THE NEIGHBORHOOD
COMMUNITY: Broward County’s best-kept secret for boaters and lifestyle, the neighborly small town with informal affluence, offers Lighthouse Point residents an easy-going quality of life. Yachting is a part of the lifestyle and essential to daily living in this boat lover’s paradise. 80 percent of its residential real estate is single-family homes, many of which are within 18 miles of the city’s waterways. This is a small town that wishes to remain just that and while it is a close-knit community, residents also value their privacy.
DAILY LIFE: The east door of Lighthouse Point opens to the Intracoastal Waterway, sitting under the beam of the famed Hillsboro Lighthouse which has stood constant guard over the Hillsboro Inlet since 1906 and for which the city is named. The west door of Lighthouse Point is Federal Highway or U.S. 1, with access to plenty of shopping and restaurants. The upscale Town Center Mall and Mizner Park, both in Boca Raton, are a little over 4 miles away. Along with the proximity to beaches and waterways, there are also 20 acres of parks and mini-parks and 13 miles of sidewalks and bike paths to enjoy the city’s green space.
