One of Coral Ridge's newest waterfront estates, this coastal-inspired jewel features an effortless open layout, a fabulous outdoor entertainment space, and yacht dockage on a wide canal.

An exceptional waterfront estate comes to fruition in this newly built jewel, complete with prime yacht dockage on a deep, extra-wide canal in Fort Lauderdale's desirable Coral Ridge community, just three properties from the point, which is right across from Hugh Taylor Birch State Park.  Fresh coastal style gives the perfect expression of South Florida living in this five-bedroom residence by Waterbrook Builders, a high-end Fort Lauderdale firm with a legacy of quality spanning more than two decades.  A refined take on traditional design, this picture-perfect masterwork shows the creative vision of award-winning Colestock & Muir Architects whose work has been featured in Florida Design and Luxe magazine.

Inside the lantern-lit entry, the airy interiors combine select finishes and leading-edge amenities for a look of understated elegance and an experience of comfortable luxury.  Arranged in an effortless open flow, the main rooms are brightened by waterside glass walls that connect to the resort-inspired pool terrace designed to make indoor/outdoor entertaining a way of life.  En-suite baths serve every bedroom including the first-floor VIP suite and the ultra-luxurious upstairs master wing, opening to a sizeable balcony for relaxing outdoors in the backdrop of the tree-lined waterway.  Designed and built to the highest specifications, this flawless waterfront estate will stand the test of time with lasting quality and beauty.

Location

Northeast 17th Street, Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  On the Intracoastal Waterway's western shore, the desirable Coral Ridge community is minutes from Fort Lauderdale Beach and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park.  Home to a private yacht club, Coral Ridge is also next to a beautiful waterfront park, and has The Galleria's fine shopping and dining right at hand.

Property

Meticulously built in 2017, this coastal-inspired masterwork fronts 100+/- feet on a wide deepwater canal just three properties from the point, and provides the yachter with full-service dockage.  The shoreline is protected by a new seawall cap and batter pilings.  Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open the home to the waterfront patio, stepping down right by the dock, where the sleek pool with sun shelf and raised spa is the centerpiece of this fabulous outdoor entertainment space served by a full summer kitchen on the lanai.

Residence

Open living areas, five bedrooms, and five and a-half baths are provided in the spacious total of 7,955+/- square feet along with an elevator, walk-in closets, laundry rooms on both levels, and a three-bay garage with extra storage.  Sleek marble floors flow through the main level, with wide-plank wood floors upstairs and high ceilings on both levels.  Fashioned with a stylish designer look, clean-lined architectural millwork, tongue-and-groove-paneled ceiling treatments, and five-panel interior doors are featured along with classically inspired modern light fixtures and custom bath finishes of glass and stone.  Leading-edge amenities include the impact-glass windows and exterior doors, three-zone air conditioning, 7.1 surround-sound system, and central vacuum system. 

First Floor:  Directly ahead of the two-story foyer, the light-filled living room overlooks the waterfront through a wall of floor-to-ceiling glass doors across the poolside lanai.  Served by a powder room, this versatile gathering space flows openly into the dining room, the chef's kitchen, and the family/breakfast room where glass walls continue across the waterside lanai.  Separated from the dining room by a built-in buffet/wet bar with wine cooler, the high-end kitchen blends classic and modern style with coastal-inspired maple cabinetry, quartz counters, and an immense island/bar.  Perfect for the epicure, the Thermador appliances include a 48-inch dual-fuel range, separate refrigerator and freezer, and wine cooler.  Across the foyer, the VIP suite opens to the waterfront lanai and has a full bath that doubles as the cabana bath.

Second Floor:  In the dramatic bridge hallway, double doors enter the relaxing master suite in a large front-to-back wing.  Glass doors open to a view-filled waterside balcony from the suite's window-lined bedroom and adjoining office/exercise room.  Customized wardrobe rooms are placed on either side of the luxe spa-like master bath featuring a mosaic-inlaid marble floor, jetted tub, frameless-glass multi-head shower, and two separate water closets.  Across the hall are three more bedrooms with walk-in closets and en-suite baths.  Two of these bedrooms open to the waterside balcony, while the other opens to its own balcony above the front garden.
