Coconut Palm K-8 Academy

It's a solid choice for families who want a single K-8 campus for their younger kids and a straightforward, suburban feel in south Miami-Dade. Older students continue on to schools like Homestead Middle School and nearby high schools, so the whole education path stays close to home. With 269 homes sold in the past year, it's an active, established community rather than a quiet backwater.

By Miami-Dade standards, no — the median list price is $460,000 and the average is $290 per square foot on a median home size of about 1,659 square feet. The active range runs from around $4,200 all the way to $1,789,000, but only two listings are above $1M, so the bulk of inventory sits in mid-market territory.

Expect to pay a median of about $460,000 to list and $495,000 for what actually closes, with sellers collecting 98% of asking on average. That small gap between list and sold prices tells you homes are priced fairly and buyers aren't overpaying to compete.

It's balanced and steady. There are 208 active listings and homes take a median of roughly 48 days to sell, which gives buyers time to tour, compare, and negotiate — you can track everything in real time on the live map.

HOA costs are light here — the median is about $100 a month, and only two active listings are in gated communities. Property taxes run higher, with a median around $7,162 a year, so factor that into your monthly budget alongside the mortgage.
