Apogee Condo in Coconut Grove On The Market At Last
One of the hippest and most hidden developments in Coconut Grove is Apogee Condo, a 10 unit complex designed by Robert Altman in 1976. It’s located at the end of the Center Street section that runs off Day Avenue, and is all but invisible through the lush growth all around.
These were the first loft-style condos to be built in South Florida in 1976, and they are as “today” as anything being built in 2010! There are 3 interior levels connected by a stunning wood floating-staircase. The wall facing each private garden also frames all the interior levels, and it’s entirely glass! Each one has a rooftop terrace with outrageous views of the Grove, and an attached two-car garage.
My friend and co-worker, Leslie Jones, has just listed the only one to come on the market in quite a while at 3126 Center Street. It’s original loft floor plan has been kept intact with extensive updates to the kitchen and bathrooms, and the master suite has been enlarged and enclosed for bedroom privacy. The second bedroom has room for an office overlooking the garden with a cozy sleeping loft over its bathroom.




- List Price: $469,000
- Square Feet: 1,591
- 2 Bedrooms, 2 and a Half Baths
- Deck Off Master Suite
- Rooftop Decked Terrace
- 2-Car Garage Attached with Laundry Area
- Community Pool
- Monthly Maintenance: $300
This is a special place to live and I’d love to show it to you. Call me at 305 794.6570 to arrange an appointment.

Grovenor House Sales Almost Double in 2010… So Far

Grovenor House has had 13 sales so far this year, compared to only seven in 2009! There are currently 2 under contract and enough time for more to sell and bump that number even higher.
More good news is that the price per square foot is up impressively, too. Last year’s average square foot price was $518 while this year the number is $570.
To illustrate clearly what this means let’s use one of the three bedroom, three and a half bathroom units with 2,640 square feet. According to the figures above, last year it would have sold for $1,367,520 and this year $1,504,800. To put it another way, last year the apartment would have sold for 91% of what it could bring in 2010!
