Explore The Moorings

 Let Biscayne Bay's comforting breeze lull you into sweet serenity as you wrap yourself in the tropical elegance of The Moorings, an exclusive bayfront community in the southern section of Coconut Grove! 

Nestled south on Main Highway, moments from Barnacle Historic Park and The Kampongs' lush embrace, is The Moorings, a tiny gated neighborhood comprising only 43 stunning, architecturally designed mansions bearing Mediterranean and contemporary designs, refined features, and lavish details. 

Spanning only a fraction of a square mile, The Moorings is near South Grove to the south, North Grove to the north, Coral Gables to its west, and Silver Bluff to its northwest, directly surrounded by Coconut Grove Proper.  

 It is home to approximately 150   residents as of the latest US Census. 

Known as one of Coconut Grove's top and most private enclaves, boasting a select collection of luxury waterfront homes and serene, sun-kissed ambiance, The Moorings, like most gated neighborhoods, is far from what you'd call a tourist destination. 

In fact, it's extremely the opposite! 

In The Moorings, residents can be seen lounging around their million-dollar mansions, getting ready to set sail in private boats and yachts, and tending to their expertly manicured gardens — or having someone else do it for them!

In short, The Moorings pretty much screams "old money." 

 But don't get us wrong — while The Moorings locals love the privacy and seclusion, it doesn't mean they're cut off from the world! 

Why would they be when they have the best of Coconut Grove and Miami just beyond those massive archways? 

Minutes away, you'll find  CocoWalk  , a bustling open-air shopping mall along Commodore Plaza that offers everything from high-end shops, boutiques, casual cafés, and fine dining. 

If the mood calls for a day of nature and fun activities, there's always Coconut Grove's plethora of outdoor destinations, including   Vizcaya Museum & Gardens , a stunning Italian Renaissance-style villa nestled along Biscayne Bay built in the early 20th century as the winter residence of industrialist James Deering. 

Located just a 10-minute drive from The Moorings, the estate features opulent European antiques, art collections, and lush formal gardens with elaborate fountains and sculptures, making it a treasured historical landmark and your glimpse into Miami's Gilded Age past. 

 The Kampong  , nestled 3 minutes from The Moorings, is a nearer option, especially if you don't like driving for more than a whole Taylor Swift song.

A tropical botanical garden that was once Dr. David Fairchild's private estate, The Kampong boasts nine acres of rare and exotic tropical fruit and flowering trees from around the world, set against a serene backdrop of Biscayne Bay, serves as a living testament to Fairchild's botanical legacy and provides a peaceful retreat with its lush landscapes and historic home. 

And did we mention that Barnacle Historic State Park  is just moments away?

The preserved home of Ralph Middleton Munroe, one of Miami's pioneering figures and a yacht designer, Barnacle Historic State Park is one of Miami-Dade's oldest structures and the best spot to experience Old Florida's coastal lifestyle, complete with Biscayne Bay's scenic views and the tranquil ambiance of hardwood trees! 

 Boating enthusiasts in The Moorings also cherish their proximity to marinas like  Dinner Key  ,   Regatta Harbour Marina  ,   Bayshore Landing Marina,   and  Grove Harbour Marina  , convenient for those without a private dock in their homes. 

Aside from all this, The Moorings is a quick trip from Coconut Grove's commercial scene and famous neighborhoods like Coral Gables, Downtown Miami, Brickell, and Little Havana, so when it gets a little "vanilla" in your private retreat, Miami's melting pot is less than 20 minutes away!

If you're from the outside looking in and have always been curious about life in The Moorings, we're here to answer your million-dollar questions (no pun intended!).

Characterized by its stunning array of homes, from grand Mediterranean-inspired estates to sleek, modern residences, The Moorings offers a seamless blend of exclusivity and community by the waterfront, serving as a sanctuary for those who value privacy, elegance, and camaraderie. 

Here, days brim with flora and fauna, comfort, and quality, where peaceful streets are framed by mature oak and flowering trees, perfect for mornings of leisurely walks and afternoons of scenic bike rides. 

Meanwhile, The Moorings real estate scene is one to beat, thanks to its prime lots that can reach over 14,000 square feet and massive homes that rise to three stories — and as expected, they're not cheap either!

In fact, The Moorings listings can even go as high as $10 million, and they usually have the complete package — swimming pools, private docks, gigantic patios, outdoor lounging areas, multiple bedrooms, entertainment rooms, service quarters, the works!

That said, it's not surprising that residents prefer to stay within their mansions' lavish perimeters — living in The Moorings is pretty much a never-ending vacation. 

Of course, access to amenities is never a feat in The Moorings, as we mentioned earlier.

Families are only a short distance from some of Miami's most prestigious public and private schools,  ensuring that educational excellence is always within reach. 

The prestigious community is also just a few minutes from business hubs like Downtown Miami, Brickell, and its own city, Coconut Grove, so finding a career opportunity that suits your expertise is possible in this seclusion.

For those seeking a home that embodies sophistication, community, and the natural beauty of the bay, The Moorings remains the perfect choice — a neighborhood where life feels serene and richly rewarding. 

Immerse in a lifestyle of elegance, privacy, and a strong sense of community, all set against the lush backdrop of Coconut Grove's most coveted waterfront enclave.  

 The Moorings' seamless blend of architectural grandeur, serene natural surroundings, and proximity to the vibrant heart of Miami creates a living experience that feels intimate and full of possibilities, promising mornings unfolding into the quiet luxury of bay views, shaded streets, and warmth of neighbors who share a common appreciation for the finer things in life.  

Whether it's the unparalleled access to Biscayne Bay, the proximity to top-rated schools, or the unique character of each residence, The Moorings offers a haven that turns every day into something extraordinary. 

 Discover a suburban life that transcends the expected, providing an unparalleled sanctuary that feels like a world of its own — this is The Moorings, your next forever paradise.
