Redefining Attainable Luxury in Miami by YAKOL Capital
In a bold move to redefine urban living, YAKOL Capital is teaming up with acclaimed Japanese architect Shigeru Ban to bring an innovative “attainable” condo development to Miami-Dade County. Aptly named House, this 320-unit project aims to strike a balance between luxury and accessibility, with residences priced at approximately $1,100 per square foot. The smallest units will start in the low $300,000s, making this project an attractive opportunity for first-time buyers, investors, and those seeking high-quality living spaces at competitive prices.
Construction for House is set to begin in 2026, and the development offers a significant incentive for international investors. Through the EB-5 visa program, investors can secure a pathway to U.S. residency while supporting a transformative project in a burgeoning market.
House’s strategic focus goes beyond just real estate. By prioritizing sustainability and well-being, the development is set to feature a “biophilic” design that fosters a deep connection between residents and nature. This design philosophy aligns seamlessly with Shigeru Ban’s reputation for creating structures that harmonize with the environment.
House’s biophilic design will incorporate elements like natural light, green spaces, and sustainable materials to enhance the living experience. By embracing this approach, YAKOL Capital is not only investing in the aesthetics of the building but also in the mental and physical well-being of its future residents.
The site for House, located at 237 N.E. 54th Street, Miami, FL, 33137, spans 1.16 acres and was acquired in 2023 by Toussaint Ateliers Residences for $6.57 million. Currently occupied by a low-rise, multi-family dwelling built in 1965, the property’s redevelopment will transform it into a landmark in Miami-Dade County.
The site’s T5-O zoning designation and its position in a Qualified Opportunity Zone offer additional financial incentives for investors and developers. Google Earth renderings highlight the property’s potential to become a thriving residential hub, perfectly aligned with the neighborhood’s growth trajectory.
House is just one of YAKOL Capital’s ambitious ventures in South Florida. The developer is also planning a mixed-use project featuring 700,000 square feet of new construction, blending residences with ground-floor retail. Collaborating with Netherlands-based architectural firm MVRDV, YAKOL Capital continues to push the boundaries of innovative, community-focused design.
House is poised to redefine attainable luxury in Miami-Dade County. With its biophilic design, sustainable approach, and strategic location, it represents a forward-thinking model for urban living. Coupled with its potential to attract global investors through the EB-5 visa program, this project highlights YAKOL Capital’s commitment to creating transformative spaces that benefit both residents and the community at large.
