701 NW 9th Ave, Miami FL 33136

Rare opportunity to custom build on land rich in local history. The property was once owned by Frank B Stoneman who was the first editor-in-chief of the Miami Herald & father of Marjory Stomeman Douglas. Douglas lived in the house from 1920-1923 & wrote a column for the Miami Herald. In her words ‘my father’s new house was airy & comfortable & pleasant with live oaks. From my corner room I could look out & see the boats going down the Miami River.’ The wooden 2 story house is now gone but what remains are the oaks & a newly placed Roman wall. The large lot has a beautiful gentle curve that fronts NW North River Dr. Located in the central leafy downtown neighborhood of Spring Garden. Health District is minuted away & within close proximity to Brickell, Miami Beach & MIA.
