Highway accessible
Sixteen miles north of Miami is the City of Miami Gardens, primarily known as the home of Hard Rock Stadium, where the NFL’s Miami Dolphins and college football’s Miami Hurricanes play. Just to the north of the stadium is the Lake Lucerne neighborhood. “People love the neighborhood's location for that, as well as the access to major highways,” says Eddie Blanco, a broker with Stratwell LLC who has been selling in the Miami area for 25 years. “The Golden Glades Interchange is five miles south, and that’s the intersection of six major highways that allow access to locations in Broward and Miami-Dade counties.” The neighborhood is also in the shadow of a large casino.

Some renovations among the collection of houses
For the most part, Lake Lucerne's single-family homes were built in the 1960s and are ranch-style houses with some front yards that are fenced in. Some homes have been completely renovated as of about 20 years ago. Other styles of homes include Mediterranean-influenced bungalows. Homes generally have three to four bedrooms and between 1,000 and 1,500 square feet of living space. A collection of Spanish-style townhouses and condominiums was built in the 1970s. Single-family homes list between $400,000 and $550,000, and condos and townhouses range from $250,000 to $400,000. “The trend is that many buyers today want the convenience of living close to major highways while enjoying a lower cost of living,” Blanco says. About 70% of the people in Lake Lucerne rent their homes.

Recently renovated parks
In 2022, improvements were made to Bennett Lifter Park, which included a facelift for the basketball court, picnic pavilion, playground and recreation building. The park is also located near a large lake surrounded by apartment buildings. The Florida heat can be intense throughout the year, and that’s why there’s a splash pad at Buccaneer Park. That space got a makeover in 2018 to feature a recreation building, walking trail and tennis courts.
Tennis courts, walking paths, and picnic areas are additional features found in Buccaneer Park.
Kids love the Buccaneer Park's splash pad all within a short drive from the Lake Lucerne region.
