Residential project underway in southern Miami-Dade

Developer Luxcom began construction of the Mosaic at Venetian Parc residential community in southern Miami-Dade County.

Oscar Barbara’s firm is building 301 single-family residences and townhomes at the Southwest 176th Street and 152nd Avenue site, according to Monday’s written statement released by a project spokesperson. The community’s homes have 20 different potential floorplans and three architectural styles: Contemporary, Island Colonial and Mediterranean. Townhome prices start from the $200,000s, while single-family residences start from the $300,000s.

“Unlike much of the development of the last cycle, we are developing this land with the end user in mind, not our bottom line,” Barbara said. “By building fewer homes than we are zoned for we are able to implement additional walkways, curved streets and parks – creating a new definition of community.”

Mosaic’s biggest two-story townhomes total more than 2,400 square feet. The largest single-family homes have more than 4,000 square feet of living space. All residences include a one or two-car garage. — Eric Kalis
