What this water allows

Boat setback10 ft each side
Dockable lengththe water edge less the setbacks85 ft
Reach across the canal30% of 96 ft, dock and boat together · the dock itself stops at 24 ft28 ft
Depthno public survey we can rely onNot stated

We measure the property’s water edge, then take 10 ft off each side — the boat setback that applies here, which is what leaves 85 ft of dockable length. Width is the other limit: a dock and the boat tied to it may together reach 30% of the way across, so on this 96 ft canal nothing may extend more than 28 ft from your property line. Depth is the one limit we don’t state: no public survey covers these canals at a resolution we can rely on.

Limits from ULDR 47‑19.3(h) (where a moored boat may lie) and Code 8‑91(e) (how far it may reach).

FROM THE LISTING

Set behind the gates of Bay Colony, this fully remodeled residence with exquisite designer finishes and exceptional Craftsmanship commands 105ft of ocean-access with no fixed bridges. Inside, soaring ceilings and walls of glass keep the water in view from nearly every room. The kitchen was built for both the everyday and the occasion: double islands, Gaggenau appliances, La Cornue range, and a dedicated coffee station. Beyond it, a bar & club room, a temperature-controlled wine room, and a private theater with full surround sound. Every bedroom is ensuite, and the primary suite adds his-and-hers baths. Electric blinds, custom window treatments, and built-in closets throughout. Minutes to Coral Ridge Country Club, Executive Airport, The Beach and Pine Crest School. Offered turnkey. A true smart home: new lighting throughout, with lighting, electric blinds, and audio all controlled from your phone or tablet. Brand-new impact windows and doors throughout. Recent capital improvements include a 2024 roof and a newer seawall and dock. The items that matter most on the water and cost the most to address later. The four-car garage is built with ceilings high enough to accommodate lifts, doubling capacity for a serious collection.
