A day in the life
Your day begins at 520 San Marco Drive, a Reimagined Farmhouse Modern-inspired deepwater estate, fresh from a multi-year renovation and expansion, anticipated in 2025. This home, built in 2001, offers 6 bedrooms and 8 baths across 6,363 square feet, featuring a private pool and sited on 100 +/- feet of waterfrontage on the Luna Canal in the prestigious South Las Olas Isles.
Weekday rhythms here are defined by convenience. Fort Lauderdale Beach, Downtown Fort Lauderdale / Las Olas, and the Brightline Fort Lauderdale Station are all about a 3-minute drive away, streamlining your morning commute. Even Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood Intl (FLL) is a mere 7-minute drive, connecting you effortlessly to wider travel.
Evenings offer a range of culinary delights. You might choose Mastro's Ocean Club for steak and seafood on the Intracoastal, or Eddie V's Prime Seafood for dinner accompanied by live jazz in the V Lounge. For a more casual or varied experience, Las Olas Boulevard restaurant row offers sidewalk tables, steakhouses, sushi, and Italian along a walkable mile. Other options include Casa D'Angelo Ristorante for upscale Tuscan dishes or Timpano Italian Chophouse for a supper-club style Italian steakhouse with live entertainment on weekend nights. After dinner, cocktails await at Rooftop @1WLO for skyline views above Las Olas or The Wilder for speakeasy-style craft cocktails.
Cultural enrichment is readily accessible. The NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale presents modern and contemporary shows downtown, often quiet on weekday mornings. For performing arts, the Broward Center for the Performing Arts hosts touring Broadway, symphony, and comedy. You can also explore the Las Olas Art Fair and seasonal street shows, outdoor juried art events that frequently take over Las Olas Boulevard.
For moments of fresh air and activity, Fort Lauderdale Beach and the A1A promenade provide miles of sand, a wave wall, and bike lanes. Hugh Taylor Birch State Park offers 180 acres of hammock, a lagoon for kayaking, and a tunnel under A1A to the beach. You can also walk the Riverwalk along the New River, then take the water taxi between downtown, Las Olas, and the beach.
Weekends are full of options. You might visit the Museum of Discovery and Science or the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. The Las Olas Art Fair, seasonal street shows, and the FAT Village Arts District offer artistic exploration, with galleries like New River Fine Art providing further inspiration. Shopping is convenient at The Galleria at Fort Lauderdale, the Las Olas Boulevard Shopping District, or the Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale Antique Car & Farmers Market. Family fun can be found at Xtreme Action Park, with indoor go-karts, a roller rink, and a ropes course, or Sky Zone Trampoline Park. The AutoNation IMAX Theater at MODS provides a unique cinematic experience.
Your home on the Luna Canal offers enviable deepwater access. With often 80–100+ feet of private seawall, it's designed to accommodate a boat up to 80 feet. There are no bridges on the primary route to the inlet at Port Everglades, providing direct access to the open water, though specific depth should be verified at the individual slip at mean low water.
