About this home
Find similar homesExperience unparalleled luxury where the elegance of a Mediterranean villa meets breathtaking waterfront views and the vibrant salt life of Delray Beach. Welcome to Dolce Vita Salata, an extraordinary, fully furnished estate offering the perfect blend of sophistication, comfort and fun, thoughtfully designed for entertaining, relaxing and creating unforgettable memories. Set along 90 feet of pristine Intracoastal frontage, this exceptional waterfront home captures panoramic water views and embraces the very best of South Florida living. Step outside onto the expansive pool deck, where a fully automated heated saltwater pool and spa create a private resort-like setting. A beautifully furnished gazebo offers the perfect place for waterfront dining and entertaining, while automated lighting transforms the property after sunset. For boating and watersports enthusiasts, the location is hard to beat. A private boat lift puts the water directly at your doorstep, with immediate access for cruising, fishing, tubing, skiing and wakeboarding. Downtown Delray Beach is approximately one mile away by car or boat, while both the Boca Raton and Boynton Beach inlets are approximately 20 minutes away by boat. For those who love to cook and entertain, the culinary experience is equally impressive. The spectacular, fully equipped kitchen features a GE Monogram six-burner gas range, secondary range and an extensive collection of chef-inspired equipment. A standout feature is the imported Italian Alfa Forni Moderno 3 Pizze, a hybrid wood-and-gas pizza oven capable of reaching approximately 1,000 degrees perfect for unforgettable evenings of cooking and entertaining. Just outside the kitchen, the experience continues with raised cedar gardens by Farmer Jay Pure Organics, offering a seasonal harvest of fresh herbs, greens, heirloom tomatoes and vegetables. The property's emerging tropical fruit forest provides another unique touch, with a seasonally dependent bounty that includes mangoes, Hass avocados, figs, mamey, sapodilla, peanut butter fruit, jaboticaba, lemons, limes and more. Privately positioned on a cul-de-sac just one lot from the point, Dolce Vita Salata is more than a waterfront residence. It's a home created to be experienced—from mornings on the Intracoastal and afternoons beside the pool to garden-fresh meals, sunset cocktails and evenings spent entertaining by the water. The sweet life meets the salt life right here in Delray Beach.

What buyers ask about this home
What are the estimated monthly carrying costs at 961 Banyan Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33483?+
Property tax (after sale): $5,815/month est.; homeowners insurance: $843/month est.; HOA: $0/month. Fixed ownership costs before a mortgage: $6,658/month est. Principal and interest: $29,836/month; PMI: $0/month. Total for the payment scenario shown: $36,493/month est. Flood insurance is not included. Estimate only, not guaranteed. Verify before you buy or sell.
Will property taxes go up after I buy 961 Banyan Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33483?+
Usually yes. In Florida the assessed value resets to market value in the year after a sale, so the seller's current tax bill is rarely what a new owner pays. Budget roughly 1.8–2.0% of the purchase price annually until you file for homestead exemption and the Save Our Homes cap (or the 10% non-homestead cap) starts limiting increases.
Does 961 Banyan Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33483 need flood insurance, and what drives the premium?+
Most of Delray Beach sits in a FEMA flood zone, and lenders require flood coverage in high-risk zones. Premiums are driven by elevation certificate, flood zone, roof age and shape, and whether the home has impact windows or accordion shutters. Ask for the current declarations page, the four-point inspection and wind mitigation report early — they set your real cost of ownership.
What should an inspection focus on for a home like 961 Banyan Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33483?+
In coastal South Florida, prioritize roof age and permit history, whether windows and doors are impact-rated, the seawall and dock condition on waterfront lots, drainage and elevation, plumbing type, and any open or expired permits with the city. These items, not cosmetics, drive both price and insurability.
What extra costs come with the waterfront at 961 Banyan Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33483?+
Waterfront ownership adds seawall maintenance and eventual replacement, dock and lift servicing, higher flood and wind premiums, and salt-air upkeep on exterior finishes and equipment. Confirm bridge height and water depth at low tide if you plan to keep a boat.
Is there room to negotiate on 961 Banyan Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33483?+
This listing has been on the market 0 days. Leverage comes from days on market, price history, comparable closed sales and the seller's motivation — not from a fixed percentage. I pull the full history and the true comps before we write, so the offer is built on what the property is actually worth today. Call or text (954) 562-1798 for that analysis.
