Architecture & Grounds
A meandering flagstone walkway leads through mature tropical plantings to the main entrance, setting the property apart from typical streetside arrivals. The arched entry gate, single-story massing, and lush perimeter landscaping create a layered sense of enclosure across the 0.32-acre parcel. Winding stone paths connect the main residence, guest house, pool area, and multiple outdoor gathering spaces throughout the gardens.
Interior Layout
The front door opens to an entry foyer that flows into a warm living space anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. The floor plan is a split design with two primary suites; one includes an oversized dressing room that can serve as a nursery. A versatile third bedroom works as a home office or guest room. The kitchen provides generous prep space and storage, positioned to serve both indoor living areas and the outdoor entertaining zones.
Outdoor Living & Pool
The rear grounds center on a large in-ground swimming pool surrounded by tropical landscaping and flagstone terracing. A fire pit is set beneath the palms, creating a secondary gathering area apart from the pool deck. The expansive lot allows for multiple distinct outdoor rooms, each screened by plantings for privacy. The scale of the grounds is uncommon for a property this close to Atlantic Avenue.
Guest House
An attached guest house includes its own covered patio, kitchenette, and full bath. The space functions independently for extended stays, visiting guests, or use as a creative studio, adding a fourth bedroom and fourth full bath to the property's total count.
Location & Access
NE 2nd Street is a dead-end lane with virtually no through traffic, located two blocks from Atlantic Avenue's dining, shopping, and beachfront access. The property is steps from the Intracoastal Waterway, placing it at the intersection of Palm Trail's residential quiet and Delray Beach's walkable downtown energy.
