This 1986 Victorian and traditional residence sits on 3.4 acres of unincorporated land west of downtown Delray Beach, one of the largest privately held residential parcels remaining in this corridor. The property combines a four-bedroom main residence with a boat house, pool, and mature fruit tree groves, all with no HOA and future subdivision potential for up to 17 single-family homes.

Interior Layout & Systems
The main residence delivers 3,498 square feet under air across two levels. The ground floor includes one of two primary suites, a layout that accommodates multi-generational use or staff quarters without compromising the upper level. A dedicated office and separate laundry room occupy the first floor alongside living areas anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and real wood flooring throughout.
The upper level contains the second primary suite with balcony access, additional bedrooms, and a loft space. Infrastructure is well considered: central vacuum, water softener with reverse osmosis filtration, and full hurricane protection across all openings. The kitchen includes a gas stove, and the home provides a locking storage area suited to secure equipment or archive use.
Outdoor Living & Grounds
The 3.4-acre site is organized with a fenced residential zone surrounding the home, pool, and covered patio accessible through French doors. A concrete in-ground pool and a gazebo define the immediate outdoor living area. Beyond the fenced perimeter, the balance of the acreage includes fruit trees and open land, offering flexibility for equestrian use, agriculture, or future development.
A boat house on the property is equipped with electric and water service. While the parcel carries no waterfront designation, the outbuilding provides covered storage for vessels, trailers, or additional vehicles beyond the two-car garage.
Development Potential & Zoning
The MLS notes redevelopment potential for up to 17 single-family homes, making this a rare assemblage-scale opportunity within the Delray Beach zip code. Parcels of this size in unincorporated Palm Beach County west of I-95 are increasingly scarce as infill development pressures intensify. A buyer looking at a land play should verify current zoning with Palm Beach County's Planning, Zoning, and Building Department, as entitlement timelines in unincorporated areas typically run 12 to 18 months for residential subdivision plats.
Location & Access
The property sits minutes from Atlantic Avenue, Delray Beach's primary commercial and dining corridor, and the municipal beach. Palm Beach International Airport is approximately 25 minutes north via I-95. The unincorporated designation means county services and permitting rather than city of Delray Beach jurisdiction, which can offer more flexibility on setbacks, accessory structures, and agricultural exemptions.
