Well-maintained homes built around a community lake

Homes are built close together on streets truncated by a man-made lake. Front yards are small, but backyards are large enough for in-ground pools. Landscaping adds curb appeal. “It’s an older community, built mostly in the ‘90s, but, overall, you do see pride in homeownership,” says Erika Fermin , real estate agent with The Keyes Company. “It’s very well-maintained.” The single-story and multi-level homes feature elements of the Spanish Mediterranean architectural style, most notably decorative facades and terra cotta roofs. Prices range from the mid-$500,000s to about $800,000. HOA fees are reasonable, typically ranging from $120 to $197 per month. Marbella Park’s Cap Index Crime Score of 1-out-of-10 signifies a community with the lowest possible crime rate. Despite being almost 20 miles from the coast, the neighborhood does face the risk of flooding and wind damage during hurricane season. Insurance rates are likely to reflect that.

Clubhouse, lakefront walking path and pool among recreational options

The neighborhood includes a clubhouse for social gatherings and multiple recreational options. “The community itself has a walking path around the lake, a tot lot and a pool,” Fermin says, “and across the street is a park.” Country Lake Park is a neighborhood destination with a ballfield and basketball courts in a waterfront setting. Nearby Vizcaya Park offers more athletic spaces and a community center just outside of the neighborhood, while Miramar Regional Park is a short drive away. An aquatic center anchors 173 amenities-filled acres. Golfers enjoy proximity to the Country Club of Miami, an area attraction for more than 60 years with a pair of public golf courses.

Proximity to I-75, Florida’s Turnpike

Proximity to major highways allows residents to live away from the congestion but still enjoy big-city access. “You’re two to four minutes from I-75, so the neighborhood is very centrally located,” Fermin says. The neighborhood is within 30 miles of both the Miami and Fort Lauderdale international airports. Florida’s Turnpike provides convenient travel into Fort Lauderdale about 25 miles northeast. A commuter rail station is about 10 miles away at the Golden Glades Interchange, where the Turnpike, the Dolphin Expressway and Interstate 95 converge. Residents in need of public transportation can catch the bus along 186th Street.
