High-rise condos dominate Edgewater's housing market

Edgewater’s skyline is defined by glass towers and high-rise condos along Biscayne Bay. Most properties were built in the 21st century, reflecting a wave of luxury construction that reshaped the waterfront corridor through the 2000s and 2010s. “It’s really turned around with all the new buildings and preconstruction,” Dias says. “They can’t build them fast enough.” Units typically feature floor-to-ceiling windows, open layouts and private balconies with bay and skyline views. In many buildings, you can find resort-style amenities like bayfront pools, fitness centers, spas and wine cellars. The community has a wide price range. Studios and one-bedroom units can cost between the lower $200,000s and around $1.1 million. Two-bedroom condos range from the upper $300,000s to around $2 million. Prices for larger units fall between the upper $500,000s and around $4 million. Homeowners association fees are common and often exceed $1,000 per month.

Courts for tennis, basketball and volleyball share the grounds with an outdoor gym, a playground and a dog park. You can also rent paddleboards and kayaks for a trip out on the bay. Just north of the neighborhood, Jose Milton Park at E. Albert Pallot Green Space has a small playground and walking paths. The sandy coastline of Miami Beach is a short drive away across the MacArthur Causeway or Interstate 195.
