A 1926 Spanish Mission residence sits on a double lot totaling roughly a quarter acre in Historic Northwood Hills, one of West Palm Beach's earliest platted neighborhoods.

Architecture & Interior
The home retains its Old Spanish and Mediterranean massing, characteristic of the neighborhoods developed north of downtown West Palm Beach in the 1920s. The main residence is configured as a two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout with the potential to convert to a third bedroom by adding a single partition wall. Kitchens have been modernized with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. New impact windows have been installed throughout, an important upgrade given Palm Beach County wind code requirements and insurance underwriting considerations.
Grounds & Lot
The 0.23-acre double lot is a defining feature of this property. In Northwood Hills, double lots are increasingly uncommon as the neighborhood has densified, and the additional land provides both setback flexibility and future development optionality under West Palm Beach zoning. An in-ground pool occupies part of the rear yard. Total structure encompasses 1,642 square feet with 1,322 square feet under air conditioning.
Location & Access
Northwood Hills sits roughly two miles north of Clematis Street and the downtown West Palm Beach waterfront, with direct access to Dixie Highway and I-95. The neighborhood falls within the city's Northwood Historic District, which may impose design review requirements for exterior modifications but also qualifies properties for Ad Valorem tax exemptions tied to historic preservation. Palm Beach International Airport is approximately a 15-minute drive south. The revival of the broader Northwood Village commercial corridor, anchored by independent galleries and restaurants along Northwood Road, has accelerated buyer interest in the surrounding residential blocks.
