Overview
Description
This is it! Hidden beneath a canopy of mature trees in highly sought after Melrose Park, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers something increasingly rare in Fort Lauderdale-a private backyard oasis in the heart of the city. Set on nearly 9,000 square feet, lush landscaping wraps the property in shade and privacy. Mature fruit trees, new pavers, fresh sod, a covered patio, and multiple gathering spaces create a hidden garden where mornings begin beneath swaying palms and evenings end with sunsets filtering through the canopy and café lights twinkling overhead. Near St. Thomas Aquinas High School with easy access to I-95, I-595, Florida's Turnpike, and State Road 7 (US-441), it is also close to Las Olas Boulevard, the Riverwalk District, Fort Lauderdale's beaches, shopping, dining, and parks. The warmth continues inside. A covered front porch with a wood-plank ceiling opens to a light-filled living space with vaulted wood-beam ceilings, expansive windows, a fireplace, and easy-care flooring with no carpet. The updated kitchen blends granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and timeless finishes, while the third bedroom's wood ceiling adds another layer of character. The roof was installed in November 2023. The home offers approximately 1,294 square feet of living area with public water and sewer. The owners' ducks have even made the backyard their own—a charming reminder of how peaceful this setting feels despite being in the heart of Fort Lauderdale. Seller reports a current flood-insurance premium of approximately $650 per year and believes the policy may be transferable to a new owner. Any assignment or continuation, premium, coverage, underwriting, and buyer eligibility are subject to carrier approval and independent verification. Seller's current flood insurance is approximately only $650 per year and may be transferrable to new owner (subject to verification).
