There goes the Orchid City neighborhood

The Orchid Estates neighborhood is more than half complete. The cluster of nouveau mansions is growing in the 200 block of Palmetto Road on the grounds of the old Orchid Society - just one block south of Churchill Road. (The American Orchid Society has moved to west Delray Beach.) While some of the houses have owners and pets, more than one is for sale. The four-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath house pictured here is listed by Sotheby's real estate division and described this way:

Orchid Estates masterpiece, Hacienda style custom built with exceptional upgrades throughout. Rear service road. Separate gst. House/cabana/office. Huge lot approx. 20,000 ft. 3 car garage, butler's pantry, high ceilings, mahogany windows/doors, impact windows, huge tumbled marble loggia, chicago bricked front/rear driveways, 6 burner Thermador range.
