The original Miramar neighborhood

Miramar Isles began as a small development designed to be a “bedroom community” for nearby Miami and Fort Lauderdale in the early 1950s. Miramar itself would later become a city, expanding its boundaries west as folks opted for its central location. As the city’s original neighborhood, Miramar Isles continues to represent all that is great about the era in which this community was born. Traffic is light, houses are mostly one-story ranchers and lawns are neatly trimmed. While the city has grown up and out, Miramar Isles remains a shining example of how one classic suburban neighborhood continues to impress.

Homes “built to last” in Miramar Isles

According to Victor Cruz, the ranch-style homes of Miramar Isles were “built to last.” The Realtor and broker is a Miami local, operating out of Miami Home Brokers Realty. Many homes he shows boast Spanish Revival features, including stucco archways or small verandas, ideal for residents looking to bask in the Miami heat. These properties were among the first to use backyards as additional living space with patio furniture and kidney-shaped pools. Many have carports or attached garages, too. Single-family homes list for between $400,000 and $600,000. “Compare that to million-dollar properties in newer gated communities, and you must admire the ingenuity and economy that went into the neighborhood’s development,” Cruz says. Potential buyers can also peruse a handful of townhome communities, including Woodscape and Positano.
