River Garden Sweeting Estate is a small, residential corner of Fort Lauderdale homes for sale where the pace stays low-key and the streets feel settled. You're within reach of the energy that defines the city — the beaches near Central Beach, the walkable blocks of Victoria Park, and the mid-rise skyline along the Galt Mile — but this neighborhood itself trades the buzz for a more grounded, everyday feel.
For a buyer today, the numbers tell a tight, tidy story. The median list price sits at $450,000 with just a couple of active listings on the market, and the one home sold in the past year went for 100% of asking — a signal that priced-right homes here move without much drama. Median days on market run about 33, so there's room to make a considered decision, but well-positioned listings won't wait forever. Browse the live map to see what's currently available.

Straight answers
River Garden Sweeting Estate FAQs
Is River Garden Sweeting Estate a good place to live?+
It's a small, quiet residential neighborhood inside Fort Lauderdale, which appeals to buyers who want proximity to the beach and downtown without the intensity of areas like Coral Ridge or the beachfront towers. Homes here are assigned to the well-regarded Nova school cluster, a genuine draw for families weighing their options.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
Compared to Fort Lauderdale's waterfront and high-rise tiers, it's relatively accessible — the median list price is $450,000 with active listings ranging from $420,000 to $480,000. At roughly $309 per square foot on a median 1,514-square-foot home, you're paying a mid-market rate for the city.
What do homes cost in River Garden Sweeting Estate?+
Current listings run from $420,000 to $480,000, with a median of $450,000. The one home sold in the past 12 months closed at $410,000, so recent activity and asking prices are landing in a fairly narrow band.
How is the market right now?+
It's a very small market — only two active listings and one recorded sale in the past year — but the signals are seller-friendly. That sale closed at 100% of asking, and homes are taking a median of about 33 days to sell, so inventory is thin and well-priced homes hold their value.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs about $235 per month, and median property tax is roughly $5,779 per year. For context, the median rent in the area is around $2,025 per month, which is useful if you're weighing owning against renting at this price point.
