Description
High above the turquoise waters of Key Biscayne rises a penthouse that simply cannot be replicated. Once featured in Architectural Digest, this legendary corner residence at Grand Bay is a statement of scale, design, and presence. From sunrise over the Atlantic to glittering sunsets across Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline, the views are cinematic in every direction, offering endless blue water, golden light, and exceptional privacy. Spanning an extraordinary 8,435 square feet under air and 2,825 square feet of terraces, totaling 11,260 square feet as per the developer’s floor plan, the residence is defined by soaring 12-foot ceilings and grand proportions throughout. A dramatic foyer leads to a spectacular Grand Room designed for both intimate living and large-scale entertaining. The formal dining room is separate and elegant, while the completely remodeled kitchen and family room provide comfort and functionality. The fully renovated private library and custom bar enhance the home’s entertaining appeal. The primary suite is serene and expansive. All the bathrooms have just been completely remodeled, offering a fresh spa-inspired experience finished to today’s highest standards. Four (4) additional en-suite bedrooms ensure comfort and privacy. The terraces offer expansive outdoor living in the sky, perfect for sunrise mornings and sunset evenings overlooking the water and skyline. This is not simply a penthouse. It is a landmark residence, rare and impossible to duplicate.
Property Overview
This is a 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath condominium of about 8435 square feet at 445 Grand Bay Drive # 1A, Key Biscayne FL 33149 (Key Biscayne 33149), listed at $18,900,000.
Monthly Costs, Stated Plainly
The monthly HOA/maintenance fee is not stated on the listing record. A condominium like this carries a mandatory association fee, so never state there is no HOA — confirm the exact current monthly assessment before offering.
The tax of record is $54,141 (2025). As an ESTIMATE ONLY — Florida reassesses at sale — at this price and a Miami-Dade rate near 2.0%: without homestead, about $378,000/yr (≈ $31,500/mo); with the homestead exemption on a primary residence, about $377,000/yr (≈ $31,417/mo). Confirm with the Miami-Dade Property Appraiser and a tax professional — these are estimates, not quotes.

Is the home in a flood zone, and what does that mean?
The property is located in a FEMA-designated flood zone. Flood zones indicate a location's statistical risk of flooding, and the specific designation for this address can be verified using the FEMA flood map for this address.

Are pets allowed?
Pets are allowed, with restrictions (or possible restrictions). The listing notes "Restrictions Or Possible Restrictions," so we will pull the condominium association's exact current pet rules for this unit on request.
If a documented service or support animal is involved, separate federal accommodation rules can apply. To verify the specific regulations for 445 Grand Bay Drive, contact Christopher Lazaro, Key Biscayne Real Estate Expert.
How is the price set and is there room to negotiate?
The price is set using a comparative market analysis of recent Key Biscayne sales. In the broader market, Miami-Dade condos have recently been closing at 94% of list, about 64 days on market (MIAMI REALTORS®, May 2026). This establishes a baseline, but the specific valuation for 445 Grand Bay Drive is refined by its building's recent activity.
Before you consider an offer, I will provide a detailed CMA for Key Biscayne properties to verify the current position. To review that analysis and discuss strategy, you should contact Christopher Lazaro, Key Biscayne Real Estate Expert.

I recommend securing a full pre-approval before touring a property at this level. Please consult a Florida Licensed Mortgage Loan Originator to review your financial position.
