Faena House Miami Beach
Faena House Miami Beach
Faena House is a singular achievement in Miami Beach luxury — 18 residences across 18 stories, each occupying an entire floor. Designed by Foster + Partners for the Faena Group and Len Blavatnik, it is the residential centerpiece of the acclaimed Faena District.
The building's restrained exterior and expansive glass facades frame panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, while its one-residence-per-floor configuration ensures an unparalleled sense of seclusion.
With direct ocean frontage, world-class dining by Alain Ducasse steps away, and a permanent position among the most coveted buildings in the market, Faena House is not simply a residence — it is a statement of intent.

Our View on Faena House Miami Beach
Faena House represents the rare intersection of world-class architecture, absolute exclusivity, and cultural significance. Its 18-unit inventory and Foster + Partners pedigree place it in a category that newer buildings cannot replicate.
For buyers considering Faena House, the key consideration is availability. Units trade infrequently, and when they do, the window to act is narrow. We advise qualified buyers to register interest early.
From an investment perspective, Faena House benefits from structural scarcity and a location within the Faena District that continues to appreciate in cultural relevance.

How Pre-Construction Buying Works in Miami
Pre-construction purchases in Miami typically require a 20-50% deposit paid in installments during the construction period (usually 2-3 years). The deposit structure varies by developer but commonly follows this pattern:
- 10% at contract signing
- 10% at groundbreaking
- 10% at top-off (structure completion)
- 10-20% at closing (certificate of occupancy)
Unlike NYC co-ops, Miami condos have no board approval requirements, no income restrictions, and no subletting limitations — making them especially attractive for foreign buyers, investors, and those establishing Florida residency for tax purposes.
