Palm Beach National
Home to the state-of-the-art Palm Beach National Golf Club
Palm Beach National Golf Club is the centerpiece of this community. The 18-hole public course, often called "The Nash" by locals, was built by prolific golf course architect Joe Lee in 1962. In recent years, it's become a trendy hangout complete with Bluetooth speakers on carts, complimentary drinks for every birdie, a tiki food truck and a virtual Toptracer driving range. The construction of a new clubhouse is also currently underway and is expected to be completed in the Fall of 2024. It will include a new restaurant, patio, and coverage for the driving range. The golf course is the community's only sizeable outdoor space, but plenty of public parks sit just outside the neighborhood, including the 1,702-acre Okeeheelee Park. This massive space is one of Palm Beach County's most popular parks because of its wide range of amenities, including an equestrian center, BMX track, golf course, sports facilities and miles of walking paths. The park also has two lakes, one for leisure activities like kayaking and fishing and another for water skiing. The park brushes up against the neighborhood, but the main entrance is about 3 miles away. Smaller nearby parks include Greenacres Freedom Park and Samuel J. Ferreri Community Park, which feature playgrounds, multi-use lawns and shaded pavilions.
Custom ranch-style homes at an affordable price
Most homes here are stylized ranches with traditional and Spanish Mission architectural influences, ranging from neutral-colored vinyl-sided facades to stucco exteriors accented by arched windows and doorways. They tend to sit on oversized lots that max out around half an acre. Houses with three or four bedrooms are common and range from $420,000 to $735,000. There's also a 36-unit condo community called St. Andrew's Glen, where two- to three-bedroom Spanish Mission-style dwellings can sell for up to the high $300,000 range. Unlike the rest of the neighborhood, St. Andrew's Glen does have an HOA.
Plenty of shopping, dining options within "golf cart distance"
Aside from the golf course, the neighborhood is mainly residential. Still, there are plenty of shops and restaurants within a 3-mile radius of the community, including an Aldi, Target, Walmart Neighborhood Market and International Market. The Nassau Square shopping mall is about a "golf cart distance" away and offers a Publix, Dollar Tree and several local eateries. One popular spot is Brass Monkey Sports Bar & Grill, a hole-in-the-wall serving classic bar foods like burgers and flatbreads. The restaurant features two dozen flatscreens and a billiards table, creating a lively environment popular for nights out. Another nearby favorite is Mom's Kitchen, a locally run eatery popular for its classic American breakfast dishes.Holiday events hosted by the voluntary HOA
The community has a very active voluntary HOA, which hosts various events for kids and adults, including a Santa breakfast, Easter egg hunt and Halloween extravaganza. Another beloved tradition is the placing of American flags on front yards ahead of Memorial Day. "We do it 'stealth' at night. We get in our golf carts and get the flags up," says Hodach, the leading Realtor in the community for the past 10 years. The city of Lake Worth Beach also hosts several staple annual events, including its Street Painting Festival. The fair features live music and a food truck court, but the main event is the creation of hundreds of chalk art pieces drawn on the streets of downtown Lake Worth in renowned art styles like Cubism and pop art.
The neighborhood is zoned for the new Dr. Joaquin Garcia High School
The neighborhood is served by the School District of Palm Beach County, which includes Dr. Joaquin Garcia High School, the county’s first new high school in 20 years. The school is off to a strong start, offering a variety of specialty academic pathways, including a pre-med academy and an I.T. program. It has yet to be graded on Niche or GreatSchools.org. Other options include Liberty Parks Elementary School, graded a C-plus on Niche, and Okeeheelee Middle School, graded a B-minus. Goliath Academy is a popular nearby private school offering traditional "day school" education for high school-aged kids and adult education classes for those looking to earn their high school diploma later in life.
Proximity to Florida's Turnpike
The neighborhood is next to Florida's Turnpike, a major toll road that runs through the state, and Lake Worth Road, which leads to popular beaches like South Palm Beach, about 10 miles away. West Palm Beach is the closest major city, about 13 miles from town. Fort Lauderdale and Miami are much farther, sitting 42 and 63 miles south, respectively. Public transit does not run through the community, so residents depend on cars and golf carts to get around. However, air travel is easily accessible since Palm Beach International Airport is only about 11 miles away.
