Boynton Beach’s “dynamite” 55-plus community

Boynton Beach’s Leisureville stands out from other 55-plus communities in South Florida with low HOA fees and an everlasting seabreeze in the air. "It's a crow's fly from the most beautiful beaches in the world," says Desireé Cornelio, who has lived in Leisureville since 2010 and works as a broker associate with Hudson Realty. "People come here and try to find another neighborhood like this. They end up asking me if there are any others. With this price point and location? There aren't any like it. It’s dynamite." Boyton Leisureville's low HOA fee gives residents a carefree approach to suburban living. Services include sprinklers, lawnmowing and cable. Residents also get swipe-card access to the Community Clubhouse.

Homes “built like forts”

"The houses here are built like forts,” Cornelia says. They’re built so well that inspectors can't believe it. I mean, these homes are over 30 years old!" Leisureville's 892 homes were constructed in the late 1970s and ‘80s by Campenelli Construction, an award-winning, Massachusetts-based company. Six single-family home models are available for homebuyers to browse, including the Edgewood model, a ranch-style home featuring two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a garage and a sunny Florida room. The architectural designs of these properties are relatively simple, displaying Minimal Traditional influence with a couple of classic Florida vernacular features, such as smooth stucco siding. Multifamily homes, including single-story townhouses and condominiums, can be found in the community as well. List prices start at $129,000, about the cost of a one-bedroom condo, and max out just under $500,000, the cost of a waterfront two-bedroom, two-bathroom single-family home — which is Leisureville’s Challenger mode.

Leisureville’s clubhouses

Leisureville has three clubhouses, each a hub for activity and relaxation. Outside, residents soak up the sun by the pool, take it easy in the hot tub or compete on the shuffleboard courts. Inside the clubhouses are game rooms where residents play billiards and card games; they can grab a book or two from the bookshelf library. Classes and clubs gather in the clubhouses, too. Leisureville’s social calendar is packed, so folks can always try something new or get back into something they love. Volunteer work is a common pastime among residents as well. "What do people love about this place? The community and the camaraderie,” Cornelia says. Leisureville is less than a 5-mile drive from Oceanfront Park, Boynton Beach’s premier waterfront stretch. Cornelia says many Leisureville residents take friends and family there to spend a day by the sea.

Interstate 95

Leisureville is less than a mile from the nearest ramp onto Interstate 95, making it easy to get in and out of the city. Boynton Beach Boulevard runs along the community’s north side, so getting around the city is a breeze as well. PalmTran bus stops are on Boynton Beach Boulevard for carless commutes, but overall, Boynton Beach is a car-dependent area.
