Lauderdale Isles is a waterfront community in the southern section of Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, east of US-441 between Riverland Road and the South Fork New River. It is a boating neighborhood of single-family homes laid out on canals, with a neighborhood boat ramp.
The defining feature is the water access: homes have direct, no-fixed-bridge access to the Atlantic Ocean, with each isle leading to the South Fork New River and on to the historic New River. Homes typically offer around 65 feet of waterfront with private docks and lifts suited to yachts and fishing boats.
Because the water carries the value, the canal, the frontage, and the dockage drive price, and the housing stock is largely midcentury with a number of rebuilt and updated homes. The neighborhood is close to the airport, downtown Fort Lauderdale, beaches, and dining.
Diligence centers on the water and the home. Confirm the canal, the dockage and water depth, the no-fixed-bridge access for the boat you own or plan to buy, the seawall condition, the flood zone and insurance, and the condition of an older home. Price by water frontage and dockage, then condition, not by the neighborhood name.
