Hotel style studio * *Hot tub * Design District

A centrally located gem with historic charm, our Miami home is located five minutes away from the Design District and just 10 minutes from Midtown. The extensively renovated cottage is a separate property located at the back of our 1920s Mediterranean home, and features an enclosed yard with seating and full use of a shared hot tub. The cottage has two apartments with their own entrances.

The property is located within walking distance of both the Design District and Midtown Miami – the Institute of Contemporary Art, galleries and restaurants, high-end shops like Fendi and Gucci, and also shopping essentials like Target. This is one of the few places you are able to walk everywhere!

In the other direction there is a 5 minute walk to upper Buena Vista boutique complex which consists of outdoor dining and coffee shops and boutique stores. We are also surrounded by some fo the best restaurants such as Mandolin consistently voted one of th best outdoor restaurants in Miami.

If you have a car or grab an Uber you can travel 15 minutes to Miami Beach, 15 minutes to the airport, 15 minutes to Downtown/Brickell, and the easiest closet beach would be heading straight across NE79th Street to North Beach (10 to 15 minute drive)

The king bed is in its own space. We wanted to have an open floor plan, so the king bed can be separated from the kitchen and living area with a large curtain. The King bed has a leather frame and a very comfortable memory foam mattress. You also get a sofa bed in the living room area.
