Listing: Retire In Style Co-Op

You don't often find a co-op apartment building in Miami.  Co-ops are different than condos because you never own the physical property or have a deed.  Instead, you own shares in a corporation and those shares give you the right to occupy a particular apartment and use common facilities.  In this case, it also means very stable, low monthly costs and a great 55+ community.

This is a cozy 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment at Mar-Len Garden Apartments in North Miami Beach.  The well established 55+ community is the epitome of comfortable, affordable living for seniors.

While it is not on water, it does have two community pools (one of which is heated) and a lot of great grounds to enjoy.  Take a walk around, there is always something to do.

Besides the pool, there is shuffleboard, bocce, a gym and an auditorium where free shows are regularly scheduled for residents.  It is the kind of community that gives an immediate sense of security, independence and serenity.

The bedrooms are decent sizes and the kitchen was redone in 2002.  The unit itself could use a refresh, since the prior owner only used it periodically.  The last time they visited was in 2006.  With minimal effort, this can be a great place for a senior to enjoy life and entertain guests.

Located within a block of a major shopping area, there is no need to use your car to get anything!  Walk to restaurants, groceries, household goods and more within 5 minutes, all the while knowing that you can be back in your beautiful gated apartment complex and swimming minutes later.
