South Beach:
When people think of Miami Beach, most often they are referring to the historic Art Deco section, which runs from 5th Street at the southern point of the island to roughly Dade Boulevard in the north. The world’s largest and most diverse architecture from the Art Deco period can be found in South Beach, from impressive hotels to apartment buildings, to a sprinkling of art deco single family homes. The housing stock in South Beach offers opportunities to buy turnkey properties or those which need some updating or remodeling. The area has a good stock of entry-level beach homes with many studio and one-bedroom condominiums, available with and without water views. South Beach is celebrated for its nightlife, great boutique hotels, a superb ocean boardwalk, interesting restaurants and shopping opportunities for all budgets. Profile of residents includes young couples, empty-nesters, families, and singles – both straight and gay. The Venetian Islands, strung like pearls across Biscayne Bay from Miami Beach to Miami, have chic waterfront and non-waterfront homes. Part of the Miami Beach, the islands of Biscayne, DiLido, Rivo Alto, San Marino and San Marco are in the same 33139 zipcode as South Beach.
