Annie Santulli has spent more than two decades designing homes in and around Palm Beach, with additional projects in the Hamptons, the Bahamas, and Cape Cod, as well as interiors for private yachts.
South Florida’s coastal cities make outdoor living more than an amenity, and this pair of pool-centered residences captures that ethos in distinct ways. In Boca Raton, a rare pool home within Paraiso pairs an open plan, vaulted ceilings, and multiple slider sets with the added ease of a new A/C and gated-community perks. In West Palm Beach’s SoSo district, a 1926 Spanish-Mediterranean estate—reimagined in 2026—turns inward to a private courtyard pool, blending historic character with refined, modern finishes.
Florida’s coastal lifestyle takes center stage in this quintet, where indoor-outdoor living and boating practicality shape the experience as much as architecture. From a turnkey, pool-and-spa retreat in gated The Falls at Lost Lake in Hobe Sound to a North Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens lineup defined by 70–95 feet of waterfront, these homes prioritize time on the water with docks, lifts, slips, and ocean access. Several are Vista Builders or Foster Banyan new builds spanning 2025–2027, with generous bedroom counts and garages suited to hosting.
Space, privacy, and a life built outdoors. Each property leans into room to live large, from oversized parcels designed for RVs, boats, and collector garages to resort-style pools and extended screened lanais framed by preserve views. North Palm Beach anchors the coastal end of the spectrum with rare opportunities, including an oceanfront parcel suited to a legacy compound and a 2026 deep-water estate with ocean access and no fixed bridges.
Along Florida’s Atlantic edge, this quintet of homes traces a single coastal story told through proximity to sand and a persistent pull toward the water. From Vero Beach addresses offering deeded access and a prime Central Beach setting east of A1A, to Highland Beach’s intimate nine-residence oceanfront coop framed by sunrise views, each property prioritizes light, ease, and shoreline rhythm. In East Boca, the perspective widens to a renovated lakeside residence and a point-location corner unit with sweeping Intracoastal panoramas just steps from the beach.
Real frontage, meaningful privacy, and amenities designed around the day’s tides and light. From Hutchinson Island’s smart-home estate with 155± feet of ocean and rooftop views, to Vero Beach residences with 100 feet of beach and deepwater bulkhead docking, each offering leans into effortless indoor–outdoor living. The collection also spans Ocean Drive’s walkable prestige, including a buildable oceanfront parcel and a rare fee-simple beachfront commercial trophy rebuilt in 2018.
Water as both panorama and pastime. From a West Palm Beach penthouse poised over the Intracoastal to Vero Beach holdings spanning oceanfront, riverfront, and Riomar Bay, each property is shaped by frontage, southern exposure, and long, cinematic views. Several read as legacy compounds—walled, gated, and designed for multigenerational living—while others foreground modern resilience, smart systems, and resort-caliber amenities that keep daily life oriented to the shoreline.
In Delray Beach, a quartet of residences traces the many ways water shapes daily life, from a calm canal outlook in a 55+ villa community to expansive intracoastal and marina panoramas from a remodeled two-story condo. Community-minded living and easy indoor-outdoor flow anchor the selection, whether through social amenities or a private patio. Updates and modern finishes appear throughout, reinforcing a move-in-ready sensibility. At the pinnacle, a Tropic Isle estate with a 90-foot seawall, dock, and two boat lifts defines true boating access.
Florida’s coastal corridor sets the tone for this quintet of properties, where beach proximity and everyday convenience shape the rhythm of life. Two Vero Beach condos along Highway A1A emphasize bright, updated interiors and easy indoor-outdoor living with generous lanais and porches just moments from the sand. In Palm Beach County, a Delray Beach 55+ community pairs an open green view with recreation amenities, while Palm Beach Gardens offers a turnkey office near I-95 and the Turnpike. West Palm Beach rounds out the mix with a remodeled, art-district-adjacent rental.
