This 1948 Key West-style CBS residence in the Northwood Addition of West Palm Beach has been fully renovated with a new roof, impact windows, and updated mechanical systems. The two-bedroom layout includes a dedicated office and sits on a private 50-by-120-foot lot set back from the street.
Construction & Systems
The home is concrete block and stucco (CBS) construction, a detail that matters in this wind zone. The roof was replaced in 2019, and central air conditioning was installed new in 2023. Impact windows are in place throughout, and the home runs on a natural gas tankless water heater, which is uncommon in this pocket of West Palm Beach and eliminates the bulk and recovery time of a traditional tank unit. A security system and sprinkler system for the grounds are also included.
Interior Layout
At just over 1,000 square feet under air, the floor plan is compact but purposeful. The kitchen has been modernized with stainless steel appliances and updated finishes. Both bathrooms have been renovated. A dedicated office provides flexible workspace or could function as a third sleeping area depending on configuration. Fresh interior paint carries through the living spaces.
Outdoor Living & Grounds
The lot is 0.14 acres with an oversized backyard relative to the footprint of the home. The setback from the street adds a layer of privacy not always available on the narrower lots in this section of Northwood. The rear yard is open and could accommodate a pool, accessory structure, or expanded outdoor living area, subject to City of West Palm Beach zoning allowances for the lot coverage ratio.
Location & Access
Northwood is positioned between the Dixie Highway corridor and North Flagler Drive, roughly two miles north of Clematis Street and downtown West Palm Beach. Palm Beach International Airport is a 10-minute drive south. The neighborhood has seen sustained investment in recent years, with the Northwood Village commercial district anchoring a walkable stretch of galleries, restaurants, and retail along Northwood Road. Proximity to the Intracoastal is close but this parcel does not carry waterfront or water access.
