1108 N. Rio Vista Blvd., Fort Lauderdale, Florida

3 Bedrooms, 2 Full Baths


$1,195,000

There exists but a few select streets in Fort Lauderdale that perfectly represent the character of old South Florida, its unique charms, a mixture of Mediterranean-style architecture, lush foliage and stately grandeur. At the very top of this list is Rio Vista Boulevard which winds its way along the banks of historic New River through the exclusive neighborhood of Rio Vista.

While homes on the boulevard's waterfront command values upwards of $5,000,000, they share the street with neighbors across the way which are a bit more affordable. This home is one such example.

Built in the style of Addison Mizner and Francis Abreu, the home's portico entrance is supported by majestic and well-proportioned columns that frame mature tropical plantings beside the walkway. Approaching the front door is the start of a great unfolding, as we discover the many lovely assets and special touches this house possesses in abundance.

One such example is the large, circular, picture window that graces the private staircase to the master suite. Stepping into each room is like entering the gallery of a personal collection, with prized pieces being revealed one painting at a time. This home is focused, cozy, yet could also be quite a showplace, without being overstated. Such appointments as marble flooring and crown moldings are found throughout the first floor.


Ascending into the private retreat of the master suite, occupying the entire second floor, is another revelatory moment. High beamed ceilings and a large outdoor balcony deck make this part of the house a place you'll never want to leave. Views of the colorful landscaping abound through each window. Directly below is found the quiet sanctuary of the brick patio and terraced pool with integrated hot tub. This home is truly a one-of-a-kind find in Rio Vista and deserves the special attention of a tour.
