Not a condo. Not a compromise. This three-story townhome sits in the heart of one of South Florida's most storied and sought-after neighborhoods — the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk corridor — where walkable streets, ocean breezes, and an iconic waterfront promenade define the lifestyle. Located between the Broadwalk and the Intracoastal, the home is steps from newly paved Virginia Street, your private pathway to the sand. Three thoughtfully designed levels give you space to live the way you choose — and the flexibility to earn while you're at it. The main living level greets you with an open, sun-filled layout with generous room to make it your own. Upstairs, the primary suite is joined by two additional rooms and a balcony with peeks of the ocean — a reminder of exactly where you are. What truly sets this property apart is the ground-level suite with its own separate entrance — a self-contained space that opens the door to genuine income potential. Short-term rentals are permitted with restrictions, meaning you can occupy the main home, lease the lower level, or rent the entire property depending on your goals. In a neighborhood dominated by condos, this is the rare find that gives you ownership without the compromise. Offered at an exceptional entry-point price for Hollywood Beach, opportunities like this don't last. Your own slice of Hollywood Beach, with the upside to match.

A rare opportunity to acquire a renovated income-producing property in the heart of Miami’s rapidly transforming Overtown neighborhood, with exceptional long-term redevelopment upside. The property is ideal for an owner-user or investor and benefits from highly desirable T6-8 O zoning, allowing 8 to 12 stories of development as of right. Even more compelling, under Florida’s Live Local Act, developers may have the ability to match the maximum height and density of nearby Miami Worldcenter properties located within a one-mile radius, creating substantial additional development potential. Directly across the street is The Walker, a $21.4 million workforce housing development being spearheaded by the City’s Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency and Krea USA, while adjacent to the property sits the historic People's BBQ, currently undergoing redevelopment and expected to reopen soon. Comparable development sites nearby with inferior zoning are listed as high as $1.5 million, highlighting the significant land value opportunity. Positioned within one of Miami’s most active urban redevelopment corridors, this property offers immediate cash flow, substantial entitlement upside, and exposure to a neighborhood benefiting from significant public and private investment.
