Boaters and water lovers, take note. This Fort Lauderdale masterpiece offers 122 feet of New River frontage and a slip that accommodates a 38-foot vessel, with a glass-wrapped, residence of more than 6,800 square feet that’s part gallery, part tropical playground.
Listed for $12.5 million with Chad Carroll of The Chad Carroll Group at Compass, every angle offers a view—whether it’s the glittering downtown skyline, the serene Intracoastal Waterway, or your own private slice of the river. But it’s not just an architectural showpiece; it’s a lifestyle: think floating through rooms bathed in clear sunlight, entertaining with the sparkling water as the backdrop, or simply sipping coffee in your robe while boats drift past.
Walls of glass and soaring ceilings let the Florida sun bathe the house’s common areas in natural light, while four bedrooms—including two primary suites—give everyone space to stretch out. The main suite is basically a private spa, complete with boutique-style closets, while the designer kitchen flows into both the formal and casual living areas that open to the water. A home office, an elevator, and a two-car collector’s garage ensure the residence is as functional as it is striking.
The living room’s floor-to-ceiling windows give it an intimate connection to the outdoors.

Encompassing more than half an acre, the grounds feel effortlessly elevated with a sleek infinity-edge pool sheathed in azure mosaic tiles, a summer kitchen, and lush gardens. The design balances privacy with seamless access to the water, making it easy to host friends, enjoy quiet mornings, or take in the river views.
Once considered Miami’s quieter sibling, Fort Lauderdale has emerged as a serious player in the luxury real estate market with a median home price of $599,900 as of August 2025—compared with Miami’s $625,000, which is down 3.8% year-over-year. Coupled with world-class beaches, an international yachting culture, and well-connected transport systems, the city is redefining what high-end South Florida living can look like.

Developments like Viceroy Residences and Riva Residenze are fueling the city’s rise. The Viceroy towers blend cocktail culture with nostalgia, featuring the Sound Bar lounge, curated vinyl collections, and rare spirits for residents. Private wine cellar storage, exclusive lounges, and lifestyle-focused amenities deliver a sense of club-level living without leaving home.
Meanwhile, Riva Residenze brings the DNA of the iconic Italian yacht brand to Fort Lauderdale’s Intracoastal waterfront. Designed by superyacht interior designer Giuseppina Arena, the project features 36 residences—including two 8,000-square-foot penthouses—polished mahogany finishes, signature aquamarine accents, and a marina for yachts up to 65 feet. Prices start at $3.5 million, and the complex is scheduled for completion in 2028.
