A rare opportunity to own one of Fort Lauderdale's most iconic waterfront estates. Privately gated in prestigious Idlewyld, this landmark residence spans more than 21,000 square feet and captures sweeping Intracoastal, ocean and skyline views. Its 159 feet of waterfront, 110-foot dock and accommodation for a vessel up to approximately 139 feet create an exceptional yachting setting. The estate offers 11 bedrooms, a separate VIP guest residence with its own gated entrance and impressive spaces for living, working and entertaining on a grand scale. A heated pool, rooftop terrace, elevator serving every level and covered parking for 10+ vehicles complete this iconic estate, ideally located seconds from Las Olas Boulevard and famed Fort Lauderdale Beach. Inside, a dramatic great room sets the tone for gracious entertaining, complemented by formal and casual dining spaces and a gourmet chef's kitchen designed for gatherings of every size. A state-of-the-art theater and fully equipped fitness center bring resort-level amenities into the home, while multiple executive offices offer remarkable flexibility for business, creative pursuits or quiet study. The expansive primary suite is conceived as a serene private retreat, and beautifully scaled secondary suites provide comfort for family and guests. Generous interiors flow naturally to expansive terraces, allowing celebrations and everyday moments to unfold against a constantly changing waterfront backdrop. From the spectacular rooftop, sunrise over the Atlantic gives way to glowing sunsets and sparkling downtown views, creating one of the property's most unforgettable vantage points. Outdoors, broad terraces surround the resort-style pool and invite year-round enjoyment beneath the South Florida sun. A rare sense of arrival defines every detail of this home. Every element of this exceptional compound has been arranged to balance impressive entertaining with privacy, comfort and ease. Its coveted setting places the best of Fort Lauderdale within effortless reach while preserving the seclusion of a private gated estate. Waterway depths can change. Buyers are responsible for verifying that water access meets their specific needs.
