FROM THE LISTING

A rare 5-bedroom, 5-bath Fort Lauderdale waterfront ranch, this is luxury without compromise. Set on 120 feet of waterfront with a 30,000-lb boat lift, whole-home generator, and nearly 500 sq. Ft. Of covered air-conditioned outdoor living, it blends Hamptons ease with Southern Living warmth. Just across from the beach in a premier location, you're within two miles of fine dining, private school options, and the best Fort Lauderdale has to offer. A split floor plan creates connection without crowding, while a separate front den, butler's pantry, flex gym/office, generous gathering spaces, heated saltwater pool, new roof, impact windows, and two new 2026 AC systems make the home feel turnkey, elevated, and impossible to replicate.

Rules and limits for this property

We measure the property’s water edge, then take 5 ft off each side — the dock setback that applies here, which is what leaves 110 ft of berth. Width is the other limit: a dock and the boat tied to it may together reach 30% of the way across, so on this 113 ft canal nothing may extend more than 33 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. We’ll measure it at the property for you.

Limits from Fort Lauderdale ULDR 47-19.3 (dock and mooring structures) and Code 8-91(e) (moored vessels).
