About the Property
A rare find just minutes from downtown Fort Lauderdale — this 2-bedroom, 1-bath single-family home blends privacy, location, and lifestyle in one perfect package.
Set on a 6,303 sq ft lot with a fully fenced yard, the home features an open living area, modern updates, and space to build, expand or add a pool.
?? Fenced-in yard - Ideal for privacy, pets, and entertaining
????? 5-minute walk to Riverside Park - Shaded trails and riverfront green space
?? 15-minute walk to Downtown Fort Lauderdale - Las Olas dining, cafés, and nightlife
?? 10 minutes to FLL Airport - Perfect for travelers and cruisers
??? 6 miles from the beach - Reach the sand in under fifteen minutes
?? Solid 1951 construction - Modern interior updates
?? Large lot with room to expand - Build an accessory unit or add a pool
?? Ample parking - Convenient for residents and guests
Why It Stands Out
Located in one of Fort Lauderdale's most desirable in-town neighborhoods, this home offers the convenience of downtown living without the congestion.
Recent nearby sales are reaching $700K–$900K, and ongoing migration from New York and other major cities is fueling premium demand for centrally located single-family homes like this.
Whether you're a professional seeking a walkable urban lifestyle, an investor watching this block’s boom and affluent neighbors, Fort Lauderdale's appreciation curve, or a relocation buyer escaping northern taxes and winters, this property hits every note.
