Top Five Homes In Coconut Grove

As beautiful as Coral Gables is, much of the real estate emphasis is placed on condominium living.  Because it is such a “resort-style” area, Coral Gables attracts many vacation home owners and investors.  But, in a part of the city lies one of the most elite areas in all of Miami-Dade County – we are talking about Coconut Grove.
 
There is a lot of history behind Coconut Grove as it is the oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood of Miami in all of Miami-Dade County.  Many notable professional athletes and other celebrities make their homes or have owned homes in the exclusive communities within Coconut Grove because of the atmosphere and the fact that while it is as luxurious and affluent as many affluent areas of the city of Miami, it is kind off the beaten path and offers privacy and a quieter lifestyle.

Coconut Grove real estate reflects this atmosphere and lifestyle with elegant and beautiful estates in some of the most elite neighborhoods in all of Miami-Dade County.  While the homes are architecturally different, their common attributes are the exclusivity of the neighborhoods, the privacy, and the absolute magnificence of the homes.  To highlight this level of real estate, following are the top five single family homes on the market in Coconut Grove. 

Hughes Cove is, without a doubt, one of Florida’s most elite communities.  Its draw for decadent living is obvious in the size and detail of each home in the small neighborhood.  With such a small number of homes set on multiple lots, the neighborhood features its own park, private dock and tennis courts secured with a gated entry and perimeter security wall.

Built in 2003, this estate home exudes perfection.  The contemporary Italian-style architecture of the home showcases very unique finishes and details.  Situated on three lots, it offers five bedrooms, SMART home capabilities and the added extra of a rooftop haven.   Owners who enjoy entertaining will be enthralled with this home as the formal dining room accommodates 14+ with the outdoor dining area over 20.  On the Bay, the home features a gorgeous pool that overlooks the Bay and is close to the best public and private schools in the area as well as the quaint business district in Coconut Grove.

3316 Devon Court, Hughes Cove, List Price:  $12,000,000
Newly built in 2010, this home exudes privacy sitting on two walled lots and only 250’ off the Bay.  It features detailed finishes, an amazing kitchen with custom cabinetry and high-end appliances, mahogany doors, a gas fireplace, private library and an elaborate floating staircase that exposes all floors.  Along with elevator that goes to every floor, there is also a beautiful rooftop patio with cook area and unbelievable views of the Bay.  Additionally, there is a saltwater pool and deeded boat slip that is just a few steps away from the home.  No detail is left out in this magnificent work of architecture.

The Moorings is a gated community filled with large multi-million dollar estates many of which have private docks as well as the most stunning landscaping throughout the entire community.  Homes are extravagant in their appearance and amenities.  Situated near the home to the renowned CoCo Walk, The Moorings is a very relaxed community where residents buy here and stay here.  Be aware that when a home comes on the market in The Moorings, it is gobbled up quickly so it is necessary to be ready to move when this happens.  Close to top schools as well as Coconut Grove shops and dining, this is an ideal neighborhood for families and those seeking a generous amount of privacy.
