Why Ocean Drive Manors matters
Ocean Drive Manors is a 1968 building of 21 residences. Ocean Drive runs along the island's oceanside, and the beach is across the street. Upper floors look toward the ocean, the island's parkland and, on some lines, the Miami skyline; confirm the exposure by line.

Key Biscayne and Ocean Drive
Key Biscayne is an island village south of Virginia Key, reached by the Rickenbacker Causeway. Crandon Park occupies much of the north end, with a long public beach, and Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park holds the south end, including the 1825 lighthouse. The village itself, incorporated in 1991, sits between them along Crandon Boulevard. The island is low-density residential, with a beach, parks and marinas within a short drive of Brickell.
Architecture and unit composition
The building rises eight floors, with a pool and garden court at grade. Get the floor plan for the specific unit; the plan on record is a two-bedroom of about 1,365 square feet.
Building operations
Ask about management, staffing, parking and security. Standard asks for any Florida condominium purchase: the current budget and recent financial statements and reserve funding. Florida's milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study rules apply to condominium buildings of three or more stories; ask for the inspection report, the reserve study and any assessment history. Ask for any repair scope and any assessment completed or planned. Ask about flood and windstorm coverage and the association's insurance renewal.
Policy framework
Pet, rental and minimum-lease rules are set by the association; confirm at offer stage.
Sales context
One recorded sale, April 2025, at $805,000. It is one sale, not a building price. Use recent same-size sales on the island as the check, and adjust for floor, exposure and renovation.
Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

Recorded sales history
Recorded transfers for this building in Miami-Dade County public records, back to May 1973. Prices reflect the recorded consideration; transfers the Property Appraiser does not qualify as arms-length are shown unmarked. Nominal-consideration paper transfers (deeds into trusts and LLCs, estate and family transfers, corrective deeds) are part of the record but not sales, and are omitted from this table. Recording lags closing, so the newest sales can take several weeks to appear.
