Livermore Estates
Homes for Sale in Fort Lauderdale, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Livermore Estates trades at a $1.7M median on $673/SF, a price point that reflects Fort Lauderdale's top-tier estate inventory—waterfront access, large lots, and renovated mid-century builds or recent custom construction. That per-square-foot figure is rational for estate-scale homes; older stock with deferred maintenance will sit below the median, while anything with intracoastal or ocean proximity and contemporary finishes will push well above it.
Forty-one days to contract and just three closings in the past quarter signal a thin, deliberate market. Sellers here are not chasing offers, and buyers are conducting full due diligence—survey, seawall, mechanicals. If you're writing an offer, expect negotiation; if you're listing, price and condition have to be demonstrably correct or the home will age on market.
The 60-Second Overview
Livermore Estates market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $1.70M ($673 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 41 days on market for closed sales.
Livermore Estates is a low-density Fort Lauderdale enclave where the $1.7M median reflects estate lots, waterfront potential, and the scarcity premium that comes with Broward's finite inventory of large-parcel single-family homes.
Who Livermore Estates is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a $1.7M+ budget who value lot size, waterfront potential, and architectural control over shared amenities.
- Investors or principal buyers prepared to hold through a renovation cycle and manage permitting, marine work, and deferred systems.
- Second-home or relocation buyers who want Fort Lauderdale access with estate privacy and are comfortable with slower liquidity.
Probably not for
- Buyers seeking a move-in-ready home with predictable monthly fees and no construction management.
- First-time estate buyers without contractor relationships or capital reserves for seawall, HVAC, and roof work that older inventory will require.
- Anyone prioritizing walkable amenities, community social structure, or quick resale timelines—this market rewards patience, not urgency.

The Livermore Estates buying strategy.
If we were buying in Livermore Estates 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 Livermore Estates.
Estate inventory, estate timelines
This is not a subdivision with a homeowners' association or a trail system. Livermore Estates is a collection of large single-family parcels, many with water access or the bones of older Florida estate homes that have been selectively renovated or rebuilt. The median price reflects that scale: you're buying land, location, and the opportunity to control your environment.
The 41-day median time to contract is slower than Fort Lauderdale's tighter waterfront pockets, and the three closings over three months tell you this is a market driven by individual circumstances—estates coming out of probate, sellers waiting for the right number, buyers conducting architect walks before they write. Condition variance is wide; some homes are investor-ready, others are land plays with a teardown.
You will not find community amenities or a pool clubhouse. What you get is privacy, proximity to Fort Lauderdale's beach and cultural corridor, and the flexibility to improve or redevelop on your own timeline. The per-square-foot median of $673 is a blended number across that spectrum—trust your inspection and your contractor more than any list price.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Livermore Estates. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
