About This Property

Rarely does a property of this size, character, and location present such an exceptional opportunity. Just minutes from the vibrant shops, restaurants, entertainment, and pristine beaches of Delray Beach, this iconic residence offers tremendous potential for investors, developers, or buyers looking to create a truly one-of-a-kind estate. Originally built in 1925 and affectionately known as The Pineapple House, this nearly 8,000-square-foot home sits on an expansive property and features 7 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, a 3-car garage, and separate living quarters. While the home is in need of updating and renovations, its impressive footprint, unique architectural design, and versatile floor plan provide endless possibilities to restore, reimagine, or redevelop to suit your vision. Whether you're seeking to renovate and preserve its historic charm, create a luxurious custom estate, accommodate multi-generational living, or explore redevelopment opportunities (subject to local zoning and approvals), this property offers exceptional flexibility. The original four-bedroom residence showcases beautifully restored Dade County pine floors, while the kitchen features Carrera marble countertops, a built-in breakfast nook, and premium gas appliances. A thoughtfully designed 2001 addition expanded the home with three additional bedrooms and a private primary wing complete with a walk-in wine cellar, media room, and an architectural turret with a spiral staircase leading to private guest or in-law quarters—ideal for extended family, a nanny, or long-term guests. French doors open to an expansive, lushly landscaped backyard designed for the ultimate South Florida lifestyle. Enjoy an oversized pool, spa with waterfall feature, covered entertaining patio, outdoor summer kitchen, and generous green space for family gatherings, pets, or future enhancements. With its historic character, substantial square footage, highly desirable location near Atlantic Avenue, and outstanding value-add potential, this is a rare opportunity to transform a landmark property into an extraordinary residence or investment.
