The Best Miami Waterfront Homes for sale – gated Communities for Families
We consider Gables Estates and Old Cutler Bay to have some of the best waterfront homes in Miami. These homes are perfect for those who want a private neighborhood for their families. These two neighborhoods have many waterfront homes, very much gated, and offer some of the most spectacular homes. First of all, both are in Coral Gables. They are close to almost all of Miami’s top-rated private schools. Second of all, both offer homes on large lots with Gables Estates and offer homes on at least an acre lot.
The large lots at Gables Estates give that extra element of privacy and exclusivity. Casuarina Concourse, Arvida Parkway in Gables Estates, and Solano Prado in Old Cutler Bay offer homes on oceanfront lots. These homes have superb and unobstructed views over the open water.
If you do not want to be on the open water, this community offers several wide basins. The feeling that you are on a bay front lot rather than a canal front lot. Finally, these neighborhoods provide a community feel! Our team member and Gable’s expert Jorge Salazar grew up in Old Cutler Bay. He can vouch for the quality of life in both communities. The neighborhood is safe and small enough to cycle to friends and to let kids be kids. It is ideal for families who enjoy boating, BBQs, pool parties, and kids playing around freely. For boat lovers, both communities can dock yachts with a draft up to 5 ft / 6 ft, while some homes might have deeper canals. The basins make it easier to handle a large vessel, turn it and navigate your way to the open waters in less than 3 minutes.
