I just listed a townhouse in Center Coconut Grove that is a great buy.  It is in excellent condition and offers many special features including tile and wood floors, french doors leading to two outdoor terraces, vaulted ceilings upstairs, 2 parking spaces, 3 year old roof, and plenty of storage.  The townhouse is not a condominium so FHA financing is possible.  It is a 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath with 1,500 square feet of living space.  The townhouse is being offerred at $359,000.

Street Name Changes In North Coconut Grove

April 1st, 2011 | categories: Coconut Grove Real Estate

The effort by homeowners to change the numbered streets in North Coconut Grove is progressing and the City has approved funding for the project.  When it happens, the name change will have a positive impact on home values in that section of Coconut Grove.  

In my opinion, they should change 17th and 22nd Avenue (east of US1) to named streets as well because those homeowners suffer an immediate bias from potential Grove buyers.  

Anyone second a motion for “Riley Way”?

Here is a list of the real proposed street changes:

  • 29th Street will become Overbrook Street
  • 27th Lane will become Tequesta Lane
  • 27th Way will become Tequesta Way
  • 24th Avenue will become Calusa Street
  • 23rd Avenue will become Kirk Street
  • 27th Terrace will become Secoffee Terrace
