Dutch South African Village | Coral Gables

One of Coral Gables' many unique qualities includes its 7 architecturally distinct villages inspired by different regions from around the world. Located in serene south Coral Gables, the Dutch South African Village is the smallest comprising of just 5 single family homes built between 1925 and 1930.  Inspired by the 17th century architecture of Dutch colonist farmhouses in South Africa, these homes are all one-of-a-kind and display charming, unique details such as ornate decorative gables, red thatched roofs, and clean, white-washed exteriors. The village was created by Marion Sims Wyeth, one of South Florida' s most prolific architects credited for some of the region's most well-known properties including Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach. 

Aside from the charming architecture and historical significance, the Dutch South African Village is nestled within one of the most desireable locations in the city. Spanning two blocks at the crossroad of South Coral Gables and Southwest Coconut Grove, residents can walk easily walk to Merrie Christmas and Ingraham Parks and take a short drive to CocoWalk in Coconut Grove, Shops at Sunset Park in South Miami, and Shops at Merrick Park in Coral Gables.
