Why Bahama House matters
Bahama House was completed in 1963 with 19 residences. It predates the larger towers on the island and sits on Sunrise Drive.
Key Biscayne
Key Biscayne is a barrier island about a mile and a half off the mainland, reached by the Rickenbacker Causeway and then Crandon Boulevard. It is its own municipality, the Village of Key Biscayne, with a village center on Crandon Boulevard. Crandon Park lies at the north end of the island, and Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, with its lighthouse, at the south end. Downtown Miami and Brickell are about 15 minutes away by car in light traffic.
The island has beaches, parks, marinas and a village center, and it has a mix of oceanfront towers, bayside buildings and single-family streets.
Architecture and unit composition
Bahama House has 19 residences. Ask for floor plans and renovation history by unit.
Building operations
Ask the association for the current budget and recent financial statements, the structural integrity reserve study and reserve funding, and the milestone inspection status. Florida's milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study rules apply to condominium buildings of three or more stories; ask whether the building falls under the rules, and ask for the inspection report and any repairs or assessments that followed. Ask also about roofing, windows, seawall or drainage work if relevant, plumbing and electrical systems, and elevator service if any.
Confirm the flood zone, and get the elevation certificate and an insurance quote, including wind coverage, before you commit.
Policy framework
Policies, fees and applications, including pet, rental and minimum-lease rules, are set by the association and should be confirmed at offer stage.
Sales context
One recorded sale, April 2023, at $530,000. It is one sale, not a building price. Price against the specific unit's size, floor, condition and water exposure.
Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.
What to know if you're buying at Bahama House
Get the facts before you value the unit. Ask for floor plans, the association's size schedule, the budget and the rules before you value the unit.
Price the insurance. Flood and wind premiums belong in the carrying cost from the first conversation.

Recorded sales history
Recorded transfers for this building in Miami-Dade County public records, back to Jun 1973. Prices reflect the recorded consideration; transfers the Property Appraiser does not qualify as arms-length are shown unmarked.

Recording lags closing, so the newest sales can take several weeks to appear.
