Homes with historical designs
Most properties in Coral Gate are waterfront by nature due to the canals and bodies of water in the backyards, and it was primarily founded in the 1960s; the Spanish ties of the region mean stucco exteriors and low-angled roofs are prominent. Largely residential, it’s close to major thoroughfares; there’s a high hurricane risk, but an emphasis on safety is crucial to the area. “There’s a ton of condos and townhouses,” Penn says. “There’s also villas and single-family homes. “The starting price is probably in the $150,000 range, going up to about $700,000. Most of the single-family homes are ranch styles, but a couple communities have multi-levels as well.”

Local establishments for dining and craft beer
“The downtown area is called the Promenade and it has restaurants, dining, movie theaters, clothing stores and all of that,” Penn says. “La Bamba Mexican Restaurant, a really good Mexican place that’s pretty famous, is right there. Bonefish Mac’s has a really good vibe there, kind of a sports bar atmosphere, and they serve seafood, burgers and wings. It’s a cool little restaurant.” Firegrills is another of the most popular restaurants within Coral Gate’s borders, showcasing the “art of fire and flavor” within its doors. Fully-furnished taproom atmospheres can be found at Pompano Beach Brewing Company and Black Flamingo Brewing Company.
