Fort Lauderdale Canal Front Homes for Sale

Find the Fort Lauderdale waterfront home that fits your life, with the water access, the insurance and the offer worked through before you commit.

Live BeachesMLS listings matching this search in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, updated throughout the day.

Canal homes make up most of the waterfront housing in Fort Lauderdale, and the canal matters more than the house. Coral Ridge Isles, The Landings and Lauderdale Harbours sit on residential canals with ocean access, and the finger isles off Las Olas are canal lots with deeper water and wider turning room. Two canal homes of the same size can sell far apart depending on the width of the canal, the depth at low tide, whether the lot sits at the end or on a point, and how many bridges stand between the dock and the inlet. A point lot gets more water frontage and more breeze. Check the seawall, the dock permits and whether the canal has been dredged recently before you commit.
