Single-story courtyard home on the 1st hole of Palm Beach National Golf Course in Lake Worth, Florida
Real Estate

This Golf Course Home Has Sky Ceilings and a Red Tub

Sitting directly on the 1st hole of Palm Beach National Golf Course, this Lake Worth courtyard home has genuinely impressive architectural bones — and an interior design sensibility Reddit described as almost surrealist. Painted sky ceilings, a circular red bed, and figural lamp sculptures are just the beginning.

A Multi-Generational Layout With Real Scale

The single-story home is built for multi-generational living: a 4-bed, 3-bath main house plus a separate 1-bed, 1-bath efficiency with its own kitchenette. The main house includes a library with 14-foot ceilings, wood paneling, and clerestory windows, a central kitchen with a pass-through to that library, and a private primary suite wing with 11-foot ceilings, a versatile exercise/sitting area, and a spa tub. A second wing holds two bedrooms with a cabana bath opening to a lap pool, and the 936-square-foot semi-detached garage is built for a serious car enthusiast or hobbyist.

Good Bones, Big Design Choices

Built in 1975, the home has the kind of original woodwork and stonework Reddit's more renovation-minded commenters pointed to as evidence of solid, lasting construction underneath the decor. One particularly detailed breakdown estimated that roughly $40,000-$50,000 in updates — refinishing floors, stripping black paint off the kitchen cabinets, removing faux marble cladding from the breakfast bar, swapping out one red tub surround — could bring the whole place into a more neutral style, while the standout sky ceilings stay exactly as they are.

The Internet Has Thoughts

Naturally, this listing caught the attention of Reddit's r/zillowgonewild community, who were deeply divided — some called it objectionable in every single detail, "almost an art form" in its commitment to bad taste; others admitted the painted sky ceilings are genuinely cool and said the whole house deserves more design like it. One commenter summed up the vibe as "mafia meets bordello," while another pointed out a pricey designer floor lamp shaped like a human figure that one Redditor tracked down online for around $1,500.
