Lighthouse Point, FL Real Estate & Homes For Sale

Lighthouse Point Real Estate

An idyllic destination to settle down and raise a family or invest in a vacation home.

“It is the best-kept secret in South Florida” for the well to do, savvy, well-traveled, unpretentious residents who proudly yet quietly say this! This is Lighthouse Point, the small conclave tucked in like a treasured pearl at the Hillsboro Inlet. By smart design in the 1960s, Florida’s premier Venetian canal network was built alongside neighbor Pompano Beach, with culturally rich Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton to the south and north respectively.

So over the last half-century, it is has blossomed like no other place in the world: beautiful homes across the maze of canals, a select hundred plus estate mansions on the Intracoastal, allowing the boating, fishing and view loving residents to blitz their way to the inlet and the nearby Atlantic Gulfstream.

Then add Lighthouse Point Marina with its provisioning role for all and its coveted restaurants that most arrive at by boat: Cap’s Place which was Al Capone’s secret rum-running hideout during Prohibition and then a clandestine meeting place for President Roosevelt and Winston Churchill with their submarines just past the Point’s Lighthouse. Then there is our next favorite, the dog and boat friendly Nauti-Dog.

At One Sotheby’s our savvy team leads the way in Lighthouse Point, bringing insight and value to the sale of these gems, respecting their magical nature while quietly showcasing them to waterfront and boating aficionados coming to South Florida looking their special piece of paradise on the water!
