In the Downtown Miami Arts & Entertainment District at 1444 Biscayne Boulevard, construction is beginning on Casa Bella by B&B Italia and they are one step closer to being fully sold out. Our very own Michelle Padilla has negotiated an outstanding deal for a client of The Light Group.

The home is an expansive residence with nearly 1,200 square feet, one bedroom with a den, two bedrooms and a beautiful view of the Biscayne Bay and the towers of Edgewater. The last asking price of the unit was $1,235,900, or just over $1,000 per square foot.

As level 7 is on the upper levels of the podium of the building, these floors typically offer more privacy and unique floor plans that are sought after when it comes time to resell, as they are rare. Additionally, since the residence is on the northeast corner of the building it also offers even more privacy, sharing only one common wall.

The Appeal of Casa Bella Residences

With 57 stories of luxurious new residences and amenities overlooking the Biscayne Bay, Casa Bella is one of the most coveted buildings in the area. It was announced at the beginning of 2022 with 306 luxury condos that were 20% sold out within a month of the sales launch.

Today, the building is over 75% sold as construction is beginning. The existing structure has been demolished and site work is underway.

The project is slated to be an amenity-rich white glove residence that caters to multi-cultural owners. The entire staff is multi-lingual and translation services are also offered. A discreet, warm and helpful concierge is available 24-hours offering services with instinctive Italian style.

Some of the services to be offered are housekeeping, pre-arrival grocery delivery, dry cleaning and laundry, arranging childcare or pet care, courier services, personal IT and tech support and of course preferred tickets and reservations.
