401 Worth Avenue

The Roebling Research Desk · October 2026

401 Worth Avenue is a small condominium at the northwest corner of Worth Avenue and Cocoanut Row. The address places the emphasis on living within Palm Beach’s established shopping and dining district, with substantial apartments above a compact street presence. It merits consideration by buyers who want a central island home with outdoor space and a manageable arrival sequence.

Residences and outdoor space

A historical corner-apartment offering describes a large living area, high ceilings, a library that could function as a third bedroom, and a terrace wrapping the apartment. It also records three garage spaces. These are useful examples of the possibilities within the building, rather than features promised with every purchase.

That library-versus-bedroom distinction is particularly relevant here. A buyer who uses Palm Beach mainly with a partner may value a separate reading room or office more than another sleeping room; frequent visitors may change that calculation. Evaluate the existing doors, windows, bathroom access and circulation before treating a marketing alternative as an approved conversion.

A wraparound terrace also deserves a room-by-room review. Different portions can serve dining, seating or a quieter retreat depending on their exposure and relationship to the interior. The useful question is how the outdoor area works with the principal rooms, rather than simply how much perimeter the apartment occupies.

Services and location

Inspected property information describes a three-story building with an elevator, door service and a full-time manager. In-unit laundry and multiple parking spaces are documented for the sampled apartment. The practical appeal is a relatively small residential setting with building services close to Worth Avenue’s shops and restaurants. Confirm the current staffing schedule and the parking allocation for the residence under consideration.

The corner location is part of the experience. Include the street-facing terrace, garage entrance and walk to your regular destinations in a visit. Proximity to private clubs or other neighboring facilities does not establish membership or access rights with the apartment.

What to know before buying

Reconcile the plan, the measurements and the parking assignment. Published records for the sampled home distinguish interior area from a larger total that includes additional space. A current measured plan is more informative than comparing headline square footage alone. Review any bedroom reconfiguration and terrace work against approved plans, and establish whether each parking space is deeded, assigned or otherwise controlled by the association.
