Coral Shores, a tropical peninsula

Just 2 miles west of Fort Lauderdale's Atlantic beaches, Coral Shores provides homebuyers with mid-century homes on a sparkling canal. Residents are within walking distance of fine dining and a short drive from highly rated public schools. The neighborhood allows residents a level of solitude that is hard to find in other parts of Fort Lauderdale. "Even though Coral Shores is central to Fort Lauderdale's amenities, it's kind of hidden away," says Paul Stanovich, a Realtor with Marant & Associates Inc. who has sold homes in Fort Lauderdale for 28 years. "It is a relaxed, upscale neighborhood."
