Just west of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea and north of Oakland Park Boulevard, Imperial Point blends the charm of mid-century ranch homes with the convenience of living minutes from sand, shopping, and world-class healthcare. Planned in the early 1960s, the neighborhood was designed for families who wanted generous lots and quiet cul-de-sacs without giving up easy access to U.S. 1 and I-95. Today you’ll still find the signature single-story homes with breeze-block accents, but many have been reimagined with hurricane-impact windows, open-concept kitchens, and resort-style pools—proof that vintage character and modern comfort can coexist under one terra-cotta roof.
Lifestyle & Amenities
Shady Streets & Pocket Parks
Imperial Point lives up to its name with towering royal poinciana, gumbo-limbo, and mahogany trees that create a leafy canopy over morning dog-walk routes. Dottie Mancini Park anchors the community, offering lit tennis courts, dedicated pickleball lines, and Saturday yoga beneath the pavilion. A mile south, Imperial Point Park supplies a tot lot, picnic area, and walking loop—popular with stroller brigades and sunset power-walkers alike.
Healthcare Hub at Your Door
Ask locals why they moved here and many will mention Holy Cross Health, the 557-bed hospital adjoining the neighborhood’s southwest corner. Ranked among Florida’s top cardiac and orthopedic centers, the hospital doubles as an employer and peace-of-mind perk; urgent care, rehabilitation, and a women’s imaging center all reside within a five-minute drive.
Everyday Convenience
Publix GreenWise Market, Whole Foods, and Fresh Market line Federal Highway just west of the Isles, while indie cafés and breweries dot nearby Commercial Boulevard. Three miles south you’ll hit The Galleria’s upscale retailers; three miles north sits Pompano’s new Innovation District with its food-hall-style restaurants. Parents appreciate zoning to McNab Elementary and Northeast High, but private-school staples like Cardinal Gibbons and Pine Crest are also within ten minutes.
Outdoor & Coastal Fun
Beach days require minimal planning: zig east on Commercial Boulevard and you’ll park at Lauderdale-by-the-Sea’s oceanfront plaza in less than ten minutes—just enough time to finish an iced latte en route. Divers love that the SS Copenhagen wreck lies a quick boat ride offshore, while anglers cast for snook off back-yard docks along the languid canals edging the neighborhood. Cyclists cruise A1A’s protected bike lane or log training miles on shaded neighborhood loops before work.
Getting Around South Florida
Imperial Point sits equidistant from two I-95 interchanges, granting drivers 30-minute airport runs (FLL) and 45-minute jaunts to Palm Beach International (PBI). For rail travel, the Cypress Creek Tri-Rail station offers hourly service to Miami and West Palm Beach. Yet most errands never touch the highway—Las Olas’ nightlife, Boca’s Mizner Park concerts, and Pompano Pier’s fresh-catch eateries all live inside a breezy 20-minute bubble.
Why Choose Imperial Point?
No HOA fees, mature tree canopies, A-to-Z healthcare next door, and a genuine neighborhood vibe where lemonade-stand kids still flag down evening dog walkers—Imperial Point delivers a slice of classic suburbia wrapped in coastal convenience. Toss in lower property taxes than oceanfront zip codes plus speedy links to every Broward hot spot, and it’s easy to see why professionals, retirees, and growing families stake their long-term claims here.
