A rare opportunity in the heart of Westchester: a move-in-ready home on an expansive 13,100-square-foot RU-2 lot with exceptional long-term potential. This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home combines major recent upgrades with the space and flexibility increasingly difficult to find in the neighborhood. The property features impact windows and doors, a new roof, AC system and completely redone ductwork from 2021, plus a 2022 water heater. A large den offers valuable space that can serve as a home office, guest room, gym or additional living area, and the home also includes a convenient indoor laundry room. The spacious Florida room, updated in 2022 with a beautiful tongue-and-groove ceiling, extends the living space and opens to an oversized backyard designed to be enjoyed. Mature fruit trees, a koi pond, storage shed and abundant outdoor space create a private setting with room to entertain, garden or simply enjoy one of the largest residential lots in the area. What truly sets this property apart is its versatility. Enjoy it today as a comfortable, move-in-ready Westchester home while also benefiting from the possibilities offered by the oversized RU-2 lot. The zoning may allow for a duplex on the existing property or the potential subdivision into two lots with additional residential development, subject to Miami-Dade County approval and applicable zoning requirements. Conveniently located near major highways, shopping, dining, schools and Miami International Airport.
