2 Story Full Floor Oceanfront Villa For Sale At 18201 Collins Ave 1709, Miami

Sometimes you just know a home is something different the moment you walk in. That is how it felt stepping into this full floor oceanfront villa up on the seventeenth at 18201 Collins Avenue. It is spread out over two stories which honestly gives you the feeling of living in a real house, tucked way up in the sky above Miami, but never losing that steady hum of the ocean. I leaned against the glass and just listened to the sound of the waves below for a minute. You kind of forget time up there.

The space here is enormous. With seven full bedrooms, there is enough room for everyone and maybe a few more. It is more than eight thousand square feet inside which you really notice when you walk these wide halls and past those big windows. Morning sun pours in early and lights up the living areas. I could imagine waking up just drifting over to one of the four balconies with a coffee. The sunrise really does feel close enough to touch.

The custom touches are everywhere but they do not feel fussy. Take the kitchen, for example. It is proper chef sized, with plenty of space to actually cook, not just pose for pictures. It leads straight into a dining area with a full bar built in. I think people who like to have friends over will love that easy flow from kitchen to table to the living room. The aquarium caught me by surprise. It runs almost the full length of the room and has this soft glow. It is the sort of thing you sit by sometimes instead of turning on the television. Little details like that make the space feel alive.

There are spots for everyone to find their own quiet—home office set up so you can actually get some work done if you ever want to, a kid's playroom that is tucked away enough to keep the noise at bay, plus a real fitness area with enough space for more than just a yoga mat. The bedrooms themselves are set up so you do not feel crowded or squeezed together. Each one has its own bathroom and you notice the privacy.

The neighborhood down below is one reason people love this part of Florida. Miami just has a rhythm. You can always find a waterfront trail or a sunny terrace café for breakfast. And out here, ocean views are more than just a backdrop. From almost every corner of this home, you can see either the coastline stretching out or boats gliding down the intercoastal. Sometimes you spot families heading to the beach or kids riding their bikes as the sun goes down.

Amenities in the building do make life easier. There are four different pools, each with their own feel—some for laps, one that is better for relaxing and reading a book. The spa is actually worth trying, and the fitness center is stepped up compared to most places I have seen. Concierge and valet are always at the ready, so coming and going never feels like a chore. There is tennis if you are in the mood and even a business center when work calls. Storage is not a worry either, since there are extra storage units and even semi private garage spaces included.

One thing that really stands out is the double sized cabana on the ocean. It is got its own kitchen and bathroom, plus a rare direct garage access which makes beach days pretty effortless. It is the type of spot where you will probably want to spend whole weekends without ever stepping foot upstairs.

I think places like this are best experienced in person. If anything here is making you picture yourself by the ocean or feeling Miami's light, your next step is probably just to come see it for yourself.
