The island of oceanfront estates, Worth Avenue, and old-money exclusivity.
Palm Beach is the top of the South Florida luxury market. The island runs ocean to lake, so many homes sit between the Atlantic and the Intracoastal, and Worth Avenue is the address for high-end shopping and dining. This is a market of historic mansions, private clubs, and oceanfront estates, with old-money exclusivity that has held for generations. Buyers here are choosing among the Estate Section, the North End, Midtown, and the South End, each with its own character.
The Estate Section holds the grandest historic mansions and largest oceanfront lots. The North End offers a quieter residential feel with a mix of ocean-block and lakefront homes. Midtown puts you near Worth Avenue and the clubs, while the South End adds more condo living. Each part of the island carries its own price band and character.
Exclusivity and the ocean. Palm Beach is known for oceanfront estates, historic architecture, private clubs, and Worth Avenue, one of the most famous luxury shopping streets in the country. The island runs ocean to lake, so waterfront in some form is central to most of the market. It is a place buyers choose for privacy and prestige.

The Town of Palm Beach is in Palm Beach County, on a barrier island across the Intracoastal from West Palm Beach.
Yes. Oceanfront estates are a defining feature of the island, and because it runs ocean to lake, many homes also have Intracoastal frontage. These trade at the top of the market, so check live listings on search for current availability.
