The heartbeat of Deerfield Beach is "The Cove," on the intracoastal, just across the bridge from the famed Deerfield Beach International Fishing Pier and Boardwalk and convenient to the action on Hillsboro Boulevard.

If this sounds like a place you'd like to live, you might love 1665 SE 5th Court, which is within walking distance to popular The Cove Waterfront Restaurant and Tiki Bar and the shops that surround it.

It has a floorplan that will feel familiar to prospective buyers from the Northeast. Unlike so many homes in South Florida, it's a two-story residence, with a first-floor master suite as well as two additional bedrooms and a family room upstairs.

The spacious marble entrance foyer opens to a lanai and inground pool, embraced by tall hedges that create a private sanctuary.  There's a light, bright white and granite kitchen with a separate breakfast nook and adjacent fully equipped laundry room.

This sweet 2800-square foot home lists for $1.475 million and is represented by Denine McKerchie from my office at Coldwell Banker in Boca Raton. There's no HOA.
