This mid-century home is directly across the street from five-acre Hortt Park. The home was renovated since purchase in 2010, with new hurricane impact windows, new roof, new awnings, new ceiling fans, new concrete driveway, new landscaping in the front yard, new stainless refrigerator, dishwasher, and gas range. All the interior doors were replaced, with new door hardware. All the interior trim was replaced. The flooring was refinished throughout the entire house with original terrazzo in the kitchen and living area, real tongue-and-groove heart of pine flooring from Georgia (not a laminate!) in a third bedroom and on the sun porch, and carpet over terrazzo in two bedrooms. Hortt Park is less than five years old, with a new community center, exercise equipment, new beach volleyball court, new half court basketball, softball field, new children's playground, new wood-chip walking path, new concrete walking path and very old shade trees. The park hosts an Easter Egg Hunt, and monthly movie night with projected films on a large screen. The roughly five acre Bill Keith Preserve is located in Shady Banks on the New River. The preserve was recently renovated with new parking, wood-chip paths, and a boardwalk. It is possible to launch a kayak, canoe, or paddle board from a sandy beach in the preserve. The home has a saltwater swimming pool with a fully screened pool deck and tropical yard. The screened deck has a few hundred square feet of covered space for outside leisure and entertainment. The home is conveniently located three minutes from I-95 and I-595, ten minutes from the beach, and five minutes from downtown Fort Lauderdale. Shady Banks is a one way in, one way out neighborhood with no through traffic. Neighbors are very friendly and there are walkers, joggers, skaters, and bikers. Kids play outdoors in a safe environment. The home is outside the FEMA floodplain ... flood insurance is not required.
