A premier boating community with no fixed bridges, stunning waterfront estates, and an intimate island atmosphere just minutes from Fort Lauderdale.

Lighthouse Point neighborhood
Overview

Where the boating lifestyle meets family living.

Lighthouse Point is a small, affluent city just north of Fort Lauderdale that feels like a private island community. With only about 11,000 residents, it offers an intimacy and sense of belonging that larger neighborhoods cannot match. The city is famous for its wide, deep canals with no fixed bridges — giving boaters of all sizes unrestricted ocean access. Maureen has sold some of her most notable properties here, including her current $4.475M listing at 2342 NE 26th Street, a stunning waterfront estate with private dockage. She understands the premium that canal depth, bridge clearance, and dock configuration command in this market.

One of the most photographed lighthouses in America sits at the entrance to the Hillsboro Inlet. Regular guided tours offer a rare glimpse inside this historic landmark.

Family-Oriented Community

Excellent schools, low crime, quiet tree-lined streets, and a small-town feel. Children ride bikes to school, neighbors know each other, and community events bring families together.
