Even for Units that have the same number of Bedrooms, significant differences exist so far as their size in square feet and Floor Plans. Views are also, obviously, one of the most important considerations. Some Units offer beautiful, direct Oceanfront views without obstruction and others offer very limited Ocean views. In addition to Ocean views, other available views include Intracoastal and City views, which are especially beautiful at night.
Ft. Lauderdale’s New Oceanfront Condo Market
Within the last 5 years, Coconut Grove is the only new direct Oceanfront Condo that was constructed in Ft. Lauderdale. Within the last 12 years, only 4 direct Oceanfront Condos were constructed in Ft. Lauderdale, so inventory of new Condos on the Sand in Ft. Lauderdale is very limited. The other 3 “new” Oceanfront Condos are L’Hermitage, The Palms, and L’Ambiance. There are a few other new Condos that were constructed in the Beach area, but they are across from the Beach instead of directly on it.
