About This Home

As of April 2026

Imagine waking up each day in this charming corner pool home in Surfside, where the atmosphere is calm and relaxed, steps from the ocean, offering privacy, space, and a peaceful coastal setting.
Situated on an oversized corner lot directly across from multi-million-dollar waterfront estates, this residence blends privacy, prestige, and long-term value. The beach, Bal Harbour Shops, Indian Creek Island — known as the “Billionaire Bunker” — parks, and local amenities are all within walking distance, creating a highly walkable coastal lifestyle.
The home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with an intelligent layout that separates the sleeping areas from the main living spaces. The spacious garage currently includes the laundry area and plumbing to reinstall a third bathroom, and it can be converted into an additional bedroom or flexible living space, offering the potential to create a comfortable fourth bedroom or expand the interior living area. A private side entrance provides additional flexibility for a home office, guest suite, or independent living space.
Outdoors, enjoy a pool, Jacuzzi, summer kitchen, and covered terrace designed for year-round enjoyment and entertaining.
With a 2020 roof, solid upgrades, limited inventory, and strong demand in Surfside, this property offers both lifestyle appeal and long-term value. Homes on quiet streets like this are rarely available.
