Colonial Architecture on Old Ocean Boulevard
The Colonial design takes advantage of the corner lot's dual exposure, with the primary living spaces oriented toward the ocean. An elevated living room features soaring ceilings and direct ocean sightlines, a layout that leverages the home's position above grade for uninterrupted views across the sand. The structure includes a two-car garage and sits on one of the wider parcels along this stretch of Old Ocean Boulevard.
Interior Layout
The main level centers on the elevated living room, which opens to ocean views through expansive glazing. The kitchen has been outfitted with Sub-Zero appliances and a generous central island, serving as the functional core of the floor plan. Two guest suites are located on the main level, each with its own bath, providing separation from the primary quarters upstairs.
The upper-level primary suite occupies the full second floor and includes a sitting area, a dedicated office or den, dual bathrooms, and dual walk-in closets. Ocean views from this level are unobstructed, taking in the full breadth of the Atlantic frontage without neighboring rooflines in the sightline.
Outdoor Living & Grounds
The 45-foot in-ground concrete lap pool is positioned within the property's tropical gardens, shielded from the street by mature plantings on both frontages of the corner lot. The oceanfront setting provides direct beach access, while the corner configuration allows for circulation around the grounds that most mid-block parcels in Ocean Ridge cannot offer.
Location & Access
Ocean Ridge operates under its own municipal governance with a dedicated police force patrolling both vehicle and beach access points, a feature that distinguishes it from unincorporated stretches of the barrier island. The town sits between Briny Breezes to the north and Manalapan to the south, with Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach roughly five minutes north and Worth Avenue in Palm Beach approximately 20 minutes by car. Palm Beach International Airport is a 25-minute drive. Old Ocean Boulevard itself is a quiet residential road that runs parallel to the beach, with limited through traffic and no commercial frontage.
Zoning in Ocean Ridge is exclusively residential with strict lot coverage and height restrictions, which effectively protects ocean views and limits new vertical construction along the coastline. Corner lots of this size are uncommon in the municipality and offer flexibility for future pool house or cabana additions within current setback allowances.
