Arbor Coconut Grove: Pre-Construction Buyer's Guide (2026)

Arbor Coconut Grove is a five-story, 45-residence boutique condominium at 3034 Oak Avenue, on a residential street one block behind CocoWalk in Miami's oldest neighborhood. The project is developed by the Kodsi family through Ark Capital Group -- founded by the late Isaac Kodsi -- with architecture by Behar Font & Partners and interiors by Samuel Amoia, the AD100-listed designer.

Arbor achieved Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) in March 2026 with resident move-ins in early spring 2026. Sales surpassed 70 percent by the TCO milestone, with remaining inventory marketed from around $1.7 million. The project's history is a case study in South Florida development resilience: originally stalled and pulled out of foreclosure by Isaac Kodsi in 2023, then completed by his daughter Camilla and brother Dan Kodsi following Isaac's unexpected death in August 2025.

Arbor's 45 residences include two- to four-bedroom-plus-den layouts, two-story lofts, townhomes with private street-level entries and gardens, and rooftop-terrace penthouses. Floor plans run from roughly 1,466 to 3,185 square feet.

The Quick Take

Where is Arbor Coconut Grove?

3034 Oak Avenue is in Central Coconut Grove, one block behind CocoWalk and inside the walkable core of the village district. Coconut Grove is Miami's oldest neighborhood -- founded in 1873 by Bahamian and English settlers, predating the City of Miami by 23 years. The Grove has always had a bayfront, sailing, and canopy-tree character that no other Miami neighborhood matches, and current land-use protections have kept its low-rise, tree-canopied streetscape mostly intact.

Within a short walk of the building:

• CocoWalk -- the open-air retail and dining center at Grand and Virginia, renovated in 2020 with a CMX luxury cinema and expanded restaurant program
• Shoppes at Mayfair
• Greenstreet Cafe, Ariete, and the local restaurant cluster on Commodore Plaza
• Peacock Park -- 9+ acres of open lawn, playground, and community events
• Kennedy Park -- Biscayne Bay green space with a dog park
• Regatta Park -- Dinner Key Marina waterfront with sailing regattas and small beach
• Coconut Grove Sailing Club -- the community sailing club founded in 1946
• Dinner Key Marina and the Grove Bay marinas along Pan American Drive

Slightly further:

• Vizcaya Museum and Gardens -- the Italian Renaissance villa completed in 1923, ~1 mile north on South Bayshore Drive
• Ransom Everglades, Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart, and Gulliver Preparatory -- the Grove's top private school cluster
• Coconut Grove Metrorail station -- direct rail to Brickell and Downtown Miami
• Miami International Airport -- 15-20 minutes by car
• Brickell -- ~10 minutes
• Downtown Miami -- ~10 minutes

Who's Behind Arbor Coconut Grove?

The developer is the Kodsi family, operating through Ark Capital Group, a Pembroke Pines-based real estate investment firm that specializes in debt and equity for projects under $50 million.

Isaac Kodsi -- a South Florida real estate attorney and Ark Capital founder -- acquired the stalled Arbor project out of foreclosure in 2023. At the point of acquisition the building had already been more than 50 percent sold under a prior developer. Kodsi returned the original buyers' deposits and paid the contractors and subcontractors who had been working on the building, an unusual move that preserved trust in a troubled deal.

Kodsi died unexpectedly in August 2025 at age 59. His daughter Camilla Kodsi -- then in her twenties -- and his brother Dan Kodsi stepped in to complete the project. Arbor received its TCO in March 2026.

Dan Kodsi is a longtime Miami developer whose past projects include Paramount Miami Worldcenter and other large South Florida towers, and his involvement anchored the Arbor completion team.

Architecture and Design

Behar Font & Partners is the architect. The Coral Gables-headquartered firm has more than 35 years of Miami residential experience. Behar Font's boutique portfolio includes:

• 301 Madeira in Coral Gables -- nine-story boutique building
• Cassia Coral Gables -- 174 turnkey furnished residences
• Okan Tower -- the tulip-inspired Downtown Miami tower

The Arbor exterior is a five-story, low-slung volume detailed for the Grove's canopy scale. Vertical gardens, deep landscape frames, and layered facade materials keep the building intentionally quiet against the surrounding street.

Samuel Amoia -- named by Vogue as one of the young interior designers to watch and included in the AD100 -- handles the interior architecture. Amoia's material work leans on natural stones, refined plasters, and quiet wood tones, all pitched to reference the surrounding Grove tree canopy rather than downtown Miami polish.

Residences at Arbor

Verified spec:

• 45 residences across 5 stories
• Two- to four-bedroom-plus-den layouts
• Two-story lofts, townhomes with private street-level entries and gardens, and rooftop-terrace penthouses
• ~1,466 to 3,185 square feet interior
• 10-foot ceilings; up to 20-foot ceilings in select townhome volumes
• Floor-to-ceiling impact glass
• Wide-plank porcelain wood-grain flooring
• Custom Italian cabinetry
• Freestanding soaking tubs in primary bathrooms
• Every home includes a versatile den designed for a home office, playroom, or studio
• Chef-style kitchens with premium appliance packages

Every unit has private outdoor space, and the townhome tier gives the building a genuine ground-floor townhome-with-garden option that is rare in new Miami boutique condo product.

Developer Track Record

Ark Capital Group is smaller and more specialized than the international brands active in Miami pre-construction. Its niche is under-$50M projects where the sponsor takes both debt and equity positions, and Arbor is the flagship completion.

Isaac Kodsi's legal background as a real estate attorney was central to how the Arbor deal was structured. His decision to honor the earlier buyers' deposits at acquisition rather than treating the foreclosure as a clean slate is uncommon in the sector.

Dan Kodsi's development history includes larger Miami-Dade projects, and his role in the completion team gave Arbor senior-developer supervision through the final construction and TCO phase.

Camilla Kodsi's step into the CEO role at 27 after her father's death has been profiled in trade publications including CoStar and Coconut Grove Magazine. Her Grove community involvement continues her father's approach.

The Amenity Program

Arbor's amenities are boutique-scale, matched to a five-story, 45-residence building:

Outdoor

• Courtyard pool deck with lush landscape and chaise lounges
• Cabanas and grilling stations
• Firepit
• Rooftop social terrace
• Outdoor yoga and meditation lawn

Wellness and social

• Fitness center for strength and yoga training
• Co-working lounge for focused productivity
• Social lounge

Service and mobility

• 24-hour concierge and valet
• Secure bicycle storage with community share program
• EV charging stations
• Pet washing station

The amenity program is intentionally right-sized rather than oversized: 45 residents is enough to fund a real concierge and pool program, not enough to require a resort-scale amenity stack.

How Arbor Compares to Other Coconut Grove Trophy Condos

Coconut Grove's new-construction condo market is one of the tightest in Miami-Dade. Buyer demand is anchored by school proximity (Ransom Everglades, Carrollton, Gulliver), sailing culture, and the neighborhood's low-density zoning. Arbor sits in the boutique tier:

Distinctions:

• Scale. At 45 residences, Arbor is one of the smallest new-construction deliveries in the Grove. Vita and Park Grove are larger; Mr. C is a taller high-rise.
• Product mix. Arbor is the only building in the current pipeline that ships townhomes with private street entries and gardens alongside condo floor plans in the same address.
• Delivered. As of mid-2026 Arbor is TCO'd. Vita is still absorbing pre-sales; Four Seasons and The Well are earlier in their construction cycles.
• Family-oriented layouts. Two- to four-bedroom-plus-den layouts and 20-foot townhome volumes are aimed squarely at Grove-anchored families rather than pied-a-terre buyers.

The Neighborhood

Coconut Grove is Miami's oldest neighborhood and its most tree-canopied. Bahamian and English settlers arrived in 1873; the surrounding hardwood hammock forest is still visible in the mature oaks and mahoganies that shade every residential street.

Retail and dining

• CocoWalk -- reopened in 2020 after full renovation, anchored by a CMX luxury cinema
• Shoppes at Mayfair
• Greenstreet Cafe on Commodore Plaza
• Ariete -- Michael Beltran's tasting-menu restaurant
• Sadelle's Miami -- the Grove outpost of Major Food Group's New York brunch spot
• Bianco Gelato, Panther Coffee, Le Bouchon du Grove

Parks and water

• Peacock Park -- social center of the neighborhood
• Kennedy Park and Regatta Park
• Coconut Grove Sailing Club and Dinner Key Marina
• Grove Bay marinas along Pan American Drive

Culture

• Vizcaya Museum and Gardens -- Renaissance villa completed in 1923
• Barnacle Historic State Park -- oldest home in Miami-Dade
• Coconut Grove Playhouse (under restoration)

Schools

• Ransom Everglades (co-ed, grades 6-12)
• Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart (all-girls, K-12)
• Gulliver Preparatory
• George Washington Carver Elementary/Middle

Transit

• Coconut Grove Metrorail station -- direct rail to Brickell and Downtown
• Miami International Airport -- 15-20 minutes
• Brickell and Downtown Miami -- ~10 minutes each

Buyer Fit

Arbor Coconut Grove fits:

• Grove-anchored families targeting Ransom Everglades, Carrollton, or Gulliver
• Buyers who want townhome-with-garden product rather than a stacked-condo floor plan
• Owners downsizing from larger single-family Grove homes but wanting to stay in the neighborhood
• Second-home buyers who want a walkable Grove address rather than a beach or bay high-rise
• Buyers who value boutique building scale -- 45 units, low-rise, tree-canopied

Probably not a fit:

• Short-term-rental investors (the building is oriented toward long-term ownership)
• Waterfront-only buyers -- Arbor is a walk-to-the-marinas building, not a bayfront tower
• Buyers who want high-rise views (Arbor is five stories in a tree canopy)
