About Waterfront
The distinction between Luxury homes
in South Florida and Luxury Waterfront,
for most people, is simple…water
adjacency. Price point and choosing a
home for many is determined by proximity
to the Atlantic Ocean and the various
waterways. These homes, offering to some
the best in location, access to the
Atlantic, and other features, are
naturally priced higher which may affect
buyer’s decisions.
The Atlantic Ocean and access to the
Caribbean, Virgin Islands, Bermuda and
more, are an enticing allure of
Southeast Florida living for many.
Subsequently, the homes located closest
to the Ocean and with the least number
of “obstacles” (fixed bridges or height
of bridges) to reach these destinations
are very important to consider before
buying a home, whether it be a
condominium, town home, or single
family. If there are fixed bridges, then
the size of your boat or yacht become
extremely relevant. Waterway maps may
help guide us to advise you of these
considerations, however certain
subdivisions and areas are known to have
either only direct access, no fixed
bridges or a mixture.
Generally speaking, for avid boaters
who will regularly utilize the waterways
to reach the Atlantic, “Ocean Access, No
fixed bridges” is a critical feature and
clearly defined should mean direct
access to the Ocean without these
obstacles. Even still, there are homes
with no fixed bridges, which are still
relatively far from the Atlantic, so
time to navigate and distance from the
Atlantic and Inter-Coastal waterway are
also considerations. For some, who may
only care for the serenity and
tranquility of living on the water more
than access to the Ocean, then lakes,
canals with fixed bridges, or other
waterfront options may offer attractive
options.
There is nothing, within reason, for
an avid boater like direct access to the
Ocean via the Inter-Coastal waterway, or
from an oceanfront luxury waterfront
home. For a more specific evaluation of
your personal needs relative to options
and pricing, a personal consultation is
recommended.
