Westport
Neighborhood Guide by a Local Real Estate Agent

By Michele Noonan | Plantation Resident for More Than 22 Years | Licensed Since 1996

Westport is one of the neighborhoods I point buyers to when they want more house for their money than Plantation's gated luxury communities offer, without giving up quality construction. It was built by Robinette Homes — the same builder behind Hawks Landing — between 1992 and 1996, with homes ranging from roughly 2,300 to nearly 3,300 square feet.

What stands out about Westport is the size of the homes relative to what else is available at a similar price point in Plantation. Most properties here have three to five bedrooms, two to three bathrooms, and two to three car garages, and a lot of them have private pools. The community also backs up to five separate lake settings, so a meaningful share of Westport homes have water views — something buyers don't always expect to find outside of a gated community.

Westport isn't gated, and it doesn't have the guard-gate premium that comes with a community like Hawks Landing, but it's not lacking structure either — there's a mandatory HOA that keeps the common areas well maintained, so you get an open, accessible neighborhood feel without it looking neglected.

Location-wise, Westport sits centrally in Plantation with easy access to I-595 and the Florida Turnpike, putting Fort Lauderdale, Davie, and Weston all within easy reach. Residents are close to Plantation Promenade, Vizcaya Square, Sawgrass Mills, and Jacaranda Golf Club.

Because Westport homes don't come on the market constantly, buyers who are serious about the neighborhood tend to compare listings carefully once something new hits — lot position, pool condition, updates, and which of the five lakes a home backs up to all factor into how a property is valued relative to the rest of the community. If you're thinking about selling in Westport, that's exactly the kind of comparison I walk sellers through before we set a price, so the home is positioned to compete, not just listed and hoped for.

Westport Real Estate Agent | Michele Noonan

A Well-Established Family Community in the Heart of Plantation

By Michele Noonan | Westport Realtor | Plantation Resident for 22 Years | Listing Specialist

Last Updated July 2026

Westport is one of the neighborhoods I know well as a Westport real estate agent, from more than two decades of working the Plantation market. It's a community that consistently draws buyers who want an open, non-gated setting without giving up water views or builder quality. Built by Robinette Homes — the same builder behind Hawks Landing — Westport has a track record for solid construction and a layout that gives a meaningful share of its homes direct lake frontage. Whether you're selling a Westport home or searching for one, here's what makes this community different and what you need to know before you make your move.

About Westport

Westport is a well-established single family community in central western Plantation, situated between Hiatus Road to the west and Nob Hill Road to the east, with the main entrance off Broward Boulevard at NW 108th Avenue and the neighborhood extending north to NW 7th Court. It was developed by Robinette Homes between 1992 and 1996, the same builder responsible for Hawks Landing, and shares that same reputation for solid, well-constructed homes.

The neighborhood comprises 306 homes and backs up to five distinct lake settings, which means a large portion of the community has direct waterfront views — a feature that's often reserved for gated, higher-priced communities elsewhere in Plantation. Westport is not gated, which gives it a more open, accessible feel while still maintaining well-kept common areas through its mandatory homeowners association.

What Makes Westport Different

Builder pedigree — Robinette Homes built both Westport and Hawks Landing, so buyers get a similar standard of construction quality at a considerably more accessible price point than Plantation's guard-gated luxury communities.

Water access without the gate — Five separate lake settings run through the community, giving many homes lake views and waterfront positioning that's uncommon outside of gated developments in this part of Plantation.

Central, convenient location — Westport sits close to Plantation's main commercial corridors, with easy access to shopping, dining, and I-595 without the drive time some of Plantation's western neighborhoods require.

Homes and Real Estate in Westport

Homes in Westport range from approximately 1,800 to 3,000 square feet with three to five bedrooms and two to three bathrooms. Most homes offer two to three car garages, and many feature private pools. Because the community backs up to five separate lakes, water frontage and lake views are common rather than rare, and lots with direct lake access typically command a premium over interior lots within the same community.

As with any established neighborhood built across several years, condition and level of updating vary from home to home — some have been fully renovated with modern kitchens, updated bathrooms, and newer roofs, while others retain their original 1990s features and represent an opportunity for buyers willing to update to their own taste.

Current Price Range: $985,000 to $1,299,000

Amenities and Community Features

Westport's five lake settings are the community's defining amenity, offering scenic water views and a more open feel than many of Plantation's denser subdivisions. The neighborhood is governed by a mandatory homeowners association — Westport Homeowners Association, Inc. — which maintains common areas and community standards. Buyers should confirm current HOA dues and any assessment history directly with the association before purchasing, since fee information isn't something I want to state without verifying it against the HOA's current records.

Schools Near Westport

Westport falls within Broward County Public Schools. Central Park Elementary, located nearby on Nob Hill Road, serves several surrounding Plantation neighborhoods and is a strong possibility for this address, but school zone boundaries can be precise down to the street level and do shift over time. I'd always recommend verifying the exact zoned elementary, middle, and high school for a specific Westport address through the Broward County school locator before making any decisions based on school assignment.

Location and Accessibility

Westport's location off Broward Boulevard at NW 108th Avenue puts residents roughly a five minute drive from I-595, with convenient access to Plantation Promenade, Vizcaya Square, Sawgrass Mills Mall, and Jacaranda Golf Club. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is approximately 20 minutes away, and downtown Fort Lauderdale and Fort Lauderdale Beach are roughly 25 to 30 minutes east.

Shopping and Dining Near Westport

Plantation Promenade and Vizcaya Square are both minutes from Westport, offering everyday retail, dining, and services. Sawgrass Mills Mall, one of the largest outlet and retail destinations in the country, is a short drive away. For golf, Jacaranda Golf Club is nearby as well. Multiple Publix locations and other everyday grocery options are convenient to the neighborhood.
