3135 S Ocean Dr

A low-rise coastal residential complex built in 1963, this three-story community is composed primarily of one-bedroom floorplans, many configured with a convertible space that functions like a second bedroom or den. The architecture is modest midcentury low-rise vernacular with exterior features such as private balconies, porches, decks and storm/hurricane shutters; outdoor lighting, fences and small enclosed porches reinforce a compact, semi-private site layout. Interiors typically present single-level living with first-floor entries, living/dining combinations, pantry space, walk-in closets and a mix of shower/tub arrangements. Common facilities center on social and seasonal leisure: a renovated heated pool with shaded seating, a clubhouse for gatherings, and direct pedestrian access to the beach and adjacent Intracoastal Waterway. Property management emphasizes low-maintenance ownership in a cooperative-style setting; many listings note deeded land ownership by the association, limited rental flexibility, and age-restricted residency (55+). Parking is basic and service offerings are minimal, reflecting the building’s focus on turnkey, second-home or retirement use within an active beachside neighborhood near shopping, dining and regional attractions like Aventura Mall and Gulfstream racetrack.
