What $4 to $5 Million Will Buy in Coral Gables
Coral Gables has some of the most valuable real estate in South Florida. As Forbes Magazine puts it, “Coral Gables has long set the high bar for luxury real estate,” with a median home value of $766,600, more than twice the median home value for Miami-Dade County as a whole. The median price per square foot ($451) is also more than twice the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach average of ($221). To see what $4 to $5 million would buy today, we asked three real estate agents to submit one of their homes for sale in that price range – give or take a few hundred thousand dollars. Here is what they came up with, in different Gables locations.
