One of the most affluent suburbs in South Florida is the lovely Village of Pinecrest. Established in 1996, Pinecrest is a mere 8-square miles, but offers a wealth of amenities to its fortunate residents such as the top schools in the county and many beautiful parks, including the unique Pinecrest Gardens, a twenty-acre park filled with botanical gardens, a butterfly exhibit, swan lake, and a children’s play area (including a petting zoo).
One of the biggest lures of Pinecrest is the fact that its lot sizes are much larger than usual is that it provides a quaint, small town atmosphere – and it strives hard to keep that rural feeling with many beautification projects. You’ll find unique street signs throughout the Village of Pinecrest, thousands of flowering trees and even their own hometown newspaper. Just 20 minutes away from downtown Miami or Miami International Airport, The Village of Pinecrest is the ideal neighborhood if you’re seeking larger-than-usual lots (many are 1+ acres).
