Flamingo Groves
Acre-sized lots, equestrian trails, and a rural atmosphere in the heart of West-Central Davie, where older homesteads mix with new luxury construction along the Flamingo Road corridor.
Community Overview
Flamingo Groves is not a single subdivision but rather a collection of acreage properties and estate homes spread along the Flamingo Road corridor in West-Central Davie, south of I-595. The area takes its name from its proximity to Flamingo Gardens, the historic botanical garden and wildlife sanctuary. Homes here sit on nearly acre-sized lots, with a mix of older ranch-style properties from the 1970s through the 1990s and newer custom construction built in recent years.
Average sale prices hover around $1,852,656, reflecting the premium buyers place on large lots, privacy, and the equestrian-friendly lifestyle. Some sub-areas are gated, but the broader Flamingo Groves area is not. HOA presence varies by pocket, with some properties carrying no HOA at all. This makes the area attractive to buyers who want acreage living without deed restrictions.
Amenities
Flamingo Groves is not a master-planned community, so there are no shared clubhouses or community pools. Instead, the lifestyle centers on private property amenities: pools, barns, equestrian facilities, and outdoor living spaces. The proximity to Flamingo Gardens provides a unique neighbor, and the surrounding area includes access to horse trails, parks, and the rural character that defines western Davie.
Schools
The Flamingo Groves area is zoned for Flamingo Elementary, one of the well-regarded elementary schools in western Davie. Confirm your specific school assignments using the BCPS Find My School tool, as boundaries can shift with new development.
Flood Zone
Properties along the Flamingo Road corridor and in western Davie can fall within various FEMA flood zones. Acreage lots near canals and natural drainage areas may carry AE designations requiring flood insurance. Always verify flood zone status for your specific parcel at the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.
Location and Commute
Flamingo Groves stretches along the Flamingo Road corridor south of I-595, placing residents within easy reach of the highway system. I-595 provides direct access to I-75 (west) and I-95/Fort Lauderdale (east). Despite the rural feel, downtown Fort Lauderdale is roughly 25 minutes away, and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is about 20 minutes east. Daily errands are handled along Flamingo Road and nearby University Drive.
Market Context
Flamingo Groves competes with other western Davie acreage communities, including properties near Southwest Ranches and the broader rural Davie market. The area sees steady demand from buyers seeking large lots, equestrian-friendly properties, and the ability to build custom homes. New construction scattered throughout the area has pushed average prices higher, and the land value alone on acre-sized lots supports a strong price floor. Inventory is limited because many owners are long-term holders.
