An overview of the Sunrise Intracoastal neighborhood located in Fort Lauderdale, FL.
A high-end neighborhood on the Fort Lauderdale coast
Sunrise Intracoastal is an upscale neighborhood conveniently located among the canals of coastal Fort Lauderdale. From their private docks, homeowners have direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway. And while three sides of the neighborhood are on the waterfront, the other is home to The Galleria at Fort Lauderdale, a sprawling boutique shopping center within walking distance for all residents. “The people who live in this area do so because there’s high-end stuff everywhere,” says Thomas Neiswenter, a real estate agent with Keller Williams who has been selling South Florida properties for 17 years. He says that being minutes from the beach and close to downtown are additional selling points. “It’s just a sexy area. People want to be there, if they can afford it,” he says.”

A peninsula filled with high-value homes
A variety of condominium options and single-family homes make up the neighborhood’s housing. Established condo complexes offer one- and two-bedroom units typically priced between $250,000 and $850,000. Newer luxury units along the waterfront list in the mid-$2 millions. All condos offer community pools, and the newer units feature additional amenities such as doormen and private elevators. Neiswenter says many of the neighborhood’s offerings are secondary homes for those who are investing in the area as much as the property. “Ultimately, what most people want is appreciation,” he says. “Everything in the long run goes up in value.” Home prices are determined by size and proximity to the Intracoastal Waterway. Inland homes range from $1.5 million to $3.3 million. Most feature in-ground pools. Larger homes along the canals that lead directly to the Intracoastal, which typically offer private boat docks, range in price from $8.5 to $15 million. Exclusive waterfront mansions sell from $25 million to almost $50 million. These massive estates offer at least 10,000 square feet of interior space and feature luxury amenities such as yacht slips. The neighborhood faces a high risk of flooding, and wind damage is an additional concern during hurricane season. Residents pay higher insurance premiums as a result.
Residents enjoy access to the Atlantic Ocean and Fort Lauderdale Beach
There are no fixed bridges between residents' backyards and the nearby Atlantic Ocean, making the neighborhood a boater's paradise. Watercraft enthusiasts can rent kayaks at George English Park, a recreation center that also offers tennis courts and a baseball field. Fort Lauderdale Beach is directly across the Intracoastal, providing a convenient spot to enjoy relaxing on the beach. Fishing and canoeing are popular activities at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park. Neiswenter points out that because there is no development in state parks, the area will always offer appealing ocean views. Visitors also can enjoy hiking, biking and bird-watching along a network of trails.

Seasons 52, The Capital Grille among upscale eateries at The Galleria
Retail recreation is never more than short trip away. “People love The Galleria because of all the restaurants and high-end shopping,” Neiswenter says. The sprawling mall contains more than 100 retailers, including Macy’s, Apple and Sephora. There’s also a Publix nearby. Seasons 52, a New American restaurant featuring rotating menus, Lasso Gaucho Brazilian Steakhouse and The Capital Grille are highlights of the surrounding eateries. Anna’s Coffee Shop is a popular café near the beach. The Bonnet House Museum & Gardens is a historical landmark nearby. Built in 1920, this scenic estate is dedicated to environmental preservation and a celebration of the arts. Birding, painting and yoga classes as well as special holiday events are held there throughout the year. Downtown Fort Lauderdale is only 3 miles from the neighborhood. Restaurants, boutique shops and museums are all concentrated along Las Olas Boulevard.
