Meet Fort Lauderdale’s newest statement home: a triple-decker concrete fortress perched directly on the Middle River.
Listed for $14.995 million with Jonathan Vega of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, this modern compound spans two contiguous lots totaling 0.58 acre and delivers more than 205 feet of direct water frontage.
Elevated more than three feet above grade and supported by over 150 concrete piles, the residence was designed to endure winds exceeding 200 mph — while maintaining a sleek, sculptural aesthetic. Every inch of its 8,315-square-foot interior fuses resilience with refined design.
Constructed as a poured-concrete structure, the home was designed from the ground up to merge architectural beauty with coastal resilience.
Elevated above the floodplain and anchored deep into the earth by 150 concrete piles, it’s as secure as it is striking — capable of withstanding winds over 200 mph.
Inside, materials were chosen as much for their craftsmanship as for their durability. A floating staircase and custom millwork from Milan lend sculptural elegance, while motorized Sky-Frame sliding glass pocket doors imported from Switzerland disappear at the touch of a button (or smartphone), erasing the boundary between indoors and out.
The entire third floor serves as a private primary suite, featuring panoramic water views and a wraparound terrace that stretches the length of the home. It’s a secluded sanctuary in the sky, offering the comfort of a five-star retreat.
The main floor centers around a chef’s kitchen framed by water views, equipped with top-of-the-line appliances and an expansive island ideal for hosting. Just behind it, a separate prep kitchen includes a hibachi grill and pizza oven, designed for serious entertaining.
An adjoining family room opens through floor-to-ceiling glass to a covered terrace, where the river becomes a backdrop for gatherings that move effortlessly between indoors and out.
The home’s performance is as impressive as its design. Loxone smart-home technology unifies lighting, climate, audio, and security into one seamless system, offering total control by app or voice.
The solar-powered roof, equipped with 78 panels, produces over 51 megawatt-hours per year, significantly offsetting energy costs and aligning luxury living with sustainability.
A private elevator connects all three levels of the Fort Lauderdale home, while a drive-through garage with high ceilings provides ample space for vehicles and water toys.
Outdoors, the property becomes its own private waterfront resort.
A 3,000-square-foot dock and 50,000-lb boat lift accommodate yachts with ease, while a multi-zone infinity-style pool incorporates a spa, swim lane, and sun deck.
With over 205 feet of direct Middle River frontage, it’s an ideal setup for boating enthusiasts — just two miles from the beach yet secluded in feel.
The adjacent buildable lot adds flexibility, providing space for a future guest house, sports court, or recreation area, expanding the compound’s footprint even further.
