Renovating in
Little Harbor.
Deerfield Beach. Homes here include waterfront estates and 1950s and 60s ranch and contemporary homes. What the city and local broker guides say about building here, and what usually comes up when a house is renovated.
- 01
The houses
Homes here include waterfront estates and 1950s and 60s ranch and contemporary homes. Individual listings show 1969, 1971 and 1996 builds; no neighborhood-level era stated.
- 02
The lots and the water
The water here is canals and the river.
- 03
Seawalls and docks
Seawall, dock and boat-lift upgrades. On the water, the seawall and the dock are part of the project. Their condition and permits are looked at first, not after the kitchen is done.
- 04
Flood zone and elevation
Flood elevation limits and roof/window replacement. Many older, low-lying homes here sit in flood zones. When the cost of work passes half of what the home is worth, the rules can require it to meet current flood standards, so this is checked before the design is final.
Where this comes from: premierestateproperties.com, bexrealty.com, dev.waterfront-properties.com. Housing and lot details are as the city and broker guides describe them, and broker figures are marketing snapshots. The photograph is from a Johnson job elsewhere. It shows the kind of work, not a house in Little Harbor.
