Imagine a small seaside village with snorkeling and diving right from its sandy shores, pristine blue-green waves lapping at the shore, and mild sun-drenched days. This describes the quaint town of Lauderdale-By-The-Sea, located between the Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean. With its famous coral reef, long wooden fishing pier, and refurbished streets, Lauderdale-By-The Sea attracts tourists by the thousands who want a taste of its charming, small-town way of life.
With 6,300 year-round residents and a peak-season population of 11,000, this tiny town is a place not only to vacation but to call home. Residents and visitors love frequenting Pelican Square, with its seaside sitting areas and striking sculpture of pelicans taking flight. After relaxing or people-watching, stroll over to the unique boutiques, shops, and restaurants to round out the perfect day. The town has undergone an aesthetic transformation recently with brick sidewalks, light fixtures, and sitting areas that bring out the small-town charm of this resort community. Of course, Lauderdale-By-The-Sea real estate is prized and widely known for its easily accessible living coral reef, located just 100 yards from shore. This colorful and thriving natural resource draws divers from all over the world, as does the remains of the shipwrecked SS Copenhagen, an 18th-century cargo ship. The town's long wooden fishing pier is a popular place to relax and fish and is picture-perfect with the Atlantic Ocean in the background.
Lauderdale-By-The-Sea real estate is always in high demand, but this area is primarily residential and offers homes in a range of prices and sizes. Its continued growth over the years has been tempered by restrictions on high-rise buildings to retain its charm and small-town atmosphere. With a median home price of about $585,000, Lauderdale-By-The-Sea attracts older couples and retirees as well as investors, although younger families are finding homes here as well. Seasonal homes and second homes are popular with homebuyers and condos often fit this purpose perfectly. Choose from oceanfront homes, luxury condos, modest single-family homes, and homes with access to deep water dockage. You're sure to find the home of your dreams in this lovely seaside community.
