If the kitchen is where everyone eventually gathers, this one nailed it.

The renovated kitchen at 1738 San Bernadino Way becomes the centerpiece of the home's open living space, with quartz surfaces, rich cabinetry, premium appliances and a generous island.

It feels polished without feeling untouchable.

Take a closer look, then message us to experience the rest of the home in person.

This week's Out of Town Tuesday has us heading across Alligator Alley to Coral Gables. 🌴

And 1101 Coral Way makes a pretty compelling case for a Miami weekend.

This 1926 residence sits on an expansive corner lot and offers 6 bedrooms, 5.5 baths and 4,386 square feet, along with a new pool and patio, updated kitchen and bathrooms, impact glass, and a separate upstairs 1-bedroom apartment.

One of our favorite parts may actually be the location: one block from Salvadore Park and just minutes from Miracle Mile, restaurants and shopping.

We’re featuring the home with our Compass referral partners at Team Citron, Miami specialists led by mother-daughter duo Bea and Jenna Citron.

And that's exactly what Out of Town Tuesday is about.

You may know us for Naples real estate, but when life takes you somewhere else, our Compass relationships can help connect you with trusted local expertise throughout Florida and beyond.

Now we're curious: if you were choosing your Florida lifestyle, would you pick Naples or Coral Gables, and why?

There’s a whole new lifestyle taking shape on Estero Bay. 🌴⛵

For this week’s Hey Denny, we’re heading to The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Estero Bay and the surrounding Saltleaf community for a look at one of Southwest Florida’s most exciting waterfront destinations.

From the residences overlooking the bay to Saltleaf Marina, golf and waterfront dining, this is about much more than where you live. It is about how you want to spend your days.

Boating in the morning. Golf in the afternoon. Dinner overlooking the water. And some pretty spectacular Southwest Florida sunsets in between. The planned Saltleaf lifestyle includes a 72-slip marina, golf and a waterfront restaurant from the MINA Group.

▶️ Take the tour with Denny. https://youtube.com/shorts/jWvMqYSy7YA?feature=share

Then SHARE this with someone who would love this lifestyle or TAG the person you could picture enjoying Estero Bay with you.

Questions about The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Saltleaf or living in this part of Southwest Florida? Send us a message. We’d be happy to help you explore it.

Could you split your year between Naples and Jackson Hole? ☀️🏔️
That’s the question behind this week’s Out of Town Tuesday.

We’re heading west to 185 S Swan Road, tucked behind the gates of Indian Springs Ranch in Jackson, Wyoming.

Offered at $23.5 million, this extraordinary property combines 17.75 acres, two serene ponds, expansive mountain views, a 7-bedroom main residence, and a separate 3-bedroom guest house. The community adds fishing, hiking and riding trails, tennis, pickleball, swimming and equestrian facilities.

Imagine spending winter near the Gulf in Naples and summer beneath the Tetons.

Sounds pretty good to us.

We’re proud to feature the property through our Compass referral partners Graham Faupel Mendenhall & Associates, longtime Jackson Hole specialists with more than five decades of market experience.

Now we want to know:

If you could pair Naples with one summer destination, would you choose:

🏔️ Jackson Hole
🌊 Nantucket
🌲 Colorado
🏙️ New York
✈️ Somewhere else?

Tag the person you'd split the year with.

BERT could change the way we move around Southwest Florida. 🚲🌴

This week on Hey Denny, Denny is taking a look at the Bonita Estero Rail Trail, better known as BERT.

The proposed multi-use trail would create a new place for walking, biking, and enjoying the outdoors while helping connect Naples, Bonita Springs, and Estero.

And that’s what makes projects like this interesting. They’re not simply amenities. They can become part of how we live, explore our communities and connect with the places around us.

Watch this week’s Hey Denny and tell us:

Would you use BERT? And if so, are you walking it or biking it?

Share this with someone who would want to hit the trail with you.

Could you trade a Naples sunset for a Hudson River sunset... at least part of the year? 🌴🏙️

This week's Out of Town Tuesday takes us to One West End Avenue in Manhattan.

Residence 15J is a 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath southwest corner residence with nearly 1,500 square feet, walls of glass, beautiful Hudson River views and Jeffrey Beers-designed interiors. It's offered at $3.25 million.

And the building may be just as impressive as the residence, with a 75-foot pool, fitness and spa spaces, private dining and entertaining areas and a spectacular 12,000-square-foot outdoor terrace.

We're featuring this property through our Compass referral partners Mark Jovanovic and Scott Hustis of Paradigm Advisory, another example of how our network can help clients well beyond Southwest Florida.

Now for the important question:

If you could keep Naples as home and choose ONE city for a second residence, would it be New York, Boston, Chicago, DC or somewhere else?
