This 0.41-acre corner parcel in the Runnymede section of Delray Beach delivers 103 feet of wide, direct Intracoastal Waterway frontage on a 103-by-175-foot lot. The property carries a 1978-built residence with 5,550 square feet under air, though the listing positions it primarily as a development site capable of supporting a new-construction estate of up to 20,000 square feet.

Development Potential & Site
The corner lot configuration on Palm Trail provides dual street access and favorable setback geometry for a ground-up build. At 103 feet of direct Intracoastal frontage along one of the wider stretches of the waterway in south Palm Beach County, the parcel can accommodate deep-water yacht dockage. Buyers pursuing new construction should note that Delray Beach's current zoning and building envelope allowances on waterfront lots of this size have supported recent approvals for substantially larger structures than the existing footprint.
Existing Residence
The current home reads as a modern-inflected design with floor-to-ceiling glass oriented toward the waterway. The entry opens through metal double doors into a sitting area and living room where a full wall of pocketing glass sliders topped by clerestory windows frames Intracoastal views. The dining room continues this transparency with glass doors on three sides.
The kitchen is outfitted with high-gloss white cabinetry, quartz countertops, and GE Monogram appliances, with a pantry and breakfast area that opens to an outdoor summer kitchen. A family room with custom built-in cabinetry and a 120-inch television, a 700-bottle temperature-controlled wine room, an office, gym, and two ground-floor guest bedrooms round out the first level.
Upstairs, the primary suite opens to a private balcony with water views. The suite includes two bathrooms sharing a central walk-through shower; one features a soaking tub with a ceiling-mounted rainfall filler. Two additional ensuite guest bedrooms and a secondary laundry station complete the upper floor.
Systems & Infrastructure
The mechanical package includes a 60 kW Generac whole-house generator, natural gas service, three 5-ton zoned air conditioning units (all replaced within the last five years), two tankless gas water heaters, impact-rated windows and doors, and a metal roof. Water treatment includes a half-house purifier and reverse osmosis at the kitchen. An elevator and central vacuum system are installed.
Outdoor Living & Grounds
The grounds are organized around a heated gunite pool with a geometric reflective design, flanked by expansive waterside terraces. Lush landscaping screens the property from the street, and the outdoor summer kitchen extends the entertaining footprint along the Intracoastal edge. A three-car garage provides covered parking and storage.
Location & Access
Palm Trail sits within walking distance of Atlantic Avenue, Delray Beach's primary commercial corridor for dining and retail. The beach is minutes east. Boca Raton's private executive airport is approximately 20 minutes south, and Palm Beach International Airport is roughly 30 minutes north, making this a practical position for principals who travel frequently by private aviation. The Runnymede neighborhood is one of the tighter Intracoastal pockets in Delray, with limited inventory turnover and consistent demand for waterfront parcels of this scale.
