Top 5 Things You May Not Know About The Moorings

From Coconut Groves to Luxury Homes  

Like most Miami communities, The Moorings also had its humble beginnings, but it has a fancy tinge to it nonetheless!

You see, The Moorings sits on the land once part of Charles Peacock's expansive coconut plantation, a key figure in The Grove's founding in the late 1800s.

The historical connection makes this luxurious community one of the many neighborhoods in Coconut Grove that carry the legacy of Miami's early settlement, evolving from an agricultural landmark into the prestigious community locals now covet. 

It's pretty far from a Cinderella story, but being part of a storied chapter in Miami's growth makes it a glamorous one altogether.

A Home for Every Aesthetic  

Unlike most gated neighborhoods across Magic City, The Moorings doesn't box residents into a single design or aesthetic style. 

Quite the contrary—this community thrives on its architectural variety! Walk around, and you'll see that no two homes look the same. 

From charming Mediterranean-style villas with warm terracotta roofs and ornate ironwork to sleek, modern homes with minimalist lines and expansive glass fronts, it's a visual feast. 

Want to paint your gate a bright red? Go right ahead! 

Thinking of a deep blue for your exterior walls? Go for it! 

The Moorings is all about personal style, and there's no design police lurking to keep you in line—here, anything goes!

Your Front Row to Marine Life  

Ah, yes, it's the morning once again!

It's time for your daily dance with the dolphins!

Oh yes, you read it right!

Thanks to The Moorings' prime spot along Biscayne Bay's picturesque shores, residents enjoy a daily connection with Miami's vibrant coastal ecosystem!

In fact, it's not uncommon to spot dolphins playfully leaping through the water, manatees gliding along the shoreline, and a diverse array of bird species soaring overhead or wading in the shallows. 

Now tell us, who needs Narnia when you have a magical backdrop like this?

No doubt, the presence of marine life adds a sense of wonder and unique beauty to The Moorings' already alluring nature!
