Overview
Description
“La Loma,” is one of John Volk’s most important Palm Beach estates. In 1929, when Volk was commissioned to build this grand three story Mediterranean Revival home, he chose to raise the elevation of the property to make the home stand out from Addison Mizner’s nearby Mediterranean Revival homes. The extraordinary detail and beauty of the home and stunning grounds make this home a truly one of a kind Palm Beach residence.
