“A farmer named this ground ‘plenty’ in 1897. Then they quarried it.”
At 7:40 on a weekday morning, NE 25th Avenue is part of the school run. A block north, Scheck Hillel Community School moves roughly 1,250 students onto a 14-acre campus, and the cars stack up past the corner where a ten-story building is now going up on what was, until 2025, a single-family lot.
This is the street EDEN at Aventura was built for — not the skyline, not the bay, but a specific block in Ojus where a particular kind of buyer already spends most of their week. Among boutique condos for sale in Aventura and the streets immediately around it, very few are aimed this precisely at one corner.
EDEN at Aventura — Ten Stories on Ojus’s Most Walked Block
The Ground Before the Building
Ojus got its name in 1897 from Albert Fitch, a farmer who came for the soil and planted pineapples; the word is Seminole for “plenty,” and for a while the place lived up to it with peas, beans, sugar cane and tomatoes. Then, after 1900, someone noticed that the limestone under the farms was ideal for road building.
The Maule Ojus Rock Company dug it out by the ton, and the lakes scattered across the neighborhood today are the pits they left behind. One of those pits belonged to A.O. Greynolds, who donated it to Dade County; the Civilian Conservation Corps turned it into Greynolds Park in 1936, building its coral-rock structures from stone quarried on site.
That is the ground EDEN sits on — a neighborhood named for abundance that spent most of a century being carted away for pavement, and is now, at last, being built on rather than dug out.
The developer is GrowIn Group, founded in 2024 by Jorge Saivay, who owns the Miami Gardens general contractor Saivay Construction, and Luis Ochoa, an industrial engineer. EDEN is one of the firm’s first two ground-up projects, filed with Miami-Dade County in June 2025 alongside a near-twin three blocks away: LEV at Aventura, 2520 NE 191st Street, also ten stories, also 32 residences, also by Gaviria Architects, which broke ground in July 2026. GrowIn paid $1.69 million for EDEN’s 10,294-square-foot site.
Buyers should read that history in both directions. Saivay Construction building a Saivay-owned development is genuine vertical integration — the contractor and the developer answer to the same person, which is usually good for schedule and cost control. It is also a first-time condominium sponsor with no delivered building to point to, and two projects under construction within three blocks of each other. Both facts are true, and both belong in the same paragraph.
The Building & Architecture
Ten stories, roughly 110 feet, on a quarter-acre. Residences begin on the fourth level; the first three hold the lobby, parking, and the lower amenity deck, with 60 parking spaces recorded in the county filings — close to two per home, which is more generous than most boutique buildings of this size manage.
Gaviria Architects’ facade does two things at once. Horizontal wood-slat screens and rounded balcony returns soften what is, structurally, a small rectangular tower on a residential street, and a planted green wall runs up the western elevation, which faces the neighbors’ backyards rather than the buyers.
It is a courteous piece of design in a neighborhood of one-story houses, and courtesy in massing is not something Miami’s condo market spends much on. Every residence gets floor-to-ceiling impact glass and a private terrace; interiors are specified with Italian cabinetry, quartz countertops, large-format porcelain tile, walk-in closets with built-in storage, and in-unit washer and dryer.
Select terraces are reported to carry private plunge pools — confirm which plans at the sales gallery, as this was announced at groundbreaking rather than documented in the floor plan set.
Two design decisions tell you who the building is actually for: the elevators are Shabbat-programmed, and a prayer room has been described for at least one of GrowIn’s two buildings. The developer has not publicly confirmed interior design credits; one industry tracker lists García Milla-León alongside Gaviria Architects, and we will update this page when the developer confirms.
Residences & Pricing
Thirty-two homes over seven residential floors. Levels 4 through 8 each hold six flats; levels 9 and 10 are given over to two duplex penthouses. Interiors run from 711 to 1,097 square feet in the flats, and the duplexes total 1,964 and 2,067 square feet across their two levels. Anyone shopping the wider field of boutique condos for sale in Aventura should note how narrow that band is before deciding to buy here: this is a building of two-bedroom homes, with one single-bedroom plan and two penthouses at the ends.
| Type | Plans | Interior sq. ft. | Price from |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Bed / 1 Bath | 401 | 884 | Upon request |
| 2 Bed / 1 Bath | 503, 603, 703, 803 | 711 | from $570,000 |
| 2 Bed / 2 Bath — compact | 405, 406, 506, 606, 706, 806 | 883–900 | Upon request |
| 2 Bed / 2 Bath — mid | 402, 403, 404, 504, 604, 704, 804 | 932–978 | Upon request |
| 2 Bed / 2 Bath — large | 501, 502, 505, 601, 602, 605, 701, 702, 705, 801, 802, 805 | 1,072–1,097 | Upon request |
| 4 Bed / 3 Bath duplex penthouse | 901, 902 | 1,964 and 2,067 (two levels) | Upon request |
Please note: Under the Miami-Dade County program that allowed GrowIn to construct a building of this size on a lot of this size, approximately one-quarter of the apartments — about eight out of 32 — are designated as worker housing and are available only to buyers whose income falls within the county’s established income ranges, which typically range from 60% to 140% of the area’s median income.
Miami-Dade’s annual AMI is $87,200 according to the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. Which specific units carry the restriction, and what it means for resale, are the first questions to ask the developer.
The larger two-bedroom plans on the 01, 02, and 05 stacks are the ones to watch: at 1,072 to 1,097 square feet with a full-width balcony off the living room, they are the closest thing here to a primary residence rather than a pied-à-terre. The duplexes are the only four-bedroom product in the building and the only homes with a private internal stair, a family room, and a studio on the upper level.
One honest note on plan selection: Residences 405 and 406 open directly onto the fourth-level pool deck — for a family with young children that is a feature. For anyone who values a quiet Sunday morning, it is not.
Amenities
Thirty-two households sharing an amenity floor is a fundamentally different proposition from three hundred sharing one. Nothing here is the largest of its kind in Miami-Dade; the point is that on a Saturday in March you will not be queuing for a lounger.
Rooftop: Resort-style pool and Jacuzzi with panoramic seating; a bougainvillea-covered pergola with grilling stations and family-scale dining; an indoor/outdoor movie lounge connected to the grill terrace.
Wellness: Fitness and wellness studio with cardio, resistance, and floor-work equipment; a spa suite with two saunas, private massage rooms, and a relaxation room with massage loungers.
Social and family: Resident party room with a full catering kitchen, available to book for private events; children’s play area; pet-friendly park.
Building services: Smart access control and secure private entry; climate-controlled storage; Shabbat-programmed elevators; covered parking.
Location — Ojus, Not Aventura
Start with the correction because it matters legally and practically: EDEN carries the Aventura name and a Miami mailing address, but the building sits in Ojus, in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, outside the City of Aventura’s boundaries.
That affects which police department answers, which millage rate applies, and — for families — whether you are eligible for the City of Aventura’s charter schools, which give preference to city residents. Verify all three with the county and the school before you buy on any assumption about them.
What the block does have is the reason most buyers are here. Scheck Hillel Community School, a National Blue Ribbon school running from early childhood through grade 12, is one block north at 19000 NE 25th Avenue, with the Michael-Ann Russell Jewish Community Center adjoining its campus.
That single adjacency explains the Shabbat elevators, the prayer room, and the kosher-forward dining map: Asiatiko in the Aventura Esplanade for robata and sushi, La Matera for Argentinian steak in North Miami Beach, Fresko for Israeli-style breakfast and fresh juices. Bourbon Steak by Michael Mina at the JW Marriott Turnberry and Casa D’Angelo cover the non-kosher end of the same price bracket.
- Aventura Mall is about a mile and a half by car. Greynolds Park — the old quarry — is a mile and a half south on West Dixie Highway; Oleta River State Park, with its kayak launch and mountain-bike trails, is roughly three and a half miles down the same road.
- Sunny Isles Beach is about three miles east, under ten minutes outside season.
- Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International is about twelve miles north, twenty to twenty-five minutes outside peak and closer to thirty-five minutes northbound at six in the evening; Miami International is roughly twenty miles south via I-95, thirty to forty minutes depending on the hour.
- The Brightline Aventura station at 19796 West Dixie Highway is about half a mile away according to Multi-Housing News, putting Downtown Miami fifteen minutes and Fort Lauderdale fourteen minutes from the platform, per the Miami Herald’s published timings — which is the practical reason Aventura condos near the Brightline station now trade on commuter logic as much as lifestyle.
Here is what Ojus does not offer. There is no water frontage: no Intracoastal, no bay, no ocean, and no dock. The nearest water is a state park river and a set of flooded quarry lakes. It is a low-rise residential neighborhood in the middle of a building cycle — LEV three blocks away, and Ram Realty and Pinnacle’s 334-unit Aventana rising on West Dixie Highway — which means construction traffic on these streets into 2028.
And it is quiet in a way that reads as peace to some buyers and as isolation to others. If you want a bayfront balcony and a restaurant downstairs, this is the wrong building; that product exists two miles east and costs roughly double.
A Weekend on NE 25th Avenue
The weekend on this block has a shape that visitors from Brickell find unnerving on a first pass, and that residents describe as the reason they moved here.
- It begins early. By mid-afternoon the drop-off line has already run in reverse, the JCC parking lot empties, and the pace on NE 25th Avenue changes character — errands compress, the grocery run happens before three, and by sundown the street has gone still.
- The morning that follows is the neighborhood’s real signature. The sidewalks fill with families walking — not strolling, walking, with somewhere to be — and the building’s Shabbat elevators mean a resident on the eighth floor is not choosing between observance and a walk-up. The developer’s small design decisions here are not marketing: in a building where elevator programming is a purchase criterion, you can assume the buyer pool has already checked.
- Lunch, if you are not hosting, is at Aventura Mall, where Motek Café serves shakshuka and hummus in a sunlit room — and where, to the developer’s credit, the marketing material states plainly that Motek is kosher-style but not certified kosher. For a chunk of this building’s buyers, that distinction decides the meal, and it is the sort of thing usually left out of a brochure.
- The back half of the weekend is when Ojus behaves like the rest of South Florida. Greynolds Park fills with barbecue smoke and birthday parties along the old quarry rim, the lake sitting exactly where the rock came out.
- In the evening, ten minutes north, Gulfstream Park runs live thoroughbred racing under lights with restaurants and a rooftop bar attached; twenty-five minutes further, the Seminole Hard Rock does the louder version.
The honest observation is that none of that second half is walkable. Ojus is a neighborhood you live in and drive out of. The residents who love it wanted exactly that: a street where the school, the community center, and the synagogue are the three closest destinations, and everything else is a short drive you take on your own schedule.
Investment Perspective
The rental policy is the whole argument. EDEN permits monthly rentals — a thirty-day minimum with no long-term-only restriction — which places it in a narrow band of the northeast Miami-Dade market.
Compare it directly: Viceroy Residences Aventura, the Related Group and BH Group tower with 274 residences, carries a 90-day minimum, capped at 4 rentals per year, and starts around $925,000. Nexo Residences in North Miami Beach, from Fortune International Group and Blue Road, goes the other way with unrestricted nightly rentals across 254 turnkey units.
EDEN sits deliberately between them: more flexible than the branded tower, more residential than the Airbnb building, and roughly forty percent cheaper to enter than the former. For an owner who wants seasonal income without living in a de facto hotel, that middle position is the product, and it is not one the other boutique condos for sale in Aventura currently occupy.
The pricing logic follows from the same place. In Aventura’s condominium market above $1 million, post-2010 buildings sold at a median of roughly $887 per square foot over the year to June 2026, against roughly $570 for pre-2010 stock — a premium above 50% for newer, well-capitalized product, according to the David Siddons Group’s analysis of MLS data.
EDEN is priced below that segment entirely, which is the point: it is new construction bought at a price the older Turnberry-era towers trade at. The counterweight from the same analysis is that the $1 million-plus tier in Aventura is carrying roughly sixteen months of supply. Demand at EDEN’s entry price is a different market from demand at $3 million, but a buyer betting on resale into the luxury tier should know which tier is frozen.
The most unusual competitive fact in this file is that EDEN’s closest comparable at resale will be LEV, built by the same developer, on the same architect’s drawings, at the same entry price, three blocks away and delivering within months of it. That is 64 similar homes hitting one small neighborhood in one cycle — a concentration that will set the comparable set for Ojus real estate at this price point for years. It is not a reason to avoid the building; it is a reason to buy the plan you actually want rather than the one that is left.
Who This Building Is For
- Not for the buyer who wants a boat, a bay view, or a doorkeeper who has been doing the job for thirty years. Not for anyone who needs a City of Aventura address to be literally true.
- For the family whose life already runs along one block of NE 25th Avenue and who would rather own ten floors above it than commute to it.
- For the investor who wants a thirty-day rental clock in a market where ninety days is the norm. And for the buyer who understands that a 32-unit building trades scale for the thing scale cannot buy — a rooftop on a Saturday afternoon where you recognize everyone on it.
“The rock went into the roads. The name stayed put.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Is EDEN at Aventura actually in the City of Aventura?
No. The building’s parcel is in Ojus, an unincorporated area of Miami-Dade County, with a Miami mailing address in ZIP code 33180. The Aventura name reflects the surrounding market and the destinations residents use daily, not the municipal boundary. Buyers relying on city-resident benefits — municipal services, school preference, city tax treatment — should confirm their eligibility directly with Miami-Dade County.
When will EDEN be completed, and how firm is that date?
Construction began in June 2026. As with any pre-construction building, a Bogatov Realty advisor can provide the developer’s current target completion date. Pre-construction schedules in Miami-Dade routinely move one to two quarters, and this is the sponsor’s first ground-up delivery, so a buyer planning occupancy should build a buffer into financing and lease decisions. Ask for the current construction schedule and the escrow structure in writing at contract.
Can I rent out my residence, and on what terms?
Yes — the building is designed around a thirty-day minimum with no requirement to lease annually, which is the shortest permitted term among comparable new condominiums in the immediate area. Owners can run seasonal or monthly tenancies without the calendar caps that most Aventura buildings impose. As with any pre-construction purchase, the binding language is outlined in the condominium documents, which are finalized before closing.
What is the difference between the flats and the duplex penthouses?
The flats occupy floors four through eight, six to a floor, and are almost entirely two-bedroom homes with a single one-bedroom plan on the fourth level. The two duplexes span the ninth and tenth floors and are the only four-bedroom, three-bathroom homes in the building, each with an internal stair, a family room and a studio space on the upper level. The flats suit couples, downsizers and investors; the duplexes are the building’s family product.
Who is designing the interiors?
The developer has not publicly confirmed an interior design firm. Gaviria Architects is the architect of record, and one industry tracker credits a second design practice alongside them, which we have not been able to verify with the developer. What is documented is the specification: Italian cabinetry, quartz surfaces, large-format porcelain, floor-to-ceiling impact glass and spa-style bathrooms with rainfall showers.
Is EDEN a sensible buy at this price point?
The case rests on three things that can each be checked independently: new construction bought below the price band that new construction commands in the surrounding market; a rental clock shorter than what nearly every competing building allows; and a demand base — the school and community-center corridor one block away — that does not depend on tourism, interest rates or the luxury resale market. The risk sits on the other side of the ledger: a first-time sponsor, a restricted-income component in part of the unit mix, and a sibling building arriving at the same moment. An independent legal review of the prospectus is worth the fee here more than it would be for an established developer.
How does EDEN compare with the other new condominiums near Aventura?
It is smaller, cheaper to enter, and more flexible on rentals than the branded towers now selling in the City of Aventura, and more residential than the short-term-rental buildings on the Biscayne corridor. The trade-offs are scale, brand, and water views. Bogatov Realty can prepare a side-by-side comparison of pricing, rental terms, and deposit structure for the specific buildings you are weighing.
