About Davie
Davie was first settled in 1909 by farmers from the Panama Canal Zone. They called the area Zona until 1925, when the town was incorporated under its current name. R.P. Davie, a Colorado millionaire, funded Everglades drainage projects across the region. The town reverted to unincorporated status before re-chartering officially in 1961.
The town covers about 36 square miles. The population reached 110,320 in the 2020 census, making Davie the largest town in Florida by that measure.
Notable features about Davie:
- Frank Stirling, the first mayor, was a University of Florida horticulturist who helped found Flamingo Gardens.
- Cattle herding seeded the cowboy culture that the 1962 Western Theme District later codified into town code.
- Over 165 miles of equestrian trails run through the residential grid.
- The 72,000-square-foot Bergeron Rodeo Grounds hosts PRCA-sanctioned events each year.
- Nova Southeastern University operates the largest private campus in the state within town limits.
- The Davie Mounted Police Unit still patrols neighborhoods on horseback.
Davie Luxury Real Estate
Davie's median home price sits near $525,000, mid-tier within Broward County. The luxury segment lives mostly in the western half of town. Long Lake Ranches anchors the top tier with custom estates on lakefront lots.
Turnberry Estates handles new builds priced from $1.2 to $2 million. Equestrian-zoned acreage west of Nob Hill Road runs $900,000 to $5 million. The FEMA flood map update of July 2024 added 1,934 parcels to special flood hazard areas.
Long Lake Ranches homes sit on the market for 51 to 110 days, longer than the South Florida average. Broward County's effective property tax rate runs near 0.95%. Florida has no state income tax, a structural benefit at the luxury tier. An experienced Davie Realtor® opens access to off-market estates and Turnberry Estates pre-launches, as most multimillion-dollar deals close through private broker channels.
Top Highlights of Davie Luxury Homes for Sale
Long Lake Ranches Estate Community
Long Lake Ranches sits along the west side of Nob Hill Road, north of Griffin Road. GL Homes developed the community across three sections between 2000 and 2007. The combined neighborhood holds roughly 515 estate homes behind a 24-hour guarded gate.
Lots range from 0.5 to 1.5 acres. The community is centered on a 16-acre lake, and floor plans range from 3,500 to 7,000 square feet with 5 to 7 bedrooms. Median active pricing in 2026 sits near $2.41 million, while top listings can reach $3.5 million.
Amenities include a clubhouse, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and equestrian trails.
Turnberry Estates and Luxury New Construction
Turnberry Estates leads Davie's new construction tier. The gated community sits in western Davie on half-acre or larger lots. Home prices range between $1.2 and $2 million, depending on lot and layout. Floor plans range from 3,000 to over 5,500 square feet, with 5 to 7 bedrooms. The community was roughly 65% built out as of early 2026. Marigold by Pulte and The Vineyards fill out the mid-tier new-build band. Flamingo Ranch Estates adds equestrian-zoned builds priced $900,000 to $1.8 million.
Equestrian Zoning and Horse-Friendly Acreage
Davie is one of the few Broward cities where zoning allows horses on residential lots. The 1960s ordinance mandated 5-acre minimums in western and agricultural districts. Over 165 miles of equestrian trails connect residential streets, parks, and open spaces. Stables, barns, and arenas appear on many western-Davie lots above one acre. Horse-friendly luxury inventory runs from $900,000 on smaller equestrian lots up to $5 million on full ranches. The town's Mounted Police Unit underscores the institutional commitment to horse culture.
The Western Davie Acreage Corridor
The western side of Davie holds the town's largest residential lots and lowest housing density. Nob Hill Road runs as the rough boundary between dense central neighborhoods and the acreage corridor. Communities west of Nob Hill include Stonebrook Estates, Oak Hill Village, Imagination Farms, and Ivanhoe Estates. Ivanhoe Estates runs as a no-HOA neighborhood with acreage parcels for horse use. Tree Tops Park, Long Key Natural Area, and the Westridge Open Space Preserve border the corridor. Oak Hill Village holds estate properties on acreage above $1.2 million each.
Country in the City: Davie's Western Heritage
Davie calls itself 'the country in the city', a phrase codified in the 1962 Western Theme District. Buildings along Davie Road carry frontier-style signage, fencing, and architectural elements. The Bergeron Rodeo Grounds hosts PRCA-sanctioned circuit events all year. Old Davie School at 6650 Griffin Road sits on the National Register of Historic Places. The Orange Blossom Festival, parade, and rodeo draw over 15,000 visitors each February.
Value vs. Weston and Coastal Broward
Davie sells acreage at a structural discount to Weston, Cooper City, and coastal markets. Comparable single-family inventory in Weston runs 30-50% higher per square foot. Cooper City carries similar acreage zoning but lacks the scale of Long Lake Ranches. Coastal Broward luxury at the same price point usually means smaller lots without horse access. Davie also has slightly lower property tax burdens than those in Fort Lauderdale and Miami Beach. Buyers trade beach proximity for acreage, equestrian access, and central Broward positioning.
Education in Davie
Davie is part of Broward County Public Schools, the sixth-largest district in the United States. The town hosts the South Florida Education Center, which is home to multiple colleges and universities. Public, charter, and private schools serve over 100,000 residents across the town.

What Are the Best Luxury Neighborhoods in Davie, Florida?

Is Davie, Florida, a Good Place to Live?
Davie works for buyers who want acreage and equestrian access without leaving Broward County. The Western Theme District and rodeo grounds give the town a clear cultural identity. Nova Southeastern University and the South Florida Education Center bring institutional anchors. Several large parks line the residential grid: Tree Tops, Long Key Natural Area, and Westridge. Drive time to Fort Lauderdale International Airport stays under 25 minutes. Property tax burdens are lower than in coastal Broward and Miami-Dade.
Can I Keep Horses on a Davie Luxury Property?
Yes, on parcels of one acre or more within the equestrian and agricultural zoning districts. The town code requires specific setbacks for stables, paddocks, and manure storage. Western Davie, west of Nob Hill Road, has the most flexible horse zoning. Long Lake Ranches and Turnberry Estates do not allow horses on individual lots. Equestrian trails connect through Davie's residential streets, parks, and natural areas.
How Does Long Lake Ranches Compare to Turnberry Estates?
Long Lake Ranches and Turnberry Estates sit at opposite ends of the Davie luxury market timeline. GL Homes built Long Lake Ranches between 2000 and 2007, with no new inventory available there. Turnberry Estates is an active construction community with new inventory still selling in 2026. Long Lake Ranches sits behind 24-hour guarded gates with a 16-acre lake at its center. Turnberry Estates offers larger lots, with some parcels extending to over one acre. Prices overlap roughly between $1.2 and $3 million, depending on the community and lot.
Is Davie Luxury Real Estate a Good Investment in 2026?
Davie luxury real estate enters 2026 with strong fundamentals. Davie's price per square foot rose 6.1% in the past year. Long Lake Ranches' inventory remains constrained, with fewer than five active listings most months. New construction at Turnberry Estates and Flamingo Ranch Estates adds high-end supply through 2027. Davie remains the only Broward town where you can own horse-zoned acreage at a central county address. Buyers should verify FEMA flood zone status - the 2024 map updates added 1,934 parcels to special hazard areas.
