LOCATION 

South Atlantic Drive, Lantana, Florida.  Hypoluxo Island preserves Old Florida tranquility on a scenic barrier island surrounded by the Intracoastal Waterway in the heart of South Florida’s Gold Coast, midway between Palm Beach and Boca Raton.  Just across the bridge is the sugar-sand ocean beachfront of Manalapan, home to the Five-Diamond Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa.

PROPERTY

Offering an impressive sense of arrival, the front entry gates open to the brick-paved motor court set amidst lush tropical landscaping, and in the backyard, nothing is left wanting. Here, two loggias and a fully-equipped summer kitchen are adjacent to the sun-dappled, salt-water infinity-edge pool dramatically inset with a spa, sun shelf, bar and fire pit.  An arbor enhanced by a cascading waterfall provides another striking focal point, and attractive to water-sports enthusiasts with 75± feet on the intracoastal Waterway and direct ocean access with no fixed bridges, the full-service dock is equipped with boat and wave-runner lifts.
