Find your family-friendly dream house inside the private gated community of Belle Meade. Located on the northern end of the Upper East Side (known to locals as the MiMo District) off Biscayne Boulevard, Belle Meade is a hidden Miami jewel that’s lined with architecturally savvy homes fitting every family’s busy needs.
An exclusive enclave with 24-hour guarded security, Belle Meade is quiet and secure, making it an idyllic destination to raise children of all ages. Comprised of 390 single-family homes, each reflecting its architectural aesthetic born out of Mediterranean Revival and Art Deco blueprints, there is something to complete every property owner’s taste. Prices in the Belle Meade area range from $500,000 to upwards of 6 million.
Of Belle Meade’s 390 homes, 90 of them are waterfront properties and rest on the water’s edge of Belle Meade Island, overlooking the scenic views along the Little River and Belle Meade Boulevard.
Belle Meade consists of one main guarded gate with its entrance point located east of Biscayne Boulevard on Northeast 76th Street. However, property owners must also clear an additional guard gate after crossing the bridge from the mainland. With safety as an utmost priority to Belle Meade’s residents, property owners can feel at ease, allowing their children to take after-school bike rides or play outside with friends at dusk.
A congenial and professional security staff, with some having worked on the island for over 10 years, protects the island from sunrise to sunset, making it important to know every resident and family by name. Julius Woods, one of Belle Meade’s security guards, was recently awarded an Honor Flight for his time during the US Navy, serving amid World War II.
But although Belle Meade is family-oriented, the homes on the island still showcase glamorous silhouettes with properties varying in size from 1,500 square feet to 2,000 square feet of living space and larger estates ranging from approximately 5,900 square feet on dry lots and 12,300 square feet on waterfront lots.
Engrained with history and charm, 241 of the community’s 390 properties were originally built during Miami’s construction boom, taking place from 1934 to 1942. Capturing the design ingenuities of the time, most of Belle Meade’s estates feature prevailing south-east breezeways with some decorated with wood-burning fireplaces, built-in bookshelves, and interior archways. Other elements often found are reminiscent of the traditional Miami look (such as 1950s terrazzo flooring) in synthesis with modern contemporary touches.
As architecture trends and patterns continued to change throughout the years, the style of the homes on Belle Meade also changed, thus paralleling the growth of Miami’s ambitious architectural innovations.
A balmy, tropical pedestrian pedestrian-friendly neighborhood, Belle Meade is a manifestation of the ultimate South Florida lifestyle with mint-colored palm-shaded trees, verdant landscapes embellished with exotic flora, and the gentle sounds of the water off the bay.
And with walkability to the adjacent MiMo District, residents can enjoy a necklace of decadent new-concept restaurants, kid-friendly attractions, and wildly fun art galleries. Midtown, Miami Design District, Downtown Miami, Brickell, and Miami Beach are in proximity. Miami International Airport, Port of Miami, and Virgin MiamiCentral are approximately 20 minutes away.
