A beautifully renovated, masterful landmark of Modernist architecture, the Boat House combines the very best elements of life in Palm Beach - the perfect spot on the lakefront with dock and boat-lift, deeded ocean access at the Mockingbird neighborhood beach cabana, and an incredibly elegant, exquisitely renovated, move-in ready home. This nautically themed Art Moderne home faces prow-forward toward dramatic sunsets, its rooftop deck overlooking the pool, dock and sparkling Intracoastal. Sea-going touches include seamed hardwood floors, porthole windows and white-piped terrace railings. The house received a full renovation a few years ago and the current owners then made meaningful improvements of their own. Those improvements include all new AC units including one for the garage, a high-end water filtration system, an oversized wine and beverage fridge, a smart home tech center and electric awning for the dining terrace. And to top it all off- an outdoor infrared sauna!
Mockingbird is one of the very few Palm Beach streets with both a private neighborhood beach cabanas and direct lake trail access.
