Stand Out Home In Cocoplum, Coral Gables
January 23rd, 2012 Categories:Coral Gables Gated Communities, Coral Gables Waterfront Homes
On Sunday morning I took some clients out to see waterfront property in Cocoplum. One home that really stood out from the rest was 330 Dolias Court. Perfectly renovated in 2009, the home offers a slight contemporary feel with very open and bright spaces. It also sits on a very wide part of the canal which gives you lots of privacy. For those who have a large boat, Cocoplum has the largest inventory of waterfront homes with no bridges to the Bay. To view more photos and information of 330 Dolias click here. The list price is $4,745,000 by Shelton and Stewart.
When listing or buying a home it is essential to have a local Realtor who knows the numbers, tracks the market and can value a home correctly. If you are interested in buying or selling I would be happy to meet with you for a no pressure consultation. Please feel free to contact me directly at 305-342-1623 or send me a note here.

High Turnover Between 72nd and Hardee Road
January 11th, 2012 Categories:Coral Gables Real Estate, Coral Gables Waterfront Homes
The area of Coral Gables that is located south of Hardee Road and north of 72nd Street experienced quite a bit of turnover in 2011. There were 30 homes sold (see red pins on map below) with the average sale coming in at $1,000,000. It is a prime location due to its proximity to South Miami as well as downtown Coral Gables and Coconut Grove. I also know buyers who really like this neighborhood because it is just steps away from the highly desirable Sunset Elementary School.
There are approximately 22 homes for sale in this neighborhood with prices ranging from $589,000 all the way up to $9,975,000. It is possible to get a canalfront home with Bay access here for under $2,000,000. Click to scroll through homes for sale south of Hardee Road and north of 72nd.

Sunrise Harbour In Coral Gables – Unknown Pocket Of Luxury Homes
December 29th, 2011 Categories:Coral Gables Waterfront Homes
Many people aren’t familiar with the waterfront area of Coral Gables known as Sunrise Harbour. It is located east of US1 and north of Cocoplum. As you can see, the properties sit on little “fingers” of land that extend into the Gables Waterway allowing for quick access to Biscayne Bay. This year there have been 7 $2,000,000+ properties sold in Sunrise Harbour. The homes traded for a median of $2,200,000 or $503.00 per square foot. In my opinion, the area is slightly less pretentious than some of the other waterfront communities in Coral Gables.

Waterfront homes make up a significant part of the Coral Gables real estate market. There have been 50 waterfront sales so far this year and there are currently 90 on the market. They have sold on average for $449.00 per square foot but you really have to take each home’s unique waterfront location into consideration when placing a value on an individual property.

Cocoplum Real Estate Update: 2 Waterfront Sales Under $2,500,000
September 26th, 2011 Categories:Coral Gables Gated Communities, Coral Gables Waterfront Homes
Prior to this summer there had not been a single recorded waterfront sale in Cocoplum under $2,500,000. However in June of this year the canal-front home located at 194 Caoba Court closed for $2,225,000 and just this past week the canal-front home located at 184 Paloma Drive closed for $2,300,000. You do have to take into consideration the condition, year and size of these properties but even if you account for those things a sale under $2,500,000 for a waterfront home in Cocoplum is pretty remarkable.
This is just more evidence that buyers are getting some great deals on waterfront properties . In 2010 there were 27 waterfront homes sold under $2,500,000 in Coral Gables and this year there have already been 30 sold (plus 5 that are pending).
