When you think of Miami Beach, high class living, sandy beaches and crystal clear waters likely come to mind. Now picture all of those things, but on a small, isolated island about three miles off the coast of Miami Beach — that’s Fisher Island.
The island was formed in the early 1900s as part of a dredging and land reclamation project in areas in and around Miami Beach. The total size of the island is less than a half square mile. There is only about 200 Fisher Island properties. And the population is less than 200. But Fisher Island real estate is luxury living, so much so that the island has the highest per capita income anywhere in the United States.
Just how isolated is that Fisher Island condo you may be interested in? Consider that no roadways are connected to the island — the only way of access is by boat or ferry. While amenities outside of the beach and plenty of sunshine are limited on the secluded island, there is a private school for pre-Kindergarten through fifth grade students.
Dubbed “America’s most exclusive zip code,” Fisher Island condos range into the millions of dollars, some with price points as high as $12 million. For non-residents, the island is also a popular luxury tourist attraction and features several beach clubs.
