About this property

Tucked away in El Portal’s lush Sherwood Forest, the Ivy House is a charming 3BD/2BA home with timeless appeal. Renovated in 2005, this lush gem lives larger than its size with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace-accented living room, and dining living/media space that flows into a serene tropical garden through double French doors. The split bedroom layout offers privacy, with a tranquil primary suite featuring oolite stone floors and a spa-like pebble shower. Enjoy updated kitchen and baths, a 2018 roof, full hurricane-impact windows/doors, and peaceful surroundings in a non-flood zone. A rare find in one of Miami’s best-kept secrets, Sherwood Forest, a green enclave with an Old Florida feel just minutes from the MiMo District, Little River, and Biscayne Blvd’s vibrant energy.
