A newly remodeled waterfront home in Fort Lauderdale’s gated Bay Colony community is on the market for $13.5 million, bringing with it one of the amenities that matters most in this part of South Florida: serious boat access.
The property at 30 S Compass Drive has 105 feet of waterfront with direct ocean access and no fixed bridges, along with a newer seawall and dock.
Inside, the six-bedroom, nine-bath residence spans 7,141 square feet and has been comprehensively updated, with soaring ceilings and large expanses of glass keeping the water visible from many of the main living spaces.
The kitchen is particularly well equipped, with two islands, Gaggenau appliances, a statement La Cornue range and a dedicated coffee station.
Built-in cabinetry and custom finishes carry throughout the house, which is being offered turnkey.
Entertaining spaces go well beyond the main living room.
There’s a dedicated bar and club room, a temperature-controlled wine room and a private movie theater outfitted with full surround sound.
All six bedrooms are en suite, while the primary suite adds separate his-and-hers bathrooms. Electric blinds, custom window treatments and built-in closets have been incorporated throughout the house.
The remodel also addressed the less glamorous — but expensive — elements of owning a large waterfront property.
Impact-resistant windows and doors are new throughout, while the roof was replaced in 2024.
The seawall and dock have also been updated, taking care of several major capital improvements that can become substantial projects for waterfront homeowners.
Technology has been similarly modernized. New lighting runs throughout the residence, with lighting controls, electric shades and audio accessible through a phone or tablet as part of the home’s integrated smart system.
Outside, the property takes advantage of its broad water frontage, while Bay Colony’s gated setting provides another layer of privacy.
Even the garage was planned with future expansion in mind.
It currently accommodates four cars, but the ceilings are high enough for lifts that could potentially double capacity to eight vehicles — useful for a buyer whose collection requires nearly as much room as the boat.
The location also puts the residence within minutes of Coral Ridge Country Club, Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, the beach and Pine Crest School.
At $13.5 million, 30 S Compass Drive is ultimately selling two things at once: a fully remodeled, move-in-ready residence and waterfront infrastructure already prepared for the kind of boating lifestyle Fort Lauderdale is known for.
And with 105 feet on the water and no fixed bridges between home and ocean, the latter may be just as important as everything inside.
