Suburban Neighborhood in Miramar, Florida
Broward County 33027, 33029
Just a few miles from the eastern edge of The Everglades and 25 miles from the beach, it’s not a lengthy journey to find waterfront property. It’s almost like being in the French Riviera. The comparison led to the neighborhood being called Riviera Isles, which is close to the community of Miramar and 26 miles northwest of downtown Miami. Homes in Riviera Isles are close to either the 225-acre Lake Riviera or the 375-acre Lake Sunset Falls.
Off Bass Creek Road, just west of Interstate 75, is the gated entrance into Riviera Isles, consisting of over 1,300 homes surrounding Lake Riviera. The Riviera Isles Club House is the common area for recreation. “It’s a resort-style clubhouse with amenities like tennis courts, equipped gym and a jacuzzi,” says Chris Tello, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Partners Southwest with over 25 years of experience specializing in selling gated communities. “The homes here are strictly Mediterranean-style. You’re not going to find the typical modern contemporary here.” The price ranges from nearly $700,000 to $1.4 million, with the smallest homes around 2,300 square feet. Sunset Falls has almost 500 homes with a clubhouse with similar amenities. “The homes are all well-built and structurally sound with a foundation of concrete block,” Tello says. “The floors are built with a Hambro-like construction, which means that in multi-floor houses, you can’t hear any evidence of anybody on the upper level.” Monthly fees for use of the amenities range from $200 to $400.
Three high-performing public schools in the Broward County Public School system are close to kids living in Riviera Isles. Two of them are in the neighborhood, including Glades Middle School, getting a B-plus on Niche. This school's students can participate in the Cambridge program, which stresses reading, writing, speaking, and listening and provides up to six high school credits. Everglades High School has an A-minus overall Niche grade and is within the Riviera Isles neighborhood. The football team's home field is behind the school, and periodic cheers may be heard on football Friday nights. Dolphin Bay Elementary School is a short bus ride away and gets a B-plus Niche grade.
There are plenty of recreation options inside and surrounding both clubhouses in the housing developments. For recreation outside the community, the Miramar Regional Park has a large amphitheater with a capacity of nearly 4,000, with most of the seating under a large canopy. The space is used for concerts as well as food and wine festivals. The roughly 200-acre facility has multiple playgrounds, an aquatics complex, many athletic fields and a dog park. The Francis S. Taylor Wildlife Management Area is 13 miles to the west and is at the eastern fringes of the Everglades region. The lack of lighting in the marshy area makes it ideal for night stargazing.
It’s a short drive north to reach Miramar Parkway and experience the shopping choices, which become more numerous closer to I-75. Winn-Dixie is near Miramar Regional Park in a small shopping area with a Target. The Fountains of Miramar Shopping Center features The Home Depot, Marshalls, and HomeGoods. Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza & Wings features a variety of pizza ingredient combinations, or you can create your own.
Getting around within communities is made easier with the presence of sidewalks. Any exploration outside of the gated communities will require a car. The nearest Broward County Transit bus line is on Miramar Parkway. Getting to major airports will be at least a half-hour drive. Thirty-two minutes to Miami International Airport and 39 minutes to Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport. It’s between 15 and 20 miles to the Opa-locka or Hollywood Tri-Rail commuter train station.
