Cottage Grove: A New Affordable Manufactured Home Community in Miami
New Affordable Housing in Miami: Cottage Grove
RHP Properties, a company with over 30 years of expertise in managing manufactured home communities, recently announced the completion of Phase I of construction for Cottage Grove. This new community, located in southwest Miami, boasts 349 new manufactured housing sites designed for families seeking affordable living options amidst rising home prices and construction costs in the area.
Miami-Dade County faces a critical housing shortage, exacerbated by the removal of over 1,100 manufactured housing sites in the past year. The scarcity of new manufactured homes has left many residents with limited options, compelling RHP Properties to step in and address this urgent need.
A Vision for Family Living
Cottage Grove is strategically situated at the intersection of Quail Roost Drive and Krome Avenue, ensuring residents have convenient access to various amenities and attractions in Miami. The community offers modern, multi-section homes starting at an attractive price of $129,900. Each manufactured home features spacious four-bedroom layouts, open-concept designs, and well-equipped kitchens with stainless steel appliances.
The amenities at Cottage Grove are designed to cater to an active lifestyle. Residents can enjoy a beautifully maintained pool, a contemporary clubhouse, and a fitness center that includes yoga and lounge rooms. Additionally, the community boasts scenic biking and walking trails, serene gazebos, and ample green spaces, providing a perfect environment for families to thrive.
Meeting Community Needs
CEO Ross Partrich of RHP Properties expressed excitement about the new community, stating, "We are thrilled to offer 5-star amenities at affordable prices for families. This new housing supply is coming at a time when it is most needed." He emphasized that Cottage Grove represents a significant opportunity for residents to achieve homeownership in Miami-Dade at a time when prices are otherwise prohibitive, also replacing housing capacity lost to redevelopment.
Future Developments and Connectivity
A model home is set to open for tours in June, with the first homes available for purchase by mid-summer 2026. The location of Cottage Grove provides easy access to major arterial routes, linking residents to US-1 and broader Miami metro areas. Krome Avenue and Quail Roost Road connect the community to vital employment centers, enhancing the appeal for families looking for convenient travel routes.
Nearby, significant redevelopment efforts, including the transformation of Southland Mall into the Southplace City Center, will add retail, medical facilities, and residential components, further increasing the area's attractiveness. Residents will also benefit from additional infrastructure developments, including the proposed southwest extension of the Dolphin Expressway.
