A newly built Palm Beach estate has officially joined the ultra-exclusive lineup of homes along Billionaires Row — and it’s not holding back on size, security, or style.
The $84.95 million property at 1540 S. Ocean Blvd. offers something you don’t often see on the island: a private tunnel that slips under South Ocean Boulevard, delivering owners directly to their own stretch of sand.
Add in a resort-style courtyard, two full residences, and one of the most secure safe rooms in town, and you’ve got one of Palm Beach’s most formidable new listings.
Designed by Dailey Janssen Architects and developed by 1540 S Ocean LLC, the nearly one-acre compound blends Bermuda-style architecture with crisp, transitional interiors. Christian Angle of Christian Angle Real Estate holds the listing.
A quick look at the $85M estate
The estate spans about 16,500 square feet, divided between a five-bedroom main residence and a three-bedroom guest house. Altogether, the property offers eight bedrooms, 12 full baths, and three half baths — plus a cabana bath for poolside use. A six-car garage accommodates serious auto storage, while a whole-house generator keeps everything running smoothly during outages.
The home sits an impressive 20 feet above sea level, giving it both unobstructed ocean views and an extra layer of storm security.
Formal entry and flowing entertaining spaces
A double-height foyer with a sweeping stair hall sets an elegant tone from the moment you walk in. The main floor balances formal and casual rooms, with a sitting room and dining area on one side and an oceanfront family room on the other.
Chef’s kitchen with twin islands
The gourmet kitchen is designed for serious cooking and entertaining, with dual oversized islands, top-tier appliances, and a sunny breakfast nook.
With elegant spaces to entertain guests
Fitting for a property in this price range, there’s no shortage of spaces to entertain, including an elegant dining room, a fun-ready great room with a fireplace and pool table, and a snazzy home bar.
Lower level built for fun — and safety
Downstairs, the home opens up to a full entertainment suite: a wine cellar, game room, yoga studio, and a fireplace-warmed great room with a wet bar.
The standout feature? A reinforced concrete safe room lined with steel-plated walls and secured by a ballistic door — one of the most fortified private spaces in Palm Beach.
Private primary suite with oceanfront balcony
Upstairs, the primary suite claims its own ocean-view terrace. Inside, there are dual spa-style baths, two walk-in closets, custom built-ins, and a morning bar for coffee-with-a-view mornings. Each of the four guest bedrooms in the main residence has an en-suite bath.
With a 3-bedroom guest house
Across the landscaped courtyard, the three-bedroom guest house feels like its own resort. A spacious great room opens to a shaded loggia, while the upper-level VIP suite comes with a private terrace, sitting area, and dual-vanity bath.
A central courtyard with a pool and spa
Outdoor spaces are as carefully planned as the interiors. A central courtyard holds the pool and spa, surrounded by covered balconies and an open-air lounge.
With a summer kitchen for entertaining outside
A fully equipped summer kitchen makes al fresco entertaining seamless.
Rare tunnel to a private beach cabana
Perhaps the most unique feature is the tunnel under South Ocean Boulevard, which leads to a beachfront cabana with potential space for a plunge pool.
The private beach frontage measures 112.5 feet, giving owners direct access to Palm Beach’s prized shoreline without ever crossing traffic.
Prime location on Palm Beach’s Billionaires Row
The estate sits just minutes from Worth Avenue, Downtown West Palm Beach, and Palm Beach International Airport — a convenient location for both quick getaways and extended stays.
