Outdoor entertaining takes center stage at 5161 NE 18th Terrace, Fort Lauderdale FL 33308. This single-story ranch in Knoll Ridge has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 1,660 square feet of living space on a 7,305-square-foot lot. More than $150,000 in outdoor upgrades give the backyard a substantial role in how the home lives.

A fully equipped outdoor kitchen with seating for 18, a built-in grill and a new tiki bar creates space for gathering. The expansive new travertine patio surrounds a private heated and chilled saltwater pool with WiFi controls. Pool improvements include new equipment and plumbing, fresh Diamond Brite surfacing and mosaic tile accents. Newer fencing and exterior lighting round out the outdoor setting.

Inside, the open-concept kitchen pairs natural granite waterfall countertops with soft-close Italian cabinetry. Tile flooring runs throughout the home, and both bathrooms have been updated. French doors and views of the garden and pool connect the interior with the landscaped grounds.

The oversized, tiled two-car garage has a new door, smart lighting and a laundry area. An extra-wide paver driveway provides additional parking, while a natural-stone front porch finishes the approach. Storage space adds everyday practicality.

Documented improvements include a 2025 air-conditioning system, a Nest thermostat, an updated electrical panel, new gutters and insulation, and relined pipes. The home also has an accessible entrance and kitchen. Built in 1960, it combines its one-story ranch design with substantial updates to the outdoor living areas and key home systems.
