The Roads is off the grid — literally
The residential pocket of The Roads might be just minutes from Miami’s bustling business and entertainment sectors, but it occupies its own small alcove where the streets run perpendicular to the city’s standard grid style. “It’s akin to the fold on the corner of a bed, or when you’re wrapping a present, and there’s that little tuck you have to make,” says Gina Robichaux, Realtor with Coldwell Banker and longtime resident of South Florida. A product of Miami’s legacy Brickell family, this 1920s neighborhood was designed to be a haven for pedestrians and native plants, and it’s remained that way for more than 100 years. But the neighborhood also attracts residents with its convenience to downtown Miami, major shopping centers, the Brickell financial district and HCA Florida Mercy Hospital. “You get a nice little neighborhood, but you’re also in the middle of the urban access,” Robichaux says. “If you want a single-family home and you work downtown, this is a great way not to have a horrible commute.” Commuting pretty much anywhere is easy with the neighborhood’s proximity to both Interstate 95 and U.S. Route 1, not to mention the accessibility of the Miami Metrorail. Balanced between downtown Miami and the quaint Coconut Grove, The Roads offers a walkable respite from the city’s bustle while staying close to all the action.

Homes in The Roads span decades
Although the neighborhood was originally built between the 1920s and 1940s, homes in The Roads span the decades from original Old Spanish-style cottages to massive 21st-century contemporary estates. “All these homes are in really good condition. The ones that weren’t have been torn down and replaced with million-dollar modern homes,” Robichaux says. A million dollars is on the low end, though, with newly constructed four- and five-bedroom homes listing for $4 million or more. Even homes from the 1920s can sell for more than $2 million if they’ve been well cared for; many boast updated windows and roofs to comply with the latest hurricane preparedness standards — an important factor in buying a home on the Florida coast. A few luxury condos sit along Southwest Third Avenue, and most two-bedroom units are listed between $400,000 and $600,000.
The Roads features both modern and antique family homes.

Nearby Alice Wainwright Park sits right on the waterfront with a playground and outdoor gym station, and the elegant landscape of Vizcaya Museum and Gardens is right down the road. It takes about 8 miles to reach Miami Beach, where visitors can stroll the boardwalk or visit the Miami Beach Botanical Garden.
