The island
A barrier island, ocean to lagoon.
The Town of Palm Beach occupies a barrier island between the Atlantic and the Lake Worth Lagoon, across the bridges from West Palm Beach. Worth Avenue, The Breakers and the Lake Trail are here, and the Lake Worth Inlet at the island's north end separates it from Singer Island.
It is a small market at very high prices: 75 single-family homes closed in the last 12 months, 74 of them for $3 million or more and 47 for $10 million or more. With so few sales, each closing moves the medians, so read them as a guide.
Home Platform groups the island's sales by area. The North End had the most, 35, at a median of $9,300,000; the Estate Section had 15 at a median of $25,000,000.
