Living in Key Biscayne

Key Biscayne offers a rare combination of island calm and convenient access to Miami’s major business and cultural districts. The community is surrounded by water and shaped by beaches, parks, marinas and an active outdoor lifestyle.

The local real estate market includes established condominium buildings, luxury oceanfront towers, bayfront residences, townhomes and single-family homes. Buyers often choose Key Biscayne for its residential feel, natural surroundings and access to beaches, boating, cycling and tennis.

Because the island has limited land, location, views, building condition, amenities, association structure and proximity to the beach can significantly influence value.

Compare not only price and square footage, but also building reserves, assessments, insurance, renovation history, views, parking and rental policies.
