The outdoor living spaces are a true highlight, featuring three separate private patios surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. Each offers shaded areas for dining, relaxing, or entertaining throughout the day.

Pool and spa settings are conveniently controlled via an in-home tablet.

The home offers two separate living areas—a cozy living room with a fireplace and a generously sized family room, providing ample space for gathering, entertaining, or relaxing. The beautifully renovated chef's kitchen blends modern convenience with the home's vintage character and features premium stainless steel appliances, including a double oven, French-door refrigerator, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower with a luxurious rain shower head and 8 separate body jets. Two additional guest bedrooms share a full bathroom with a tub/shower combination, while a conveniently located half bath off the family room provides easy access from both the indoor living areas and the outdoor patio. Parking is plentiful, with space for four vehicles, including a one-car garage, a two-car driveway, and an additional side driveway. The kitchen range, tankless water heater and pool/spa heater are fueled by economical LP gas. Delray Beach has been recognized by the Travel Channel as one of Florida's Top 10 Beaches. Its stunning two-mile stretch of public beach is anchored by the lively Atlantic Avenue, offering an unmatched blend of award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping, art galleries, entertainment, nightlife, and coastal charm—all just minutes from your front door!
