UNPARALLELED DESIGN UNMATCHED CONSTRUCTION
Sold for a record breaking price of $16.2 million in July 2021, 6717 S Flagler Dr is one of the most distinctive properties ever built in Palm Beach County. 6717 S. Flagler Dr is an estate compound that maximizes the tropical nature of South Florida and the spectacular views of the Intracoastal waterway and the ocean beyond. Facing the estates on Billionaire’s Row, 6717 S Flagler Drive offers an unobstructed eastern view of the island of Palm Beach. Sunrises are spectacular. Sunsets are even better. As the sun goes down, it casts an amazing glow across the entire island. Nights are magical as the moon rises and reflects on the Intracoastal.
Luxury Resort Living Without Compromise
This 13,887 square foot three-story compound is an architectural masterpiece. Inside there’s a cantilevered glass and stainless-steel staircase overlooking the Intracoastal to the east and a backlit glass elevator to the west which both transport you to the 2nd floor. Featuring six bedrooms, ten bathrooms, and two powder rooms. The house also has a private one bedroom guest house, a home office, and a four-car garage (upgradeable up to eight cars).

Rain or shine, cook and dine outside around the main summer kitchen with a retractable roof. Take a siesta and watch TV, read or just nap on one of the two covered loggias. In the evening, have cocktails around the 3rd floor rooftop lounge with its own outdoor kitchen, bar, and heated glass spa floating over the Intracoastal. There’s never been a better time to stay at home.
The gourmet kitchen features top of the line Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, beverage centers, espresso makers and more. And for a change of scenery, just cross the street to your gated deep-water dock, hop on your boat and take a cruise up the Intracoastal.
