Search The Palms on the map

The Palms is a compact, water-oriented pocket of Fort Lauderdale where the appeal is written into the geography — every active listing here sits on the water, with boat access shaping daily life as much as the homes themselves. It's a small, established neighborhood that trades the density of the beach corridor for a quieter, dock-side rhythm, and it draws buyers who want the canals more than the crowds. Nearby names like Galt Mile and Gingerwood Place round out the broader area for anyone still narrowing their search.

This is firmly a luxury waterfront market, and the numbers reflect it. There are just 9 active listings with a median list price of $1,690,000, but the three homes that sold over the past year closed at a median of $4,000,000 — a spread that tells you the top of the market moves at a very different price than the entry point. With homes averaging $714 per square foot, sitting a median of 125 days on market, and sellers netting about 84% of asking, buyers who do their homework have real room to negotiate. Browse the current inventory on the live map to see how the canals lay out.
