A low-rise condominium complex of four stories built in 1979, Courtyards of Broward presents garden-style, mid-century suburban housing composed primarily of two-bedroom residences. Units typically feature tile floors in living areas with wood-style flooring or new wood in bedrooms, eat-in kitchens with pantry or breakfast areas, separate dining spaces, and combinations of soaking tubs and separate showers. Many homes have screened, enclosed or covered patios/balconies overlooking landscaped courtyards, ponds and fountains; hurricane sliders or storm shutters are common. The property’s exterior amenities emphasize outdoor living with patios, courtyards, barbecue areas and fenced sections, while community facilities include a gated entry, clubhouse, resort-style pool, laundry rooms, fitness area, library and shuffleboard courts. Buildings are elevator-served and offer on-site parking with dedicated adjacent spaces; the association manages maintenance, assessments and some appliance/service contracts. Pet and age rules vary by building record—some listings reference a 55+ representation and minimum-credit requirements while others note all-ages communities. The complex sits near major roads, shopping centers and schools, providing a suburban, convenience-oriented lifestyle with a mix of owner-occupied and investor-rented units.
