The Cascades
Spanish Mediterranean homes are reasonably priced
The decorative facades and barrel-tile roofs of the community’s Spanish Mediterranean homes stand out. Driveways and attached garages are standard features. Meticulous landscaping and palm trees add curb appeal to streets designed for walkability and bike riding. Small ponds provide waterfront views. Prices typically range from around $400,000 to the low $600,000s. Monthly HOA fees are in the $500 range. “The prices are very, very reasonable,” says McNall, who added that they are lower than the neighboring 55-plus Valencia communities, “and the HOA fees are lower than most.” While the Atlantic coast is about 7 miles away, the community is far enough inland that flooding is only a moderate risk. However, wind damage is a major risk during hurricane season, and barrel-tile roofs are designed with this in mind.

Card room, arts and crafts room and athletic courts are featured amenities
Featuring a card room, an arts and crafts room and a billiard room, the clubhouse is the center of social activity, with holiday parties and events held there throughout the year. The clubhouse is also home to a ballroom that hosts theatrical performances. And for those who want to get in on the performing arts action, the community has its own theater group. “There are 978 homes, so it’s a large community with plenty of social opportunities,” McNall says. The community also offers a state-of-the art fitness center, a resort-style pool and 16 courts dedicated to popular racquet sports. “They’re big on pickleball and tennis, and they have on-site pros,” McNall says. Golfers can get a membership to the Westchester Country Club and have access to two 18-hole courses and a par-3 course. Ocean Front Beach Park is a premier coastal destination about a 20-minute drive from the community.

Restaurants, retailers can be found on nearby commercial corridors
Residents enjoy on-site dining, as the clubhouse’s Cascades Café offers standard American fare in a formal but laidback setting. More dining options are conveniently located along Jog Road on the community’s east side. Two Tomatoes Pizza at Piper Plaza is just blocks away. Dune Deck’s Mimosa Café is another popular eatery located near three banks and a Publix a little over a mile away. Super Target is about 3 miles away along Hagen Ranch Road, which runs along the community’s west side.

Two medical centers are close to the community
The community is car-dependent, but a pair of medical centers are nearby, and Florida’s Turnpike is even closer. Baptist Health City is a cluster of medical services less than 3 miles from the community, and Baptist Health Bethesda Hospital West is a large-scale medical center about 5 miles away. The turnpike provides quick access to neighboring cities and regional travel. Interstate 95, which connects all the major cities along the coast, is about 6 miles east of the community. The Boynton Beach Tri-Rail commuter train station is about a 20-minute drive. Palm Beach International Airport is about 20 miles from the community via I-95.The community's CAP Index score of 1-out-of-10 signifies an area with the lowest possible crime rate.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
