Wake up to the sound of the ocean, step downstairs, and walk straight onto the sand. This is true oceanfront living in an intimate, boutique setting. A rare opportunity to own a true oceanfront three-bedroom residence in Miami Beach at an exceptional value. Located in an intimate, boutique building with only 79 residences, Unit 903 offers direct Atlantic Ocean views, abundant natural light, and a highly functional layout designed for comfortable, everyday living. This high-floor residence is move-in ready, featuring a spacious primary suite, well-proportioned secondary bedrooms, and an open living area oriented toward the ocean. While the interiors are clean and well maintained, the true value lies in the irreplaceable oceanfront location, scarcity of three-bedroom inventory, and long-term lifestyle appeal. Capobella is a full-service oceanfront building offering 24-hour security, beach access, pool, fitness center, and a distinctly residential atmosphere rarely found along Collins Avenue. Ideal for a primary residence, second home, or long-term hold, this is one of the very few oceanfront three-bedroom opportunities in Miami Beach currently available below $1.7 million. Vacant and easy to show.
