Default Are there any newer single family home communities near Brickell area or in Brickell?

Looking for Single Family Home that would be a close commute to the Key Biscayne are on a daily basis. We are looking for a home that would be relatively newer from year 2000 and up. Thought of the Brickell area but all that I find here is Condos. Can anyone suggest any communities?

Thanks

You should look at the "Roads" area directly SW of Brickell, lots of neat, single family homes built form the 1920's to the 1950's in that area. Look directly west of Coral Way and SW 26th Rd. Also, Coconut Grove is a couple miles south on US-1.

I thought the OP said year 2000 and up. Does that sound like 1920's or 1950's ??

I don't think the Roads area has too many newer homes. I can't think of any areas close to Key Biscayne that are newer and not condos. You may find the oddball new construction on a lot that had an older home before but the homes around it wouldn't be so new, albeit many may have been gutted and remodeled.

Oh my god!!! You won't find whole streets filled with new homes anywhere near Brickell. The ones that 'look' newer were most likely renovated.

Yes, vp is correct. That area of Miami is very old and realtors had to settle with building condos (no space available) The newer communities are always gonna be on the west side of the County with long commutes (Doral, Kendall, Miami Lakes, Pembroke Pines etc)
