Boca Raton's Southwind Lakes appeals to a variety of buyers
The community of Southwind Lakes, tucked into the western edge of Boca Raton, offers an appealing residential setting of attractively priced homes with low HOA fees close to an array of modern amenities. The community, developed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s, is next to Southwinds Golf Course and close to top-rated schools, plenty of shopping and dining and a sprawling regional park. “The neighborhood fits a multitude of buyers,” says James Lopez, principal of the James & Sean Group at Compass. “It’s great for first-time homebuyers, it’s great for growing families, it’s great for retirees because all the homes are one story, and it’s great for investors because you can rent right away and have immediate cash flow. It serves a wide variety of consumers, which is something you can’t say for a lot of neighborhoods in Boca.”

Southwind Lakes primarily features beautiful Midcentury ranch-style homes.

Homes are typically more spread out than in other neighborhoods
Midcentury ranch-style homes with driveways and attached garages line the neighborhood’s quiet streets. The area is landscaped with palm trees and other native greenery. Sidewalks front well-manicured yards, while in-ground pools are common out back. “You can get a sizable single-family home on a nice lot, as opposed to home after home after home right next to one another,” says Lopez, who grew up in the area. “The homes in Southwind Lakes are more spread out. Also, a lot of homes are on waterfront or golf course lots.” Prices typically range from the high $400,000s to the high $600,000s. HOA fees are minimal, just $75 per month. “And there are not a lot of strict rules and regulations," Lopez says. "You can have a boat or RV. That’s not very common in most neighborhoods.”
The community is far enough from the coast that flooding is not a concern. However, there is a risk of wind damage during hurricane season.

The high school is about a quarter-mile away. It’s right down the street; you can walk there.”
