About this property

House on a Canal, walk to Zoo, Science Museum & Park

NEW LISTING. This newly renovated 4 bedroom, 2 bath house is a nature lovers paradise! Located directly on a canal you can walk out the back door and witness all of South Florida wildlife up close and personal. Inside you'll find a bright open space with tons of natural light.

The master bedroom has a king-sized bed, HD TV, and its own separate AC unit. The 2nd bedroom has 2 full size beds while the 3rd bedroom has 2 twins. Both of these rooms include large closets with plenty of space. The front room can be used as a 4th bedroom with a pull-out full-size futon, or as a virtual office.

The kitchen is fully equipped, and the house is stocked with all necessary linens, towels and paper goods. Xfinity cable and strong, reliable wireless internet are provided throughout the property. There is also a full washer and dryer and a propane BBQ grill.

The canal, located directly in the backyard, is home to several different species of South Florida wildlife. The most abundant of which are the large green iguanas that love to sun themselves on the deck and grass. There are plenty of fish in the water so grab your poles and reel in some Sunfish, Largemouth Bass, Peacock Bass, Snook, Tarpon, Redfish, Mangrove Snapper and many other popular species. In addition, you may come across several types of exotic birds, turtles, otters, lizards and frogs just to name a few.

The house is just a short walk (about a half a mile) to The Palm Beach Zoo, The South Florida Science Center and Aquarium and Dreher Park. It is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized in between each tenant and all linens are exchanged with freshly washed replacements.

Note: The garage is not accessible to tenants. It is locked and used for owner storage.

Great for families no doubt!

This home was perfect for our family’s vacation! There was plenty of room for relaxation and entertainment, and the beds were super cozy! It is centrally located in West Palm Beach, which made it easy for us to get to various attractions in the area. The owner was very responsive and easy to contact for assistance when needed. The price was more than fair for what we received. We would definitely stay here again!

Clean and functional but lacked basics like a dishwasher, washer and dryer.

It was clean and functional for 7 adults. The kitchen table could be larger and updated. The refrigerator filter needed changing. The backyard was a nice addition, as it is on a canal with wildlife.

Walking distance to National Croquet Center

Photos accurate. Spacious for 4 adult guys or gals going to a croquet tournament. Comfy beds. Relax on small patio watching water, birds, iguanas, and jets in the distance taking to the sky. If you don't want to drive, reasonable Uber rates to Publix, Norton Museum, Palm Beach County History Museum (a must see! and free), and downtown Palm Beach. Summit is busy, but we were up and about just as morning traffic started.

Spacious rooms

Host was great and extremely informative and accommodating. House was comfortable and very spacious. Despite the cob webs on the ceilings and left behind food in the cabinets which attracted something that chewed through the packaging. This place was excellent for us. We would definitely love to stay again the next trip down. It was on a main road with easy access to everything and very quite neighborhoods. We enjoyed everything. Chris was very responsive with our questions and concerns. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone with a big family like us.
