The house offers waterfront living at its best. Enjoy the quiet of lapping tides and exotic birdcalls. Air traffic from the airport glides further south. This new, two-story home boasts a private dock, five car driveway and spacious garage. Come swing in the hammock and watch manatees and dolphin swim by. Dine poolside in the shade of a large open-aired terrace which benefits from cooling breezes in the summer and wind protection in the winter. You can meander to the beach for some local snorkeling, schedule a game at the tennis club or a few swings at Indian Creek golf club. And if fishing or wide open spaces call to you, 10 minutes by boat or personal watercraft through Haulover inlet will take you out into the stunning blues of the Atlantic Ocean. Jog in the morning and kayak the Intracoastal before sunset. Launch your windsurf or waterski directly from the dock and skim across the bay. Steer your boat through the intracoastal into downtown Miami and have drinks at Bayfront Park. Your imagination is your only limitation to the pleasures of residing in this haven.

Surfside is rated as one of the safest towns in the U.S and harks back to a time when residents enjoyed magnolia scented evening strolls with their dogs and children rode their bikes or played tether ball in the streets.
