Top 5 Things You May Not Know About Gables by the Sea

 Let the Earth's marvels from land and the waterways lure you into nirvana as you immerse yourself in the luxurious layers of Gables by the Sea, a slice of serenity amidst the sun-kissed embrace of City Beautiful.  

 Find yourself wrapped in awe and enchantment as you relish the hidden charms and untold secrets of Gables by the Sea, a renowned waterfront community and one of Coral Gables' oldest gated neighborhoods. 

Covering roughly 0.5 square miles between South Miami and the Village of Pinecrest, with around 360 properties comprising single-family homes and custom-built waterfront estates on small, deep water canals, Gables by the Sea is a sight to behold, a "fisherman's paradise" brought to life in Coral Gables' southeast corner. 

 But its allure extends far beyond its opulent residences and dreamy waterfront views. 

You see, Gables by the Sea is a treasure trove of undiscovered delights, drawing residents with a refined nautical lifestyle brimming with mystique and captivating beauty. 

 And we're about to uncover the unknown wonders that define this majestic paradise! 

 Here are five things you may not know about Gables by the Sea. 

  Nature's Silent Protectors       

Do you see those leafy canopies around Gables by the Sea?

Well, these mangroves are a significant part of Gables by the Seas's identity, heavily protected by the residents and the whole community!

And we completely understand why!

Aside from providing Gables by the Sea with a park-like appeal, mangroves are critical for the local ecosystem, especially for preventing coastal erosion and acting as natural barriers during storms, surges, and hurricanes.

Plus, they're also nurseries for the fishes and crustaceans surrounding the area!

So, don't even think about messing with these mangroves—the residents of Gables by the Sea are the ultimate guardians of nature's quiet heroes!

 The Coral Gables Connection    

Did you know some canals around Gables by the Sea are part of the historic Coral Gables Waterway?

Designed by George Merrick in the 1920s, the Coral Gables Waterway is an engineered system of canals and waterways initially created to link Coral Gables to Biscayne Bay so the area can have practical transportation routes and scenic waterfront properties.

Thanks to George Merrick's bright idea, this coastal sanctuary now has direct access to the Bay, significantly contributing to its serene atmosphere and luxurious appeal!

 Your 'Wild' Neighbors from the Sea    

Don't be surprised to see manatees and dolphins swimming around Gables by the Sea!

Despite its proximity to the city, this waterfront retreat is a refuge for local wildlife, thanks to the canals and mangroves winding throughout!

In fact, residents enjoy unique, up-close encounters with manatees on most days, as these gentle creatures love relaxing in the warm, shallow waters entering the community.

As for the dolphins, well, you'll have a view of them frolicking in the bay from your window!

Different bird species like herons, egrets, and ospreys, also give Gables by the Sea a daily visit.

 A Scenic Slice of the Past     

If you want a glimpse of Miami's historic past, step outside Gables by the Sea's gates and stroll along Old Cutler Road, a fabled roadway tracing back to the late 1800s.

Used by settlers traveling from Coconut Grove to Cutler, the scenic route runs alongside Gables by the Sea and is lined with towering banyan trees, tropical foliage, and some of Miami's oldest and most beautiful homes.

Old Cutler Road is also one of Miami's most picturesque drives and a pretty great route for biking, so if you feel like visiting the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden and Matheson Hammock Park, skip the main road and treat your senses to a sight-seeing session at this majestic roadway!

  Freedom from Fees, Living Unburdened        

Tired of paying expensive HOA dues?

In Gables by the Sea, you don't have to!

Yes, peeps, you read it right!

One of Gables by the Sea's standout features is its lack of mandatory homeowner association (HOA) fees, which isn't what you'd expect from such an exclusive gated community!

We're talking about perks like 24/7 security, impeccably manicured avenues, and serene streets sans the additional monthly or yearly charges!

That said, you can still make optional contributions toward security and neighborhood beautification efforts, so don't forget to pitch in and help keep this paradise pristine!
