A Contemporary Vision of Storied Beachside Living in North Beach Village
Welcome to Bungalow East — a limited collection of just 34 luxury condos for sale in Fort Lauderdale Beach, rising 14 stories above the historic North Beach Village at 530 N. Birch Road.
Developed by Merrimac Ventures, the Motwani family firm that has spent over 35 years literally building this coastline, Bungalow East represents the final chapter in one of South Florida’s most remarkable development stories.
This is not simply another pre-construction condo in Fort Lauderdale Beach — it is the culmination of a generational vision on the specific site the family has owned and stewarded for three decades, intentionally waiting until exactly the right vision emerged.
Designed by Swedroe Architecture with interiors by Adriana Hoyos Design Studio, every one of the 34 residences is a corner unit — an extraordinary rarity in any market.
Floor-to-ceiling impact glass captures ocean and Intracoastal views from every home. Italkraft chef’s kitchens, Sub-Zero Wolf appliances, 10-foot ceilings, and expansive summer kitchen terraces bring the standard of a private estate to a vertical community unlike anything else on Fort Lauderdale Beach.
Prices start at $2,000,000.
Bungalow East is defined by a fact almost no luxury building anywhere can claim: every single residence is a corner unit. At 34 homes across 14 stories, each owner commands multiple exposures — maximizing natural light, cross-ventilation, and panoramic views of both the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway.
Among boutique beachside residences in Fort Lauderdale, this is genuinely without precedent. Kitchens by Italkraft feature the full Sub-Zero Wolf suite, including a gas cooktop; every home also includes a private elevator, private foyer, walk-in closets, in-unit laundry, and a summer kitchen terrace of at least 12 feet in depth.
