6501 SW 16th St North Lauderdale, FL 33068

No, it's not an island retreat, it's your new pool home! This impeccably maintained and updated abode is your one-way ticket to paradise every day. The roof was replaced in 2016 and the electric panel is new. A beautiful new U-shaped driveway makes parking a breeze; there's even plenty of room for your boat or RV. Double-paned, hurricane-rated impact windows in the front both add curb appeal and peace of mind. Inside, the name of the game is "flexible living space", with a spacious open floor plan that includes two bonus rooms. The bigger of the two is just off the kitchen with newer wood-look tile; it would make an excellent home gym, playroom, office, or even another bedroom - the sky's the limit! New large-scale white tile graces the floors of the living area, while designer light fixtures keep everything brightly illuminated. The living and dining rooms are expansive and allow ample space for entertaining. But the crown jewel in this residence is the gorgeous kitchen, remodeled in 2020. Gleaming granite tops the counters and the center island, and there's lots of cabinet space. Stainless steel appliances are both beautiful and functional. The generous primary bedroom hosts the full bathroom with a standalone shower. There is plumbing already in place in the laundry room for a potential 2nd bathroom, should you decide that your private retreat needs another. Island time begins right around the time you head through the back door and out to your tropical tiki lounge in the fenced backyard! Sip umbrella-topped cocktails in the shade of the covered patio until you're ready to hit the blue waters of the above-ground swimming pool. Two sheds round out the outdoor space and bolster your storage capacity. There are no HOA fees or restrictions in this neighborhood. North Lauderdale is an incredible location with tons of nearby amenities, including schools, local markets, shopping plazas, dining, and community parks. Although it's closed to the public currently for renovation, the Chase Stadium is less than 5 miles away; this soccer stadium is hosting the ICC Men's T20 World Cup later on this year. There's always something fun to do, including some unique attractions like Butterfly World, Harrah's Pompano Beach Casino, or the Fort Lauderdale Swap Shop, which offers a 14-screen drive-in theater! Sun, sandy beaches, and foamy waves are less than 30 minutes to the east. You're only minutes away from US-441 and an entrance to the Florida Turnpike; and you're centrally located between I-75 and I-95 so you'll have easy access to virtually anywhere in the state, including Hollywood, Miami, Coral Springs, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, and beyond. Private showings are available, your oasis awaits!
