Location
Casa Tarpon is situated in the prestigious Tarpon River neighborhood, an upscale enclave in Fort Lauderdale known for its tree-lined streets, charming parks, and riverfront ambiance. This “hidden gem” community offers a perfect blend of serenity and convenience – you’ll wake up to the sound of rustling palms and birds, yet the excitement of the city is only minutes away. Here, you can truly have it all: a quiet retreat in a peaceful residential area, with quick access to beaches, dining, and entertainment whenever you desire.
Las Olas Boulevard, the crown jewel of Fort Lauderdale’s social scene, lies just a five-minute drive from your door. Stroll along Las Olas to discover art galleries, designer boutiques, and award-winning restaurants. Enjoy a cappuccino at a sidewalk café in the morning, and return in the evening for a gourmet dinner or a vibrant nightlife atmosphere – all without compromising your privacy back at Casa Tarpon. For beach lovers, the golden sands of Fort Lauderdale Beach are a mere 3 miles away. Spend the day basking in the sun, swimming in the Atlantic, or walking along the beachfront promenade. When you’ve had your fill of the ocean, retreat to your private pool for a quiet swim away from the crowds.
For those who love the water, Casa Tarpon is moments from the city’s famed yachting marinas and the scenic Riverwalk. Charter a yacht for a day and explore the Intracoastal Waterway, often called the “Venice of America,” or take a leisurely sunset cruise – the marina is so close you can practically feel the ocean breeze from the house. Family-friendly attractions abound as well: within a 10-minute radius you’ll find the Museum of Discovery & Science (a hit with children and adults alike), the historic Stranahan House Museum, and beautiful parks along the New River where you can enjoy playgrounds or a picnic. Golf and tennis enthusiasts have top-tier facilities nearby, and the home’s convenient location offers easy drives to sports complexes and events in Greater Fort Lauderdale.
Despite being close to everything, Tarpon River maintains an exclusive, tranquil vibe. You can take a morning jog through quiet neighborhood streets, greet friendly locals walking their dogs, and admire the boats drifting by on the Tarpon River. A brand-new Whole Foods Market and other upscale grocery options are only blocks away, making it effortless to stock Casa Tarpon’s kitchen with gourmet provisions. And with Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport just a 10-minute drive, your arrival and departure are as smooth as your stay. In short, Casa Tarpon’s location provides a wealth of experiences: from sun and sand to shopping and culture – all easily accessible, yet returning each time to a private haven of luxury and peace.
