Your day begins at 3057 NE 16th Avenue, Oakland Park, FL 33334. This updated waterfront home offers 4 bedrooms and 3 baths across 1,810 sq ft, built in 1956. Bright, open living spaces feature sliding glass doors that lead to a newly tiled private pool and serene canal views. With 78 feet of frontage and a renovated dock, you have direct access to the water from your backyard.
Weekdays flow effortlessly from this Oakland Park location. Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Beach is a quick 5-minute drive for morning strolls. For downtown activities, Fort Lauderdale's Las Olas Boulevard and the Brightline station are both just 6 minutes away. Evenings might take you north to Downtown Pompano Beach, a roughly 9-minute drive, offering a change of pace without a long commute.
When dining out calls, you have a wealth of options. Las Olas Boulevard's restaurant row invites you with its sidewalk tables, steakhouses, sushi, and Italian fare along a walkable mile. For a more casual, beachfront experience, Anglin's Fishing Pier and its beach village provide casual seafood and pizza, with easy parking on weekdays. For an upscale evening, Casa D'Angelo Ristorante offers Chef Angelo Elia's acclaimed Tuscan cuisine, known for handmade pasta.
Your cultural calendar can be as rich as you wish. NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale showcases modern and contemporary exhibitions downtown, a block from Las Olas, often quieter on weekday mornings. The Broward Center for the Performing Arts hosts touring Broadway shows, symphonies, and comedy on the New River. And several weekends between November and March, the Las Olas Art Fair and other seasonal street shows transform Las Olas Boulevard into an outdoor gallery.
Nature is always close at hand. Fort Lauderdale Beach and the A1A promenade offer two miles of lifeguarded sand, complete with a wave wall and bike lanes. For a greener escape, Hugh Taylor Birch State Park spans 180 acres of hammock, a lagoon perfect for kayaks, and a tunnel under A1A to the beach, providing ample shade. Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park presents a quieter beach experience, with the Intracoastal on the other side, offering kayak rentals and picnic pavilions.
Weekends are for family and fun. The Young At Art Museum provides make-and-play art studios, an indoor and air-conditioned haven for children. Xtreme Action Park offers indoor go-karts, a roller rink, bowling, and a ropes course under one roof, ideal for teens. For younger children, local libraries host free weekday story times, and many Broward County parks feature free splash pads, perfect for cooling off.
The convenience of your waterfront home is evident. A renovated dock is ready for your vessel, with 78 feet of frontage. We can verify the usable dock length, water depth at mean low water, vessel air draft, and bridge clearances to confirm your specific boating needs for ocean access from your property.
