Suburban living in the world’s butterfly capital

For the residents of Winston Park, it’s all about nature. After all, they reside in the “Butterfly Capital of the World,” Coconut Creek. Live oaks, poincianas and palms shade quiet, sidewalk-lined streets as colorful wings flutter from one yard to the next. With all this natural beauty, it makes sense that neighbors are always running into each other at the nearest park. The verdant community cultivates not only gardens and greenery but also kindness. “People smile at one another — there’s southern hospitality,” says Lia Papadopoulos, a longtime South Florida resident and Realtor with Coldwell Banker Commercial Realty. “It’s just down-to-earth people that are very nice to each other. It’s the polar opposite of Miami, and that’s why a lot of people move up here from there. They’re not just buying for a safe area; they’re buying for the community, the families, the schools and the parks.”

From Spanish eclectic to midcentury modern homes

Winston Park’s beautifully landscaped subdivisions were developed between the late 1980s and early 2000s. While some of these three- to five-bedroom residences are strong examples of Spanish eclectic architecture, others display Minimal Traditional, New Traditional and midcentury modern influence. In-ground pools and patios are common backyard fixtures. Standard features are driveways and two-car garages. Lot sizes range from less than 5,000 square feet to around a quarter-acre. Listings start at $455,000 and max out just under $800,000. A smattering of condos and townhouses can be found on the community’s outskirts for between $200,000 and the high $400,000s. HOAs are mandatory across all of Winston Park. Fees vary from subdivision to subdivision depending on amenities and whether the community is gated.

The Butterfly Festival

The neighborhood has front-row seats to the city’s Butterfly Festival. This free event has been held annually for over a dozen years at Sabal Pines Park. Thousands of residents and tourists head to the day-long festival to enjoy a flurry of activities. Much of the festival adheres to the titular theme with bug-themed carnival rides, colorful butterfly costumes and insect-inspired face paint, but so much more uplifts local businesses and programs, from local food vendors and student dance performances to a business expo and police department K-9 demonstrations. The night caps with fireworks high in the sky, shining down on thousands of smiling faces.

Butterfly World

Coconut Creek has the moniker “Butterfly Capital of the World” because it’s home to Butterfly World, the world’s largest butterfly aviary. Home to about 20,000 winged beauties, it’s the first facility of its kind in the Western Hemisphere. Winston Park residents enjoy proximity to this rare find, and so do their family and friends. “Back when I lived in Minnesota, I’d bring the kids down to see their grandmother in Winston Park every year,” says Mitchel Wachman, a longtime South Florida resident and the founder of Flamingo Green Realty. “They loved going to see Grandma. There’s just so much to do with family down there. The beach is nearby, there are plenty of parks, and then there’s Butterfly World. I took them there every time, and they just loved it. Did you know it’s good luck if a butterfly lands on you at Butterfly World?”

Winston Park and Nature Trail

“There’s at least one park everywhere you go,” Papadopoulos says. Some subdivisions have their own clubhouses and pocket parks, but the central recreational hub is Winston Park and Nature Trail. The park’s north side has athletic courts, a playground and, of course, a butterfly garden. On the south side, a boardwalk juts through protected woodlands of towering cypress trees and giant ferns.
