Offered for the first time in more than 40 years, this exceptional John Volk-designed residence is a rare architectural treasure in the heart of the Old Northwood Historic District, now approaching its centennial year. A true stewarded estate, the home has been thoughtfully maintained and sensitively updated to honor its original design.
This distinguished two-story fully fenced residence offers five bedrooms and two bathrooms, with large and flexible living areas, spacious bedrooms, authentic Spanish-style flooring, and rich architectural details that reflect Volk’s enduring influence on South Florida’s most admired historic homes. Natural light, proportion, and craftsmanship define the interior, creating an atmosphere that is both elegant and inviting. Set on a generously sized lot, the outdoor environment features a large pool, lush landscaping, and ample space for entertaining, recreation, or quiet retreat. A detached cottage/casita with infrastructure for kitchen and bathroom already in place. This space provides exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, or private work-from-home or office accommodations. The cottage faces one of the rare alleyways of the neighborhood, which allows for additional parking for guests to main home or cottage.
Old Northwood is one of West Palm Beach’s most coveted historic neighborhoods, established in the early 1920s just moments from the Intracoastal Waterway. Known for its mature tree-lined streets, sidewalks, and collection of architecturally significant homes – including works by John Volk and Gustav Maass. Northwood offers a rare sense of character and community while remaining close to downtown West Palm Beach, the up-and-coming Nora district, Northwood Village, Palm Beach, and area beaches. Northwood sits at the edge of the 35.5M Currie Park redevelopment project. Set to be completed by 2027.
This is your rare opportunity to become the next caretaker of a true architectural gem – where history, privacy, and refined living converge.
