Need A House With A Garage In Coconut Grove?

I have many clients who need to buy a house with a garage but in Coconut Grove only 42% of the homes that are currently on the market have one. And of these homes many are new constructions which means that the price point is quite high (the median is $1,600,000). Why are there so few homes with garages in Coconut Grove? One big reason is that Coconut Grove is the land of the “garage conversion” meaning that over the years people have taken their 1 or 2 car garage and converted it into an office, playroom, den or even a master bedroom. Another reason is that the cottage style homes which make up a large portion of our market were built at a time when garages weren’t in style.
For comparison’s sake, 73% of Coral Gables homes currently on the market have at least a 1 or 2 car garage.
