Rooftop Deck, Deeded Dock, and Under $1.5 Million: Inside a Santa Barbara Estates Townhome in Pompano
For under $1.5 million, this three-story townhome in Santa Barbara Estates in Pompano Beach delivers a three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom layout at just under 3,100 square feet, a two-car garage with a lift, a rooftop deck, and a deeded dock space for up to a 30-foot boat.

Townhomes with a deeded dock and a rooftop deck at this price point are rare in Pompano, so I wanted to break this one down. Here is the full breakdown.
What Does This Santa Barbara Estates Townhome Include
This is a three-story townhome, just under 3,100 square feet, with three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. The main floor includes a bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom, along with a two-car garage equipped with a lift, meaning the space technically accommodates three cars. The entire community is gated.
What Makes the Rooftop Deck Worth Highlighting
The rooftop deck offers stunning views — striking enough that sunglasses are a genuine recommendation up there. It's realistically where an owner would spend a significant amount of time, whether grilling steaks or burgers, hanging out with friends, or adding a hot tub, and it works equally well for a sunrise coffee or a sunset cocktail.
How Does the Deeded Dock Work
The home includes a deeded dock space capable of accommodating up to a 30-foot boat, which is enough room for a decent-sized center console. Combined with the second-floor main living area and the rooftop, the dock rounds out what functions as three distinct lifestyle spaces within a single property.
What's on the Upper Floors
The third floor houses the remaining two bedrooms, both en-suite, with bathroom finishes strong enough that even the secondary bathroom feels like a primary suite.
Where Is Santa Barbara Estates Located, and What's Nearby
Santa Barbara Estates sits close enough to the beach, the pier, and a strong local dining and activity scene that residents can walk, bike, or golf cart to most of it. Nearby options include Briny's, Flanigan's, 26 Degree Brewing, Rosita's, and Houston's, along with a Publix and All Star Fitness for everyday convenience.
What This Means for Buyers Who Want a Boat and a Rooftop Lifestyle
A deeded dock for up to a 30-foot boat, a two-car garage with a lift, and a rooftop deck built for entertaining are amenities that typically come at a much higher price point closer to the water in Fort Lauderdale. Finding all three under $1.5 million in a gated Pompano community is a meaningful value proposition for buyers who want boat access without paying for a standalone waterfront lot.
Would I Live Here in Pompano?
Yes. Between the deeded dock, the rooftop deck, and the walkable access to the beach and local restaurants, this is one of the stronger lifestyle packages I've seen in Pompano at this price point.
