Grove Isle Condo

Grove Isle Condo has the kind of late-70s high-rise character you don’t see much anymore in Miami: solid construction, generous proportions, and a calm, residential feel that starts the moment you turn onto the island. Built in 1979 by Grove Isle Associates - Cabot, Cabot and Forbes with Martin Margulies, this 19-story resale building keeps things pleasantly low-key with 169 residences and only two-bedroom layouts. The real difference is scale. Homes here run roughly 1,404 to 4,496 square feet, so even the “smaller” units live wide, with room for proper dining, a real laundry setup, and furniture that doesn’t have to hug the walls. Living at Grove Isle Condo feels like having a quiet pocket just off the city’s pulse. You’re minutes from Coconut Grove’s cafes and marinas, a quick hop to Brickell for work or dinners, and close to downtown arts and events, yet the island setting softens the noise. In the area, mornings tend to start with breezy walks and water views, and evenings feel private without being isolated. It’s an easy place to settle into, especially if you want space and a steady, established community.
