Why Seaside Terrace matters
Seaside Terrace is a building from 1948 on Collins Avenue in Surfside with 14 residences.
It is on Collins Avenue (A1A) in the middle of Surfside, a short walk from the Surfside beach and from the town's community center. Bal Harbour Village and its shopping district begin just to the north.
The documented unit size is about 590 square feet, a one-bedroom, one-bath.
Surfside
Surfside is a small town on the barrier island between Miami Beach to the south and Bal Harbour to the north. Its built form is low-rise, with a mix of single-family houses, small apartment buildings and a few larger oceanfront condominiums. Collins Avenue is the main road, with Harding Avenue a block or two west as the commercial street, and the Surfside Community Center and the Tennis Center sit in the town's beachfront parks.
The collapse of Champlain Towers South at 8777 Collins Avenue on June 24, 2021, is the event behind Florida's current condominium rules on structural inspections and reserves. Those rules apply statewide, and the inspection and reserve documents should be read before relying on price.
Bal Harbour Shops is a short walk or drive north, and the Miami Beach Mid-Beach and South Beach districts are to the south.
Architecture and unit composition
The building dates to 1948. The one-bedroom, one-bath plan runs about 590 square feet.
Because the building has 14 residences, the unit schedule is short. Ask the association for the schedule and for floor plans before pricing any unit.
Building operations
Ask what the building provides and what residents arrange for themselves.
Ask whether the building falls under Florida's milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study rules. Ask for the current budget, reserve balance, insurance summary, inspection reports and any assessment notices. Ask for the dates and scope of any replacement of plumbing, electrical and roof systems. The flood zone is X, which is outside the highest-risk zones. Get a flood insurance quote.
Policy framework
Pet, rental and minimum-lease rules are set by the association; confirm at offer stage.
Sales context
One recorded sale, May 2025, at $585,000. It is one sale, not a building price.
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 Seaside Terrace
Get the full unit schedule. Ask for sizes and plans beyond the 590-square-foot one-bedroom.
Read the finances. In a 14-residence building a single assessment is shared by few owners. Request the reserve study, budget, insurance summary and owner delinquency position.
Check financing eligibility. Small buildings can face lender restrictions. Ask early.
What to know if you're selling at Seaside Terrace
Prepare the documents. Budget, reserve study and inspection status shorten diligence.
Price against the same plan. Few trades are recorded inside the building; compare to other small Surfside buildings.

Recorded sales history
Recorded transfers for this building in Miami-Dade County public records, back to Jun 1985. 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.
