6498 Collins Ave

A low-rise, mid-century co-op property built in 1950 with two stories and primarily studio residences. The structure reflects modest postwar construction with simple lines, low massing and a focus on efficient, compact units rather than luxury finishes. Ground-floor and second-floor layouts emphasize single-room living with built-in cabinetry, closet storage, and first-floor entries for some units; a selection includes small private balconies and storm/security shutters typical for coastal properties. Common spaces are minimal, reflecting the building’s economical ownership model and low monthly maintenance profile. Parking is municipal rather than dedicated on-site parking, and exterior work is pragmatic rather than ornamental. The building operates under a co-op/land-lease context with long-term leases affecting ownership transfer and assessments; maintenance fees are low relative to the market. Location is a defining asset — the property fronts Collins Avenue within walking distance of public beach access, transit, grocery and wellness amenities; the surrounding corridor is experiencing redevelopment activity. Pet and service policies vary by the co-op board; unit sales are subject to board approval and co-op rules. Overall the property presents an affordable, income-oriented coastal option with compact studio housing, limited shared amenities, and a location-driven appeal in Miami Beach.
