A landmark two-level penthouse with private 40’ rooftop pool in the nearly sold-out waterfront development by renowned Miami developer Ugo Colombo of CMC Group has hit the market for $23.5 million listed with Nelson Gonzalez, Senior Vice President and top-producer with over $4 billion in career sales at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices (BHHS) EWM Realty.
SOLE PH‑1 at Vita at Grove Isle (5 Grove Isle Dr., Coconut Grove, Fla.) is offered fully furnished by Artefacto – the internationally acclaimed interior design brand. The residence spans nearly 13,000 square feet of total living space, including 7,000 square feet of interiors and 5,600 square feet of outdoor spaces. Atop it all sits a striking, private 40-foot rooftop pool with uninterrupted vistas of Biscayne Bay and the downtown Miami skyline. With an asking price of $23.5 million, SOLE PH‑1 is the largest and most expansive residence within the boutique island development.
“This penthouse stands apart in Coconut Grove,” said Gonzalez. “It is rare to find a condo with such abundance of private amenities, typically found only in a single-family home. In addition to the private amenities, residents get to enjoy additional amenities and luxuries offered by Vita at Grove Isle, and another layer of security offered by private-island living. For buyers seeking privacy, outdoor living with sweeping views, and immediate access to Miami’s cultural and social hubs, SOLE PH‑1 is truly a standout opportunity.”
The four-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath residence is accessed via a private elevator that opens into a grand foyer, leading to expansive living areas defined by 11-foot ceilings and walls of glass that fully retract to connect the interiors with 13-foot-deep waterfront terraces. Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home features finely appointed Artefacto interiors and premium finishes throughout, including a Molteni kitchen with Miele appliances, frameless Barausse doors, and an integrated Crestron smart home system with Lutron HomeWorks lighting.
The Bayfront primary suite has a spa-inspired, book-matched marble bath and oversized double closets, while three additional guest bedrooms with en-suite baths capture serene water views from the opposite side of the residence. A sculptural spiral staircase ascends to the penthouse’s signature, 97-foot-long rooftop terrace – an elevated entertainment environment featuring the 40-foot pool, a summer kitchen, and multiple lounge areas framed by waterfront panoramas.
“From the outset, Vita at Grove Isle was designed to highlight Coconut Grove’s natural beauty and elegant lifestyle,” said Ugo Colombo, Founder and CEO of CMC Group and developer of Vita. “SOLE PH‑1 elevates that vision, pairing grand-scale indoor-outdoor living with meticulous craftsmanship and a rooftop environment that embraces the surrounding water and skyline.”
The offering arrives as Vita continues to see strong closing momentum following its completion in late 2025. The seven-story, 65-residence building is now nearing sellout, having recently reported nearly $400 million in closings in under 60 days. Average residence prices stand at approximately $8.5 million, with a notable share surpassing $10 million. At the top of the market, Vita has recorded multiple penthouse transactions above $15 million, including several exceeding $20 million, underscoring the project’s position within South Florida’s rapidly expanding super-prime residential landscape.
“Miami – and Coconut Grove, in particular – is firmly on the radar of ultra-high-net-worth buyers,” Gonzalez added. “Today’s top buyers want more than just turnkey interiors or smart technology…they’re looking for outdoor living and waterfront experiences that feel effortless and extraordinary. SOLE PH‑1 delivers on all fronts, combining scale, privacy, and panoramic vistas in a market where homes like this are increasingly hard to find.”
Set on a 20-acre private island, Vita at Grove Isle grants residents exclusive access to the Grove Isle Racquet & Yacht Club, which features eight Har-Tru tennis courts, pickleball and padel courts, along with a bayfront pool and poolside bar. The development will soon welcome La Sponda, an Italian waterfront restaurant opening this summer with views of Biscayne Bay. Additional amenities include private resident event spaces, a spa, fitness center, and yoga studio.
With only a limited collection of residences remaining, SOLE PH-1 represents a singular opportunity to acquire one of the largest and most distinctive penthouses currently available in Coconut Grove – within a development that has quickly emerged as one of the neighborhood’s most sought-after waterfront addresses.
