Neighborhood · Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Academy Award
A quiet corner near Fort Lauderdale's Nova schools
Academy Award sits in the western reach of Fort Lauderdale homes for sale, a small residential pocket built around some of Broward County's best-known campuses. The neighborhood is anchored by the Nova cluster — Nova Dwight D. Eisenhower Elem, Nova High School and the selective College Academy At Broward College — which gives it a steady, family-and-student rhythm rather than a resort feel. It's a practical, low-key place near larger established areas like Plantation Acres and Gingerwood Place.
For a buyer today, the headline is scarcity: there are currently zero active listings here, so this is a market you have to wait for and move on quickly. Over the past 12 months only four homes changed hands, at a median sold price of $394,500, and sellers collected about 98% of their asking price — a sign that the few properties that do list are priced sensibly and don't sit long. Watch the live map and set an alert, because inventory this thin rewards being first.

Straight answers
Academy Award FAQs
Is Academy Award a good place to live?+
It's a quiet, residential neighborhood built around the well-regarded Nova High School cluster, which makes it especially appealing to families and students. The pace is calm and settled, and it sits close to larger established western Fort Lauderdale communities.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
No — it's relatively attainable for the area, with a median sold price of $394,500 over the past 12 months. That's a comfortable entry point compared with waterfront pockets like Galt Mile elsewhere in the city.
What do homes cost in Academy Award?+
The four homes sold in the past year had a median price of $394,500. With no active listings right now, pricing on the next home to hit the market will hinge on its size and condition, so recent sales are your best guide.
How is the market right now?+
It's extremely thin — there are currently zero active listings and only four sales closed over the past 12 months. Sellers earned about 98% of asking, so when a home does appear, expect to move fast and offer close to list.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Specific HOA and property-tax figures aren't available for the current, empty inventory here. Because costs vary by individual home and community, we'd confirm the exact monthly and annual numbers as soon as a property lists — reach out and we'll pull the details.
