About

Homes for sale in Coconut Grove sit in a place settled before Miami incorporated as a city, and the Grove's first post office opened in 1873. Ralph Munroe built The Barnacle, his bayside home, in 1891. It has never left its spot on Main Highway, which makes it the oldest house in Miami-Dade County still standing where it was built. Peacock Park and Kennedy Park front the water, and the marinas host several sailing and yacht clubs. CocoWalk is the retail center of the business core, a few blocks back from shore. Old wood-frame cottages and new builds share the neighborhood.
