Sage Intracoastal Residences Fort Lauderdale: Boutique Luxury, Waterfront Living & Construction Momentum

Fort Lauderdale New Construction Update — 2026

Continuous momentum, ever evolving, and timeline certainty… welcome to the next installment of the Fort Lauderdale New Construction Update for 2026. Today, we are taking a closer look at one of the more refined boutique luxury developments currently rising along the Intracoastal Waterway in Fort Lauderdale: Sage Intracoastal Residences.

In a market where buyers are becoming increasingly selective, projects that combine location, design, privacy, and construction certainty are separating themselves from the broader field. Sage Intracoastal is positioning itself firmly within that category. With construction underway, a secured construction loan, and a vision refined by buyer feedback, Sage is the modern luxury product many Fort Lauderdale buyers are seeking today.

Having tracked every meaningful pre-construction development along the Fort Lauderdale Intracoastal for years, I can say with confidence that Sage occupies a distinctive position in this cycle.

Boutique Waterfront Living Along the Fort Lauderdale Intracoastal

Developed by PMG, Sage Intracoastal offers a more intimate, private approach to waterfront living. The tower will rise 28 stories and include just 44 flow-through residences, prioritizing exclusivity, scale, and thoughtful design over density. That boutique approach is increasingly appealing in today’s luxury market, where buyers are placing greater emphasis on privacy, functionality, and livability rather than simply the size of a building.

One of the more important aspects of Sage is how the developer adapted the project in response to buyer demand. The original vision evolved as tower height increased and the floorplate was redesigned to accommodate just two residences per floor. The result is a far more refined residential experience with expansive flow-through layouts, enhanced privacy, and maximized light exposure.

Each home is designed as a true corner residence with either north- or south-facing orientations. This allows for abundant natural light and dramatically different but equally compelling views. South-facing residences capture dynamic Intracoastal and skyline vistas, while north-facing homes enjoy expansive greenery and permanently protected sightlines toward the surrounding parks and gardens. It creates a sense of openness and tranquility that is becoming increasingly rare within South Florida’s coastal markets.

Expansive Residences Designed for Modern Luxury Living at Sage Intracoastal Fort Lauderdale

The residences themselves are generous in scale and designed to embrace indoor-outdoor living. Floor plans range from approximately 2,800 to over 3,200 square feet and include three-bedroom-plus-den and four-bedroom layouts tailored for both full-time residents and seasonal luxury buyers.

The interiors reflect the current direction of modern luxury design — clean lines, openness, warmth, and functionality. Features include 10-foot ceilings, expansive terraces with summer kitchens, floor-to-ceiling glass, and fully built-out closets. Rather than focusing on excessive formality, the homes emphasize comfort, flexibility, and effortless entertaining.

Pricing currently ranges from just under $3 million to slightly above $5 million, with a price per square foot of approximately $1,100 to $1,600, depending on floor level, orientation, and floor plan. From a comparative standpoint, Sage remains competitively positioned within Fort Lauderdale’s newer luxury condominium segment, particularly given its boutique scale, waterfront setting, and modern construction standards.

Wellness Amenities & Full-Service Lifestyle at Sage Intracoastal

Sage Intracoastal provides a boutique atmosphere and a lifestyle experience. The building includes more than 19,000 square feet of amenities thoughtfully centered around wellness, convenience, and resident comfort. Not too much, yet not too little.

Among the standouts is the wellness-focused spa experience featuring sauna, steam, and cold plunge amenities, reflecting the growing importance buyers place on health- and wellness-oriented living. The project also includes a state-of-the-art fitness center, beautifully designed outdoor spaces along the Intracoastal Waterway, and resort-inspired gathering areas intended to create both privacy and social connection.

Residents will also benefit from 24-hour valet and concierge services, offering the conveniences of much larger luxury developments while maintaining the intimacy and exclusivity of a boutique building. This balance is becoming one of the defining trends in today’s luxury condominium market. Buyers increasingly want elevated services and resort-style amenities without sacrificing privacy or facing the challenges often associated with larger towers.

Sunrise Intracoastal: One of Fort Lauderdale’s Premier Luxury Neighborhoods for New Construction

One of Sage Intracoastal’s strongest attributes is unquestionably its location within Sunrise Intracoastal, one of Fort Lauderdale’s most established and desirable residential neighborhoods. Known for its quiet tree-lined streets, proximity to the beach, and exceptional collection of waterfront estates, Sunrise Intracoastal has long represented one of the city’s premier luxury enclaves.

The caliber of the surrounding real estate continues to reinforce the neighborhood’s strength. Currently, several waterfront estates in the area are asking over $20 million, including one property approaching $55 million. That level of ultra-luxury activity supports long-term desirability and helps reinforce the value proposition of newer luxury developments entering the neighborhood.

Directly across from Sage sits Bonnet House Museum & Gardens, preserving important green space and view corridors that contribute significantly to the project’s openness and natural beauty. To the north, Hugh Taylor Birch State Park spans more than 180 acres, creating an uncommon sense of space within an increasingly developed coastal market.

The Galleria Redevelopment & The Continued Evolution of Fort Lauderdale

Another important factor supporting Sage Intracoastal’s long-term outlook is the continued transformation of the surrounding area. Just moments away is The Galleria at Fort Lauderdale, slated for a major mixed-use redevelopment that is expected to introduce new residential components, enhanced retail and dining, and a more walkable, lifestyle-oriented environment.

This type of investment often creates a meaningful ripple effect throughout surrounding neighborhoods by elevating convenience, enhancing lifestyle appeal, and increasing overall desirability. Similar redevelopment patterns have already reshaped several luxury urban districts throughout South Florida, where residential, hospitality, wellness, and retail experiences increasingly intersect.

For Sage owners, that continued evolution adds another layer to the project’s appeal — not only benefiting from an already exceptional location, but also from the broader long-term growth and enhancement of the surrounding district.

Sage Intracoastal Residences Fort Lauderdale Aligns with Today’s Fort Lauderdale Luxury Buyer

From a market perspective, Sage Intracoastal aligns almost perfectly with current buyer demand in Fort Lauderdale luxury real estate. Today’s buyers are gravitating toward newer construction, modern layouts, lower-maintenance ownership, wellness-focused amenities, boutique scale, and projects with real construction momentum and timeline certainty.

Sage checks each of those boxes.  Perhaps most importantly, the project is well beyond the conceptual phase. Construction is actively underway, financing is secured, and delivery is anticipated in the third quarter of 2027. In today’s environment, that certainty matters significantly. Buyers are increasingly cautious about projects still navigating approvals or financing phases, making active construction and visible progress powerful differentiators.
