1625 Ocean

The Roebling Research Desk · October 2026

1625 Ocean is a 14-residence condominium on the Atlantic at 1625 South Ocean Boulevard in Delray Beach. Completed in 2023, it is part of the city's recent generation of small beachfront buildings, with expansive terraces and contemporary residences replacing an earlier form of coastal accommodation.

Its appeal begins with that combination of limited scale and direct shoreline position. It is a useful address for comparing the experience of a substantial condominium with a beachside house: exterior space and ocean exposure are prominent, while the pool, fitness facilities and common property remain shared responsibilities.

Redevelopment on South Ocean Boulevard

The City's original application, submitted in October 2019, proposed replacing a 19-unit timeshare building with a 14-unit condominium. That history explains the development's place in the corridor: it is a redevelopment of an existing coastal property, with a smaller number of residences and a different ownership proposition.

County records identify the completed condominium under its full legal name and list 2023 as the construction year. An April 2023 conveyance in the County's record provides evidence of the completed residential phase. The distinction between the old site, the approved project and the present condominium is useful when reading older online references to the address.

Moss's project portfolio credits U.S. Construction and Randall E. Stofft Architects. The building's contemporary treatment brings broad glazing, substantial outdoor areas and a strong horizontal relationship to the beach into a relatively small residential collection.

The terrace is part of the plan

Jili's property portfolio identifies large private terraces as a defining feature of the 14 residences. The outdoor space deserves the same attention as the interior layout. Covered dining, an open sitting area and the connection from kitchen or living room all affect how much of the terrace becomes part of ordinary use.

The relationship between floor level and shoreline also changes the character of a home. A lower residence can feel closely connected to the pool and beach; an elevated residence places greater emphasis on the longer outlook. Within either position, corner exposure and the direction of the main rooms matter more than an undifferentiated waterfront label.

A completed sale at Unit 10 illustrates the scale of one configuration: the County records 3,159 square feet of interior area, with separate porch and balcony components. Its published property record describes three bedrooms, a den and three-and-a-half baths. This is an individual plan example, rather than a size range for the whole building.

Shared recreation within a small building

The documented common facilities include a beachfront pool and fitness center. With only 14 homes, those spaces are part of a compact residential environment. The building's scale also means that each apartment's exterior position contributes substantially to its identity: the arrival route, terrace, adjoining homes and pool relationship can differ even where room counts are similar.

Parking and arrival should be considered with the residence. A tour that begins inside the apartment misses the sequence of entering the property, leaving the car, reaching the elevator and arriving at the front door. That sequence is particularly relevant when comparing several small buildings whose photographs emphasize similar ocean views.

Relevant comparisons

Ocean Delray offers a nearby comparison with 19 residences completed in 2021. Both belong in a search for recent boutique oceanfront construction, but their mix of plans, garage arrangements and outdoor spaces should be compared directly.

1177 Moderne provides a beachside condominium alternative along George Bush Boulevard. Seagate Yacht Club Residences introduces Intracoastal views and a multilevel townhome form. For a detached-home search, the Seagate neighborhood places the building in a wider coastal residential context.

Reading a sale at 1625 Ocean

A useful comparable should retain the residence's floor, exposure, interior area, terrace configuration and condition. Developer-era transactions and subsequent resales also describe different stages of ownership. In a 14-home collection, a few unusually large or well-positioned sales can influence a building-wide statistic without describing every residence.
