All the Bay Harbor Islands Pre-construction Condo Projects You Need to Know About

by Barbara Ciaccio Morales

 

 

 

Bay Harbor Islands, once a quiet bayfront town between Miami Beach and mainland Miami, is experiencing a revival. This small neighborhood is now bustling with new construction as boutique waterfront condos replace old 1950s buildings. Clean, quiet, and pristine, this area was overlooked during the building boom of the early 2000s.

With new zoning rules and a prime waterfront location, Bay Harbor Islands’ pre-construction projects now compete with South Beach, offering larger floor plans, boutique living, and private marinas with ocean access, often at better prices than Miami Beach. The demand for luxury housing and limited waterfront parcels have attracted major developers, making South Florida a top destination to live and work.

Curious about the latest buzz? Here are 15 new pre-construction condo projects set to transform Bay Harbor Islands into one of Miami's most desirable neighborhoods.

— Is Bay Harbor Islands a Good Place to Live? 

Surrounded by Biscayne Bay, and with a quintessential small-town feel, this island community’s location is hard to beat as it is only a mile from world-class shopping at the Bal Harbour Shops and the ocean. Here you’ll find an incredibly safe, family-friendly neighborhood, a K-8 school, quaint bistros, fine dining, and boutique retail, as well as some of the softest sands and secluded beach fronts in the Bal Harbour and Surfside area.

Living in Bay Harbor Islands will always carry a sense of community considering the islands are almost exclusively residential, with many single-family homes and strict height limits for all other buildings. For anyone looking for less-crowded oceanfront living for a fraction of the cost of areas like Miami Beach, or if you want something different from Downtown Miami or Brickell’s high-rise culture, real estate in Bay Harbor Islands presents a great opportunity.

If this sounds like your cup of tea and you would like more information on pricing, remaining units, or early bird discounts on any of the Bay Harbor Islands pre-construction condos, call, chat, or email us directly!
