CARLTON HOUSE occupies a historic oceanfront address at 2701 S. Ocean Blvd in northern Highland Beach within Highland Beach, Florida — a private, 1.5-mile coastal enclave in Palm Beach County positioned along the iconic A1A corridor. One of South Florida’s most exclusive residential municipalities, Highland Beach is home to approximately 4,000 year-round residents who enjoy uncrowded Atlantic beaches, protected sea turtle nesting grounds, and direct Intracoastal Waterway access. Atlantic Avenue’s celebrated restaurant row, arts scene, and beach culture is 3 miles north in Delray Beach; Mizner Park and Boca Raton’s luxury amenities are 5 miles south — placing this address at the center of the Gold Coast’s most desirable corridor.

Built in 1964, Carlton House is one of Highland Beach’s original oceanfront buildings and home to a vibrant active-adult 55+ community of 63 residences. Private boat docks, a lakeside heated pool, jogging trails, and an HOA that covers cable, water, and trash create a self-contained, low-maintenance oceanfront lifestyle — a rare and increasingly sought-after 55+ coastal address in Palm Beach County.
