Located in a quiet residential neighborhood just (4) blocks South of Atlantic Boulevard.

If you're looking for a quiet place to relax in style, look no further.

The Manatee House: Our name, and many of our decorations, has been inspired by these gentle giants that frequent the waters of South Florida. Whether a Manatee, Sea Turtle, Dolphin, or Alligator, a glimpse of one of these majestic animals in the wild is memorable. We support any conservation effort that not only helps these animals survive, but thrive in South Florida, to be enjoyed by many generations to come.

You'll be greeted by our Manatee Mailbox, a Custom Design made locally in the Florida Keys and unique to the neighborhood. The front of the Pompano Beach property is lined by swaying, mature, Foxtail Palm Trees and a white picket Fence. The entry way is marked by a Manatee sculpture and (2) Pink Adirondack Chairs. Off-Street Parking is available for (4) Vehicles.

Inside is Traditional Florida. Soft colors, lots of natural light, soaring ceilings, and Porcelain Tile throughout. Beautiful Crown Molding and Custom Trim accent the entire home. Central Air Conditioning and a Heat Pump provide Electronically Programmable year round Climate Control. Sizable Closets hold a Built-in Dresser, in each Bedroom, for added floor space. Oversized Sliding Glass Doors lead to the In-Ground Pool and Hot Tub. Hibiscus Hedges and Palm Trees line the backyard for an added measure of privacy.
