a 1916 bayfront villa showcasing formal Italian gardens.
Fresh air beckons at Virginia Key Beach North Point Park, a historic beach park complete with a mini-train, nature trails, and calm swimming waters. Tropical Park features lakeside trails, fishing spots, and a paved jogging path through a large county park. At Black Point Marina, you encounter a full-service marina along Biscayne Bay with a fishing pier, boat ramp, and waterfront restaurant.
Weekends invite outings to attractions like Frost Museum of Science, Zoo Miami, and Jungle Island. Retail and entertainment destinations include Brickell City Centre, Bayside Marketplace, and the Miami Design District.
