The High End Appeal of South of Fifth

Miami Beach is full of high-end, upscale communities and neighborhoods like Indian Creek, La Gorce, Star Island, and the four Sunset Islands.  Although it’s not an official community, the area known as South of Fifth has also come to represent some of the most spectacular and high end properties in the barrier island and has evolved into one of the most exclusive addresses in the barrier island.

South of Fifth—or SoFi as it’s also called—manages to capture the best qualities of living in South Beach while avoiding the noise and clogging that typically builds up to the north of 5th Street.  South of Fifth is considerably more laid back and relaxed, with a stronger sense of community.  The area is known for being pedestrian friendly and perhaps most notably, is home to some of the most valuable properties in Miami Beach.  These properties include the affluent Apogee condo, the soaring Portofino Tower, the two Continuum buildings, and many more.

Besides the high end appeal of South of Fifth real estate, the majority of its homes are all located right next to or just a couple of blocks away from Miami Beach’s namesake sands and popular thoroughfares like Ocean Drive.  The area is also home to great places to eat like classic Joe’s Stone Crab and Smith & Wollensky.
