Aston Martin Built Residences in Downtown Miami so You Can Live Like 007 From $550k

The perfect complement to an actual Aston Martin

So you own an Aston Martin. Congratulations! A British sports car/supercar with so much power and pedigree should be on anyone’s dream car list, especially if 007 lives rent-free in your mind. We don’t have to mention the Cygnet, though. Now, what if you could live in a building that exuded the same energy as your car, though? I’m here to tell you that you’re in luck.

Living in British opulence

During F1 Miami last year, Aston Martin opened the marque’s “Aston Martin Residences Miami,” a 66-story residential building placed smack-dab in downtown Miami at 300 Biscayne Boulevard Way. Living conditions range from one to five-bedroom residences and duplexes. According to Aston Martin’s original press release, 99% of the 391 condos were already sold before construction was even finished, with more than 50 residents already owning an Aston Martin. That’s a lot of secret agents.

Aston doesn’t expect you to take care of your own business, so in addition to an exclusive superyacht marina, a private butler service will be on-call 24/7 to help residents with whatever they might need.

As for design, residents can pick between three carefully curated interior styles that Aston Martin feels best represent their brand. The Timeless collection builds on the brand’s heritage and creates a more contemporary style, the Covert collection is inspired by darker car interiors and sounds the most like a Bond-style room, while the Indulgent collection is the top-of-the line choice, using natural materials for a softer, calming palette with “bursts of theatre.”

Everything you could ever need in one building

The building was designed in collaboration with Aston Martin’s design team and world-leading architect Rodolfo Miani of Bodas Mian Anger (BMA). The overall design aesthetic was meant to represent a sail, which makes sense given its waterside setting, with some rather stunning views of the Biscayne Bay, the Miami River, and the Miami skyline. Some of the features that the automaker has distilled into its residences as callbacks to their cars include doors with bespoke Aston Martin handles, number plinths, and kestrel tan leather door tabs. The latter of which is a color often used in Aston Martin interiors.

The real fun times happen between the 52nd and 55th floors, which themselves are connected with a glass staircase of all things. There, residents will find themselves having to pick between a two-floor fitness center with views of the Atlantic Ocean, an art gallery, two movie theatres, a virtual golf simulator, a business center, a conference room, a kids’ playroom, a full-service spa, a beauty salon, and a barber shop. The 55th floor also houses an infinity pool, with its own pool deck, jacuzzis, cabanas, sky bar, lounge, an entire ballroom, private dining areas, and even a state-of-the-art chef’s kitchen. Short of having its own Whole Foods in the building, I can hardly think of a reason why you would ever have to leave your home.

Chillin like a villain, perhaps?

If your net worth is far too high to live in a regular condo, fret not, for the masterminds at Aston Martin have your needs in mind, too. The building features seven penthouses, all with their own private pools and terraces, of course, as well as the building’s crown jewel: the “Unique Triplex Penthouse.”

This one is for the real honcho, for whom a single floor in a luxury 66-story building is nowhere near enough. The Triplex Penthouse is a three-floor condominium at the top of the building, spanning a total of 27,191 square feet of living space.

Final thoughts

Living in an automaker-built skyscraper in the middle of Miami is something out of my finest fantasies. The building’s design is tremendously gorgeous and unique, as are the interiors depicted in the photos. It exudes that elegant, minimalist vibe that I’m particularly fond of, but which some may find too bland.

According to Miami Luxury Homes, there are currently 85 condos available for sale and 58 available for rent. Sale prices range from $550,000 for a studio condo to $59,000,000 for a 7-bedroom condo. If you thought an actual Aston Martin would set your checkbook on fire, these prices might do a little more.

This is merely the automaker’s foray into residential developments, too, with projects like the Sylvan Rock private residential estate located in Rhinebeck, New York, and № 001 Minami Aoyama, the first Aston Martin-designed home in Asia, currently underway.
