Development Potential & Land
The 0.76-acre corner lot may offer potential for a two-lot subdivision, and the seller believes a three-lot configuration may be possible based on the original plat and historic lot layout, which reflected 4.5 lots in years past. The city has not confirmed or denied whether a three-lot configuration is feasible. All subdivision, zoning, lot-split, development, buildability, and approval possibilities must be independently verified by the buyer with the City of Delray Beach and all applicable authorities.
Main Residence Interiors
The main home features hardwood floors and Mexican tile throughout, with 9-foot ceilings and French doors that open directly to the pool and patio. The layout includes three spacious bedrooms beyond the primary, three full bathrooms, a powder room, a formal dining room, and a fireplace. Plantation shutters are installed throughout much of the home.
A two-car air-conditioned garage is attached to the main residence, and the circular driveway provides parking well beyond what a standard configuration would allow.
Guest Cottage & Pool
The separate 800-square-foot poolside guest cottage includes a kitchenette and a dedicated bedroom, currently producing rental income. This structure allows for immediate use or continued income generation while any future planning or development takes shape.
Grounds & Privacy
Established trees and manicured hedges surround the property, creating a natural privacy buffer across the full parcel. The circular driveway anchors the front approach, and the landscaping throughout reinforces the scale and seclusion that the lot size affords in East Delray Beach.
