Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a piece of South Miami’s architectural legacy. This captivating 5BD/2BA cottage brings the character of another era into the present, thoughtfully restored and extensively renovated while preserving the details that give the home its soul. Warm wood floors flow through light-filled living and dining spaces, while the original central staircase remains a striking connection to the home’s early craftsmanship. Upstairs, sloped ceilings and tucked-away spaces lend a warmth and character rarely found today. A renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, two updated bathrooms, and a flexible five-bedroom layout provide the comfort and versatility of modern living. A welcoming covered front porch and spacious backyard complete this increasingly rare South Miami setting. Beneath its timeless character lies an extensive program of structural and mechanical improvements, including a new roof, new HVAC, all-new electrical and plumbing systems, new exterior walls, steel I-beam reinforcement beneath the home, and enhanced structural anchoring with 6-foot brass bolts at each corner. Renovations were completed with City of South Miami permits by a professional team of architects, engineers, and a licensed general contractor. Carefully preserved, substantially renewed, and ready for its next chapter.
