Built by Dan Swanson of Addison Development in 2002, this Palm Beach-inspired compound occupies two combined southeast point lots in The Sanctuary, a gated Intracoastal enclave in Boca Raton. The property commands approximately 350 feet of shoreline with no fixed bridges between the dock and ocean, and includes a separate guest and carriage house alongside the main residence.

Architecture & Construction
Addison Development, led by Dan Swanson, delivered the original structure with a formal, classically proportioned design across nearly 19,500 total square feet. The main house and detached guest/carriage house sit on 0.63 acres assembled from two point lots, giving the estate water exposure on three sides. A five-bay garage anchors the motor court side of the property.
Interior Layout
Entry is through a grand-scale foyer that opens to formal living and dining rooms oriented toward the waterfront. The kitchen has been recently updated with a large island layout, and an adjacent English Club Room includes a pub. A dedicated media and screening room is also on the main level.
The primary suite faces the water and includes dual spa-caliber bathrooms. With eight bedrooms and twelve total baths distributed between the main house and the guest/carriage house, the compound accommodates extended family or staff without compromising privacy. An elevator serves the main residence.
Outdoor Living & Waterfront
The southeast-facing pool terrace is finished in Chicago brick and connects to a full entertainment loggia with a professional bar, summer kitchen, cabana, and fireplace. Formal gardens frame the grounds, and the waterfront entertaining area wraps the point orientation of the lot.
With approximately 350 feet of shoreline and no fixed bridge restrictions, the property supports multi-yacht dockage with direct ocean access via the Boca Raton Inlet. That inlet proximity, roughly a mile north, is a meaningful advantage; many Intracoastal properties in south Palm Beach County face fixed-bridge constraints or longer channel runs to open water.
Location & Access
The Sanctuary is a private, gated waterfront community on the east side of Boca Raton, positioned along the Intracoastal Waterway south of Palmetto Park Road. Boca Raton Airport is approximately ten minutes west, and Palm Beach International Airport is roughly 25 minutes north via I-95. The community's location east of the bridges places residents within minutes of East Boca dining, Mizner Park, and direct beach access. Point lots in The Sanctuary rarely trade; the assembled two-lot configuration here is particularly difficult to replicate given the community's built-out density.
