A day in the life
Your morning begins at 2300 NE 16th Avenue, Wilton Manors, FL 33305, a charming home built in 1956. This 1,690 sq ft residence offers three comfortable bedrooms and two baths. Nestled in Wilton Manors' sought-after Edgewater Estates, on a quiet cul-de-sac and across from waterfront homes, you might start your day with a refreshing dip in your private pool, just steps from your back door.
During the week, your commute is remarkably convenient. Downtown Fort Lauderdale, including the vibrant Las Olas area, is just a five-minute drive, as is Fort Lauderdale Beach. For those traveling further, the Brightline Fort Lauderdale Station is also about five minutes away. If your work takes you north, Downtown Pompano Beach is approximately a ten-minute drive.
When it’s time to dine, you have a wealth of choices nearby. Las Olas Boulevard restaurant row offers a mile of sidewalk tables, steakhouses, sushi, and Italian cuisine. For a more casual experience by the ocean, Anglin's Fishing Pier and its beach village provide seafood and pizza just steps from the sand. For an upscale evening, Casa D'Angelo Ristorante by Chef Angelo Elia is known for its handmade pasta and white truffle dishes.
For cultural enrichment, NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale offers modern and contemporary shows downtown, and it's particularly tranquil on weekday mornings. The Broward Center for the Performing Arts hosts touring Broadway shows, symphony performances, and comedy. You can also explore the Las Olas Art Fair and seasonal street shows, which transform Las Olas Boulevard into an outdoor gallery several weekends between November and March.
Embrace the outdoors with Fort Lauderdale Beach and its A1A promenade, offering two miles of lifeguarded sand, bike lanes, and hotels. Hugh Taylor Birch State Park provides 180 acres of hammock and a lagoon perfect for kayaking, with a tunnel under A1A leading to the beach. Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park offers quiet beaches and Intracoastal access, complete with kayak rentals and picnic pavilions.
Weekends bring opportunities for family fun and relaxation. You might spend a day outdoors at Colohatchee Park or one of the nearby beaches. For a more active adventure with children, Jungle Island Mini Golf & Fun Park offers entertainment. For the younger ones, Young At Art Museum provides engaging, hands-on art studios, while teens might enjoy Xtreme Action Park, with go-karts, a roller rink, bowling, and a ropes course all under one roof. Local libraries offer free story times for babies and toddlers, and most splash pads are free to enjoy.
This home offers a life of convenience, culture, and coastal charm. To discover if this could be your new address, I invite you to tour this exceptional property with Simon Gedz, your trusted realtor since 1995.
