This 5.04-acre waterfront parcel in unincorporated West Palm Beach includes approximately 3.04 acres of upland and a 2.00-acre deeded private road easement, with 600 feet of direct frontage on the C-51 Canal, a navigable waterway maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The site is fully fenced, gated, and build-ready with no HOA restrictions.
Site Configuration & Water Access
The property carries riparian rights, which allow for a private dock and boat storage directly on the canal. The C-51 connects west to Lake Osborne and east toward the Lake Worth Inlet, providing access to the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic. The 600-foot canal frontage is substantial; by comparison, most navigable waterfront lots in suburban Palm Beach County offer 100 to 200 feet at best.
The deeded 60-foot-wide private road easement provides sole-access control to the upland parcel, creating a natural buffer and the opportunity for a gated entrance. This level of ingress control is uncommon outside platted gated communities in the county.
Zoning & Development Potential
The parcel sits within the Palm Beach Farms Co 3 subdivision, an older agricultural plat that predates current suburban development patterns in the area. Buyers should verify current zoning with Palm Beach County's Planning, Zoning, and Building Department, as agricultural-residential parcels in this corridor have increasingly been subject to rezoning requests as the area densifies along the Southern Boulevard and Turnpike corridors.
With over three acres of usable upland, the site can accommodate a sizable compound with guest structures, equestrian facilities, or other accessory buildings, subject to county setback and impervious-surface requirements. A survey is available in the listing documents.
Location & Access
The property is positioned near the intersection of Southern Boulevard and the Florida Turnpike, placing it roughly 15 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport (PBI). Southern Boulevard runs directly east to the island of Palm Beach, approximately 20 minutes without traffic. The Turnpike provides north-south connectivity to Jupiter, Wellington, and points south toward Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale.
This stretch of western West Palm Beach has seen accelerated residential development over the past several years, particularly along the Jog Road and Haverhill Road corridors. Proximity to the Turnpike interchange adds long-term land value, though current surroundings remain relatively low-density.
