THE GROVE: A TIMELESS TROPICAL GEM

Coconut Grove forever beckons the creative pioneer. Its sleepy hollows and waterside charm have attracted notable pioneers of innovation, adventure, romance and storytelling since the turn of the nineteenth century. Tennessee Williams, Robert Frost and Alexander Graham Bell, once upon a time, called Coconut Grove home. Sophisticated northern visitors seeking tropical respite often stayed and became permanent residents, fearlessly embarking on this undeveloped gem and marking The Grove with a unique ambience that prevails to this day.

In 1916, horticultural explorer Dr. David Grandison Fairchild purchased a nine acre waterside property and named it the Kampong. Dr. Fairchild is credited for introducing more than 30,000 botanical species to North America. He transformed The Kampong into a magical garden filled with a myriad of horticultural souvenirs: plants, seedlings and trees that he collected on his frequent global expeditions. Since then, The Kampong’s unusually spectacular gardens have been carefully preserved and, as a member of the National Tropical Botanical Garden, it is considered one of the five most important gardens in America.

Today, Dr. Fairchild’s passion for tropical splendor endures within the heart of Coconut Grove’s eight square mile radius.

Its 20,000 residents are a diverse mix of curious intellectuals, artists, innovators and nature enthusiasts who seek an elevated quality of living through quiet, understated luxury surrounded in a bounty of natural beauty.

Hidden only minutes away from Downtown Miami, Brickell, and the famous beaches of Key Biscayne and Miami Beach, The Grove is amidst a vibrant cultural renaissance that is garnering attention from near and far. Yet, its ardent connection to the past maintains the humble, small town vibe for which The Grove is famous.

Coconut Grove’s architecture continues to evolve, carefully and effortlessly weaving in the new with the old.

Historic homes share winding streets and charming cul-de-sacs with the country’s top schools, thick storied gardens, active green spaces, epicurean restaurants and luxury boutiques. Nestled together against the backdrop of shimmering ocean waters and magnificently canopied landscapes, Coconut Grove is a paradise to call home.
