353 Sunset
Homes for Sale in Fort Lauderdale, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
This is a waterfront enclave on the Intracoastal in Fort Lauderdale where the median closed price sits at $3.2 million and the median time to contract is 475 days. With only three closings in the trailing window, you're looking at a small, illiquid pocket where pricing is heavily condition- and location-specific within the community itself.
The market here is patient. Sellers need to be realistic about both price and timeline; buyers have time to evaluate and negotiate, but inventory is scarce enough that the right property won't wait forever. This is not a turn-and-flip market—it's a hold-and-live waterfront play for someone who knows exactly what they want.
The 60-Second Overview
353 Sunset market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $3.20M ($862 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 475 days on market for closed sales.
A small Intracoastal community in Fort Lauderdale where waterfront land and privacy command the price, and where the limited turnover means every transaction is its own negotiation.
Who 353 Sunset is best for.
Best for
- Waterfront buyers with budgets in the mid-seven figures who prioritize Intracoasial access and are comfortable with a patient search and contract process.
- Buyers prepared to renovate or build on a premium lot and hold long enough for the investment to make sense.
- Purchasers who value privacy and scarcity over walkability, amenities, or a deep resale pool.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need to close quickly or expect a liquid resale market with predictable timelines.
- Investors targeting turnover or rental income—this is an owner-occupant, long-hold market.
- Anyone hoping for neighborhood amenities, a community feel, or a broad selection of inventory to compare.

The 353 Sunset buying strategy.
If we were buying in 353 Sunset today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in 353 Sunset.
Waterfront scarcity and patient capital
The median of $3.2 million reflects direct Intracoastal access, not a neighborhood premium. Homes here vary widely in condition, age, and lot configuration, so the spread between a dated original and a new build or full renovation is substantial. The 475-day median time on market tells you this is a considered purchase—buyers are deliberate, and sellers who price aggressively from the start wait a long time for correction.
With only three closings in the recent window, there's no volume to smooth out idiosyncrasies. Each sale is a one-off negotiation shaped by the specific dock, view corridor, lot size, and finishes. If you're a buyer, you have time to underwrite every detail; if you're a seller, you need a broker who can articulate your property's specific advantages and price it to the market that actually exists, not the one you wish were there.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in 353 Sunset. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a micro-market like this, you need a broker who prices to actual comps, not aspirational ones, and who knows when to walk away from a listing that won't price rationally. We'll tell you if your renovation budget makes sense for the location, and we'll never push you into a bidding war that isn't there. Our job is to get you to contract at a number that reflects the water, the lot, and the condition—nothing more, nothing less.
