The property occupies the corner of Banyan Road and South Ocean Boulevard in the Estate Section, within walking distance to Worth Avenue and the core of town.

Mediterranean Architecture & Renovation
Originally built in 1995, the residence has undergone a full renovation across its 9,025 square feet of living space under air, with an additional 2,790 square feet of covered outdoor areas bringing the total to nearly 11,815 square feet. The compound includes six bedrooms, seven full baths, and one half bath across the main residence and support spaces. A finished 1,400-square-foot lower level houses staff quarters with a full bath, storage, and a large-scale laundry room. The three-car garage includes a vehicle lift.
Interior Walkthrough
The principal rooms face the Atlantic through large-format glass windows. The primary suite occupies its own upper-level wing with ocean-facing balconies, dual closets, and separate his-and-her baths. The kitchen was recently designed and outfitted by L'Atelier Paris, a French custom kitchen fabricator known for its commercial-grade metalwork and range systems. The dining room and media room feature new built-in cabinetry throughout.
Whole-house systems include Lutron lighting control, Sonos integrated audio, and a full generator. These are not decorative upgrades; at this stretch of South Ocean, generator capacity and modern electrical infrastructure directly affect insurability and storm readiness.
Outdoor Living & Grounds
The grounds were recently re-landscaped with mature plantings designed for privacy screening on all sides. The outdoor entertaining areas include a summer kitchen with built-in refrigeration and storage, a pizza oven, and a professional-grade grill. A heated pool faces the ocean. A private beach tunnel provides direct sand access and was recently rebuilt with new drainage, lighting, and flooring.
That tunnel is worth noting: private beach tunnels under South Ocean Boulevard are a defining feature of the Estate Section's oceanfront parcels. They are grandfathered structures, and the condition and engineering of the tunnel directly affects long-term maintenance costs and usability.
Location & Access
The Banyan Road and South Ocean intersection places this property in the southern portion of the Estate Section, one of the most protected residential corridors on the island. The parcel's 23-foot elevation is notable: most oceanfront lots in Palm Beach sit between 10 and 15 feet, making this site materially less exposed to flood insurance surcharges and storm surge risk. Palm Beach International Airport is approximately 15 minutes by car.
At three-quarters of an acre with 165 feet of frontage, the lot is among the wider oceanfront parcels available in the Estate Section. The combination of elevation, frontage, and acreage at this location is difficult to replicate; comparable oceanfront parcels in this section rarely trade, and when they do, the land value alone accounts for a significant portion of the transaction.
