Keywords: Private Waterfront Home
About the Area:
Located on the only block in Florida where home front yards face a wide canal leading 100 meters to an expansive area of Biscayne Bay. Built in 1937 this two story Mediterranean style home – Aqua Vista - sits among architecturally rich houses that form a quiet neighborhood in one of the best kept secret enclaves of Miami.
A location where an hour’s exercise walk meanders through ficus and palm tree streets, touches upon water views, birds and parrots nesting, mature landscaping and rarely a drive by car.
Minutes drive from Aqua Vista is what makes Miami what it is – to the east are the sands and blue waters of Miami Beach, to the south are Miami’s newest social and entertainment areas MIMO, the Miami Design District, the Wynwood Art District attracting diners, shoppers and art lovers year around.
And, across the causeway South Beach and the Art Deco District. To the north are the prestigious Bal Harbor Shops, Aventura Mall and the Gulfstream Race Track. And, to the west Miami International Airport only a 20 minutes drive.
Within a 1/2 mile are churches of most denominations, supermarket, drug store and most other day to day necessity shopping and stores.
