206 Lake Drive: Specific information.

Does location matter?

                                
                   206 Lake Drive is unique in many respects. No where else in the continental United States, is an area projected into the path
                   of prevailing balmy breezes. These tradewinds, so called because of their reliability to commerce in the days of sail, bring
                   nothing but fresh air with them after hundreds of miles of Atlantic Ocean. They bring releif to allergy sufferers and enjoyment to all.
                   The effect is to stabilize climatic variations, and with the proximity of the gulf stream, extreme temperatures are rare.

                   206 Lake Drive is located three blocks from the Singer Island municipal beach, considered one of the finest beaches in Florida.

                   206 Lake Drive is located 20 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport.

                   206 Lake Drive is half a mile to the Port of Palm Beach and the federally maintained Lake Worth Inlet and the Atlantic Ocean.

                   206 Lake Drive is close to the Gulf Steam and West End Grand Bahama, there is world class fishing and SCUBA diving on your doorstep.
                    
                   Due to the unique location of these waterfront properties, neighboring commercial motels have been razed
                   to make way for new luxury mansions and five star deluxe condominium marina developments. 
                   206 Lake Drive is one of the last original properties constructed on Singer ISland, and a founding residence of the Palm Beach Shores Town.
