Luxury living with out high-end price point

As its name suggests, Pembroke Lakes is a community built around several lakes. As such, many homes are on waterfront properties with yards filled with towering palms and tropical flowering plants, giving off a resort-like feel. And because it's a bit farther out of major cities like Miami and Fort Lauderdale, it offers a quieter atmosphere popular among families. "It's much more of a day-life and afternoon-life kind of place where they have cute things like kite flying events," says Jenise Gato, an associate broker and Team Leader for LPT Realty, LLC's Peaceful Moves team. The neighborhood is also known for its many public parks, including Flamingo Park, a massive sporting complex where community little leagues compete.

Ball fields, playground at Flamingo Park

The neighborhood has several parks, the largest of which is Flamingo Park. It covers more than 31 acres and includes playgrounds, shade structures, batting cages and 11 ball fields, which are regularly used by little leagues. There are also two parklets and a designated dog park in the community. The kiddie parks sit along 111th and 108th avenues and have small shaded playgrounds and quaint lawn spaces. Craig Rupp K-9 Dog Park is a fenced-in space filled with pavilions for owners to sit under as they watch their pups explore various obstacles in size-designated areas. The park is also the venue for the community's annual Bow-Wow Ween Dog Costume Contest, held each October. Also in the neighborhood is Pembroke Lakes Golf and Racquet Club, a public club with practice greens, tennis courts and a swimming pool. Also on the property is Club 19 Restaurant, which is regularly rented out for weddings and events. Just outside the neighborhood is C.B. Smith Park, a 300-acre space with dozens of amenities, ranging from the ocean-themed Paradise Cove Waterpark to an AllGolf facility with putting greens, a mini-golf course and batting cages to a campsite and sports courts. Of note: the lakes throughout the community largely serve an aesthetic purpose, but non-motorized boats and fishing are permitted in some of them.

Pembroke Lakes Mall houses over 150 shops and eateries

The neighborhood is home to Pembroke Lakes Mall, which features an AMC Theater and more than 150 shops and eateries. Popular retailers include Bath & Body Works, Macy's, and H&M. Additional shopping options like Target, Publix, and The Home Depot sit just outside the mall. On the other side of town is Pembroke Lakes Shopping Plaza, a strip mall with specialty shops like Aligator's Cycling and Ramona's Alterations. It also has a few local eateries like JT's Sports Bar & Grill, a casual sports bar known for its grilled chicken wings. Additional shopping and dining options are available at the centrally located Village Square shopping center. Alongside Publix and Advanced Auto sit mainstay eateries like Mayor's Café & Bagel Emporium and Amici's Ristorante & Pizzeria, which has been serving authentic Italian pizza and more since 1999.

Traditional, Mediterranean-inspired ranches dominate

There are a variety of housing options here, with the most popular being detached ranch-style homes with minimal traditional and eclectic Mediterranean architectural influences. Most have three to four bedrooms and sit on moderate lots dotted with palm trees and tropical floral like Red Ti plants. Also available are Mediterranean and custom estates in gated communities. Overall, single-family dwellings range from $300,000 to $800,000. Condos and townhouses mostly have between one and three bedrooms and sell for between $150,000 and $500,000. According to Gato, who's been selling in the area for over 20 years, because of the affordability of homes and the area's desirability, "Once something gets on the market, it goes pretty quickly."

Charles W. Flanagan High School partners with local universities for dual enrollment program

The neighborhood is served by Broward County Public Schools, which includes Pembroke Lakes Elementary School, graded an A-minus on Niche, Walter C. Young Middle School, and Charles W. Flanagan High School, both graded a B-plus. Flanagan High partners with several colleges and universities, including the University of Florida, Broward College and Florida International University, to provide students with dual enrollment courses. Florida offers school choice, so students can also apply to attend public Pembroke Pines Charter Schools, including Pembroke Pines Charter Middle-Central Campus, located in the neighborhood. Also nearby is NUC University or Florida Technical College, a private technical school offering programs in comitology, healthcare, hospitalities, and more.

Annual Honorable Mayor Frank C. Ortis Golf Tournament hosted at Pembroke Lakes Golf Club

The city of Pembroke Pines hosts various events throughout the year, including the Annual Honorable Mayor Frank C. Ortis Golf Tournament, a charity golf competition held each April at the Pembroke Lakes Golf Club to support the Pembroke Pines Charter School Foundation. Another popular community event is the KISS Country Chili Cookoff, sponsored by the KISS Country 99.9 radio station. The long-running event is held each January in C.B. Smith Park and features Nashville headlines and, of course, a chili competition.

The closest interstates are I-595, 75 and 95, which makes it easy to commute into Fort Lauderdale, about 18 miles away, and Miami, about 23 miles away.
