Small town feel in the suburbs
About 11 miles south of West Palm Beach, still in the throes of South Florida suburbia, is the town of Lantana and the neighborhood of Ocean Breeze. “Even though it feels like the suburbs, living in Ocean Breeze provides a small-town feel,” says real estate specialist Laura Segura with RE/MAX Select Group Realty. She lives in Ocean Breeze and has over 20 years of real estate experience. “Lantana has its own police and fire departments and town council. Mostly, there are no HOAs, so boats and RVs are in people’s driveways. East Lantana is like a fishing town.”

Close to the water
The traffic on Dixie Highway is the only thing between the Ocean Breeze neighborhood and easy access to the Intracoastal Waterway. “People are out walking all the time. I can walk to the beach from my house,” Segura says. There is a walking path on the side of the bridge on Ocean Avenue. The price range of the homes is mainly from $300,000 to $500,000. Some homes could be as much as $900,000, but those are multi-family houses. On HOA-free streets, the architecture varies with ranch-style homes, bungalows, split-level and even two-story colonial revival homes mainly from the 1950s and ‘60s. “When I first moved here many years ago, nobody knew about the area,” Segura says. “That’s changing. Though, the prices are still lower than in Boynton Beach.” There are a couple of subdivisions with amenities and monthly homeowners association fees, including a neighborhood of townhouses and free-standing single-family homes. Fees can run from $175 to $350 a month.

Parks on the way to the water
Just off Ocean Avenue, on the western side of the bridge to cross the Intracoastal Waterway, there’s the public town of Lantana boat ramp. Across from that are two green spaces that have convenient water access. Bicentennial Park has a playground and picnic area, and Lyman Kayak Park has a launch for kayaks or similar watercraft and an observational dock. Further inland, Maddock Park’s amenities include a dog park divided into two areas depending on the pooch's size. The skate park is relatively small and has basic skateboarding obstacles.

An old house transformed into a restaurant
Close to the boat ramp near the bridge over the Intracoastal is a house from the 1880s that, for a century, was used as a regular residence. When the house changed owners in the late 1980s, it was transformed into a restaurant you can’t miss on the bridge's western side. The Old Key Lime House is painted lime green and has been a seafood favorite for over 30 years. Victoria’s Peruvian is a family owned neighborhood favorite restaurant with a homey vibe and traditional food from Peru. “I particularly like the soups, but everything is good there,” Segura says. Publix and ALDI are short drives, both located on Lantana Road.
