As you pull up to your automatic electric all
aluminum entrance gate you realize you are about to leave the stress and the
worries of the hustle bustle world behind as you enter 31 Fort Royal Isle, a
point lot of 300 waterfront feet in Bermuda Riviera just off A1A in Fort
Lauderdale Florida.
This stunning point lot home of 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms, all on one level,
has
everything you will need to enjoy the good life in South Florida. The Swiss
owners did a total remodel in 2001. The floors in the entire home are crema
marfil marble excepting the bedrooms. All of the windows and doors are of high
impact hurricane resistant construction. The views of the water are everywhere
yet you have a surprising level of privacy as a result of the extensive
landscaping. They have created a real tropical paradise, with lighting, sound
system and paver walkways around the entire 1/2 acre estate.
The 300 feet of water frontage is divided equally, with 150 feet being directly
on the Intracoastal Waterway and 150 feet being on the side canal. The main dock
measures 90 feet after which there is a 20,000 lbs. boat lift. If your needs
required you could reconfigure and be able to keep up to 125 foot yacht. Very
few private homes have that capacity. There are multiple outdoor sitting areas
for your use, including one right on the point under the shade of your beautiful
landmark fig tree. Additionally there are 2 wonderful covered patios, one off of
the living & master rooms and one adjacent to the kitchen and family room. They
are further protected by four electrically operated Swiss made awnings. This
home is truly set up for indoor-outdoor enjoyment.
The
location of this home couldn't be better either. Approximately 3 -4 blocks to
the Atlantic Ocean, just an easy stroll or bike ride. If golf is your pleasure
you are only minutes to the Coral Ridge Country Club, just across the
Intracoastal on Bayview Drive. Shopping? No problem. Just a 10 minute drive to
the Galleria Mall on Sunrise Blvd., with everything from Neiman-Marcus and
Macy’s to scores of fine stores and great restaurants such as Capitol Grill,
Seasons 52 and P.F. Chang's, to name just a few. Also the airport should only
take you 20 minutes at the most. Also the quaint charm of Lauderdale by the Sea
is only 5 minute away, with its fishing pier, beach and restaurants. It really
doesn't get any better than this!
Let me describe the home itself. Your main entrance is thru your spectacular
solid wood Swiss made double door. As you enter, to your right is your home
office/library. With built in bookcase this is all you could ask for in a home
office space. It measures 18'x13' and has a lovely view of the front garden.
Just across the entry hall is the formal dining room which the current owners
use as a second living space. It is also 18'x13'. Entering straight ahead is the
formal living room, an oversized room with vaulted ceilings measuring 22'x18'.
The large sliders afford great views to the pool and the waterway immediately
upon entering. To the right of the living room are 4 of the 5 bedrooms, the 5th
being on the opposite side of the house. Perfect for a family and a live in
housekeeper/nanny, as the separation is perfect.
The
master bedroom is quite large, 26'x14', with intracoastal/pool views and a door
right out to the center patio. There is also something everyone dreams about;
his and hers separate bathrooms! His and hers closets too of course. There is
also a floor safe in his closet for your valuables. Large windows in each shower
allow you the enjoyment of your garden with complete privacy.
The kitchen/family room area is really terrific as well. Light and bright, it
really affords you the best views of your property and the water. The current
owners have their formal dining table in what would/could be the family room so
as to enjoy the water views when they entertain their guests. You have multiple
options in this area; the formal table, the counter around the kitchen or the
breakfast/casual dining area off to the left side. In this area you will find
your bar accessories, glasses etc., eurocave wine cooler (approx. 100 bottles)
and 2 refrigerated drawers for beer/soft drink/water storage. The kitchen boasts
miele dishwasher and cooktop, thermador double oven and kitchen-aide built-in
style fridge. There is also a back-up fridge in the garage (which is tiled and
air-conditioned!
Descriptions serve a purpose of course, but as good as it all sounds you really
have to come and see this home to get the whole picture. The feeling in this
home is truly special and unlike the rest of the comparable properties in this
price range. The current owners have lovingly cared for this home for the past
12 years and this will be apparent when you visit. He is a Swiss
architect/builder and as such, things are done right and if anything needs
attention it gets it immediately. For example, the gutters are copper not
aluminum.
This is truly a special, one of a kind home that you will enjoy for years to
come. I look forward to hearing from you and taking you to see 31 Ft Royal Isle.
