Opus Coconut Grove

About the Project

OPUS is a six-story, ultra-boutique residential tower in Coconut Grove that distills Miami luxury to its most elemental form: just twelve residences and two penthouses, each claiming a full corner of the building and commanding unobstructed views of the neighborhood's canopy of ancient oaks. Conceived through the creative partnership of architect Kobi Karp and celebrated Brazilian designer Joao Armentano — whose portfolio spans Sao Paulo's landmark Hotel Unique and the Hotel Carmel Taiba in Ceara — the building fuses a distinctly urban-organic sensibility with the craftsmanship of high-end residential architecture. Wraparound balconies on every residence dissolve the line between interior and exterior, while 12-foot ceiling heights amplify the generosity of spaces that range from 1,905 to 2,548 interior square feet. The result is a building that feels less like a condominium and more like a private villa collection stacked within a verdant urban neighborhood.

META Development, the Miami-based firm behind OPUS, was founded on a deliberate philosophy of restraint. Chief executive Andrew Rasken describes the company's approach as "Go Boutique" — a conviction that ultra-limited projects, delivered with extraordinary attention to material and spatial quality, will consistently outperform the market both in lifestyle and investment returns. OPUS represents META's Miami debut, formed as a joint venture between Lucid Investment Group and Iron Capital, two firms with deep roots in luxury real estate. The decision to anchor the project in Coconut Grove — one of Miami's most land-constrained and design-conscious neighborhoods — reflects that philosophy directly. In a city where mega-towers dominate the conversation, OPUS is a deliberate counterargument: fewer residences, more architecture, and an ownership experience calibrated for those who have already tired of the anonymous high-rise.

Residences at OPUS are configured as three- and four-bedroom layouts, each designed for the kind of daily life that rarely requires compromise. Sub-Zero appliances anchor chef-caliber kitchens finished in porcelain tile, while floor-to-ceiling windows flood every room with natural light filtered through the surrounding tree canopy. Every unit occupies a corner position, ensuring no secondary exposures and no neighbors sharing a sightline. The two penthouses occupy the uppermost floors and are expected to command the building's top price points, reaching into the range typically reserved for full-floor residences in Miami's larger towers. With unit pricing for remaining residences starting at $3.1 million and the building already approaching 60 percent pre-sold since sales launched in 2024, OPUS has demonstrated that the boutique-luxury thesis resonates strongly with both local and Northeast buyers — a fact that prompted META Development to expand its sales representation to Serhant in late 2025 for broader national reach.

The amenity program at OPUS is compact by tower standards but rich in quality and exclusivity. A rooftop pool anchored by a bar and full outdoor kitchen provides the social hub of the building, while a spa equipped with sauna and steam rooms, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a private wine cellar, a dedicated business lounge, and a children's playroom round out the resident experience. The building operates with 24-hour concierge and valet service, and features a Klaus autonomous parking system with integrated EV charging — a practical luxury that eliminates the inconvenience of conventional garage stacking in a neighborhood where street parking is perpetually limited. Crucially, every amenity exists for the use of fourteen households, not hundreds, which means the rooftop pool and spa will never feel crowded and the lounge will never feel institutional.

Coconut Grove has long been Miami's most intellectually distinct neighborhood — a village within a city, defined by canopy-covered streets, a working marina, decades-old restaurants, and an arts community that predates the modern Miami development boom. The address at 3137 SW 27th Avenue places OPUS within easy walking distance of CocoWalk's restaurants and retail, top-rated private schools including Coconut Grove Montessori and Carrollton School of the Holy Faith, and the bayfront parks that define the neighborhood's outdoor culture. It is a location that appeals equally to families seeking a permanent Miami base and to international buyers seeking a refined pied-a-terre that offers genuine privacy without isolation from the city's energy.

The construction timeline is firmly anchored. META Development secured a $28 million construction loan from Los Angeles-based Arixa Capital in August 2025, with demolition of the prior structure commencing immediately and vertical construction following shortly thereafter. Delivery is targeted for 2027. For buyers entering now, OPUS represents one of the most compelling pre-construction opportunities in Coconut Grove: a genuinely limited supply of architecturally distinguished residences in a neighborhood where new land for development is effectively exhausted, backed by a fully capitalized construction loan and a developer with both the vision and the financial footing to deliver on its promises.
