The Pembroke Pines community of Lakeside South is a large neighborhood on the west side of Broward County. "Most of the homes in Pembroke Pines are in gated communities with newer amenities," says Denis Kersaint, 2023 winner of the Most Transactions for Signature Real Estate Companies. There are several condo complexes in the northeast section of Lakeside South, next to the North Perry Airport. Hollybrook Golf and Tennis Club is in the center of the neighborhood, with upscale townhomes and condos surrounding the grounds. The southwest section of the community is filled with mansions on ample landscaped lots.

20th century + postwar constructions
Homebuyers will find two-bedroom condos in late 20th-century stucco buildings, often painted in pastels, in developments with pools and gyms for under $200,000. Prices for the same size units rise to $300,000 around Hollybrook. Newer traditional, large Spanish and Mediterranean-style homes are generally situated on one of the neighborhood's many man-made lakes. While the housing types are similar, each has its own distinct features. These newer homes feature attached garages, large driveways and clay-tiled roofs and are listed for between $500,000 and $700,000 for three to four bedrooms. The postwar homes are in designs more traditional to South Florida – ranch or hacienda styles with bright colors surrounded by green shrubbery and trees – and listed for under $500,000.

Tennis + art
Vast Tanglewood Park in the northern part of the neighborhood features some of the wetland landscape so prevalent here – the Everglades are just 10 miles west – but it also has basketball, paddle ball, and racquetball courts as well as a large pavilion and shaded playground. Hollybrook Golf and Tennis Club has an 18-hole course that's open to the public, a pool, and grass tennis courts. The City of Pembroke Pines Community Garden and the Studio 18 Art Complex, a maker space for local artists to work and show, are just east of Hollybrook. Cinnamon Place Park is a small green space with a playground and volleyball court on the community's southern border.

A social city council
The City of Pembroke Pines keeps a busy social calendar with events at municipal spaces such as The Charles F. Dodge City Center all year. The Taste of Pines, where local restaurants and food artisans showcase their creations for a voting public, is in its 14th year. The Pines Recreation Center hosts an Independence Day blowout with food trucks, fireworks, and music. Referring to this lively community calendar, Kersaint says, "All the cities west of the Florida Turnpike are younger and were built to cater to Millennials."
Pembroke Pines Shopping Center on the northeast corner of Lakeside South draws visitors from within and outside the neighborhood. Patrons will find a Lowe's home improvement store, a Publix, and a Broward County favorite, Broward Meat & Fish, location. Fast and slow food restaurants like Dairy Queen and Chuck E. Cheese also operate here. River Run shopping mall also has a Publix, but Plaza Diner is the real reason to go. Listed by Eater Magazine as one of 13 Classic Old-School Diners in South Florida, Plaza's Heart Attack Sandwich is infamous in these parts.
