Homes in this quiet neighborhood RARELY come on the market.

Lauderdale Beach and the International Swimming Hall of Fame Pool. The heralded Broward Center for Performing Arts is within two blocks. As more people discover the South Florida area, this property provides the feel of a neighborhood yet is steps from downtown. It’s the best of both worlds is truly is a dream come true!
