Located in Lake Villa Three, this penthouse was a rare opportunity—and it moved quickly for a reason. At 2,470 square feet with wraparound terraces, a private elevator, and unobstructed views of the lake, garden, and skyline, it offered what most Ocean Club buyers wait months to find: top-floor privacy, generous interior space, and real-world livability.
So why did it sell?
Why PH4 Sold When Others Don’t
Ocean Club buyers are smart. They don’t just walk into a property—they weigh location, layout, light, and long-term upside. PH4 delivered on all of those. Here’s what made the difference:
- Penthouse Positioning – Quiet, top-floor location with minimal foot traffic
- Split-Plan Layout + Den – Flexible for family, guests, or work-from-home
- Outdoor Living – Two oversized terraces with open views for entertaining or solitude
- Updated Kitchen + New A/C – Buyers want turnkey or close to it
- Strong Community Amenities – Ocean Club’s gym, tennis, spa, and beach access still lead Key Biscayne condo life
It wasn’t underpriced. It was correctly positioned.
How to Decorate Units Like This to Sell
Buyers walk in and feel something. If they don’t, they walk out.
Here’s how to elevate a space like PH4:
- Keep the palette clean – Soft neutrals with organic textures
- Showcase the view – Nothing should block the terraces or distract from the water
- Use scale wisely – Large-format furniture works better than cluttered small pieces
- Staging tip: Create one “wow” moment in the main living space—a gallery wall, bold art piece, or sculptural light fixture. Not both.
Buyers don’t want to imagine. They want to recognize their future life.
If You’re Thinking of Selling in Ocean Club
Now is a smart time to evaluate. Inventory is moving—but only selectively.
Some units are sitting. Others, like PH4, are selling within 30-40 days. The difference is presentation, pricing, and who’s guiding the process.
If you’re considering selling in the next 6–12 months, don’t wait until you feel “ready.”
I know the rhythm of this building. I know the floor plans, the viewlines, and what buyers truly respond to. More importantly—I know when to act.
Let’s talk. Quietly. Strategically.
