1185 Marseille Dr

A low-rise waterfront condo complex in Miami Beach’s Normandy Isle, built in 1960 and rising three stories, notable for its Miami Modern-era proportions and water-facing orientation. The property contains mostly one- and two-bedroom residences arranged around a central circulation core with elevator access and first- and ground-level entries. Units commonly feature high ceilings, tiled floors or updated vinyl, open living/dining plans, renovated kitchens and baths, walk-in closets or ample closet space, and a mix of balcony/patio connections that emphasize natural light and water views. Exterior amenities focus on outdoor living: a gated entry with keypad security, free-form swimming pool and open deck overlooking the intracoastal waterway, waterfront barbecue and seating areas, assigned parking spaces plus additional street parking, and laundry facilities on site. The building supports active waterfront lifestyles with direct paddling and fishing access from the grounds and is pet friendly. Practical features include storm/security shutters or high-impact doors, central air conditioning, and on-site management or maintenance services typical of small condo associations. Located within walking distance of beaches, neighborhood restaurants, markets and parks, the complex sits in a low-density residential pocket of North Beach that blends recreational access with easy proximity to shopping and dining.
