About this home

This beautifully remodeled home offers the perfect combination of charm, space, and modern updates. Originally built as a 3-bedroom, 1-bath home, it was expanded in the 1970's with approximately 300 additional square feet (per previous owner) added to the rear under permit, creating a spacious extra living area with a full bathroom. The updated interior features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and stylish finishes throughout. The versatile addition provides endless possibilities for a family room, home office, guest suite, or entertainment space. Situated on a nice lot with a spacious backyard in Fort Lauderdale's desirable Progresso neighborhood, this home is conveniently located near downtown, Las Olas, shopping, dining, major highways, and the beach. A fantastic opportunity to own a move-in-ready home in a prime location!
