About this home

Exceptional Sailboat Bend investment opportunity featuring two fully separate residences, each offering the privacy and feel of a standalone home! The front 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence boasts an inviting layout and spacious fenced patio ideal for entertaining. Tucked privately in the rear, the beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage features its own entrance, dedicated laundry room and expansive fenced yard. With separate outdoor living spaces and private parking, this unique property offers incredible versatility for owner-occupants, multigenerational living or income-producing opportunities. Ideally situated just minutes from Las Olas Boulevard, Downtown Fort Lauderdale, Riverwalk and Brightline. A rare opportunity to enjoy flexibility and investment potential! This configuration creates possibilities far beyond a conventional duplex. An owner can occupy one residence while using the other for visitors, extended living arrangements, a private workspace, seasonal accommodations or potential rental income, subject to regulations and approvals. Investors gain two distinct living environments without sacrificing the privacy that often disappears in traditional multifamily layouts. Because access, parking and outdoor areas are independently arranged, daily life in either residence can feel separate. The property's outdoor spaces further distinguish the experience. The front patio creates a welcoming setting for morning coffee, open-air dining and gatherings, while the large rear yard provides room to relax, garden, play or enjoy time with pets. Fencing around both areas adds definition and allows each household to use its exterior space independently. This combination of private interiors and dedicated outdoor areas gives the property the character of a residential compound rather than a standard two-unit arrangement. The location adds another layer of convenience. Historic Sailboat Bend is known for its tree-lined streets, eclectic architecture and established neighborhood atmosphere, all remarkably close to Fort Lauderdale's urban core. The Broward Center for the Performing Arts, restaurants, coffee shops, nightlife and everyday conveniences are nearby, with major roadways and Fort Lauderdale Beach within easy reach. Whether heading to a show, dining along Las Olas, walking the Riverwalk or catching a Brightline train, residents can enjoy quick access to many of the city's most popular destinations. This is a compelling option for buyers who want a primary home with a genuinely separate guest residence, those seeking space for a hybrid work-and-live arrangement, or investors looking for adaptable residential income potential. It also allows future owners to change how the property functions as their needs evolve—without compromising privacy between the two residences. Few properties combine this degree of separation, outdoor space, central location and versatility while retaining the warmth and character of a neighborhood setting. The result is a rare Sailboat Bend opportunity offering the freedom to live in one residence, use both, or enjoy the entire property as one private urban retreat.

Before You Make an Offer

How to analyze a rental property

Selling a Rental or Small Multifamily Property?

Investors buying duplexes, triplexes and rented homes ask for the rent roll, the leases, the expenses and the condition, and several have told BreakThru Realty what they want to buy. If you own an income property, a broker can compare it with those requirements and explain how a sale with the tenants in place would work.

BreakThru Realty works with hundreds of prequalified buyers searching for properties. Before you list, a broker reviews what you own, the market around it and whether an existing buyer's requirements match. If none does, you see how we would position it to reach other qualified buyers.

A potential match is a conversation, not an offer, until the buyer sees your property and makes one. No buyer is named and nothing about your property or business is shared until you decide to proceed.
