The Hammocks is a large master-planned community of almost 18,000 homes in Miami's West Kendall. The suburb is beautifully landscaped, with mature oaks, palms and poincianas shading sidewalk-lined streets. Many houses are set on spacious lakeside lots, and each subdivision is within walking distance of a park or a clubhouse. According to resident Marcus Barrios, the broker and owner of Barrios and Associates Realty, the big draw to the community is its wide variety of homes. "There are condos, townhouses and everything from starter homes to forever homes. Lots of pool homes, too," he says. Nearby shopping and proximity to downtown Miami, less than 25 miles away, add to its appeal.
The Hammocks features lakeside homes on spacious lots.
