It’s not on the beach, but Seminole Manor presents residents with a different kind of waterfront: Lake Osborne and a series of canals. This collection of subdivisions in Palm Beach County, only 5 miles from the beach, draws retirees, families and more. “Seminole Manor is like a freshwater lake that attracts many fish,” says Siobhan Gallagher, a Realtor with Douglas Elliman who has worked in the area for nearly 15 years. The mostly residential neighborhood consists of gated senior living communities, mobile home parks and midcentury subdivisions that are open to anyone. Amid these subdivisions are canals that branch off Lake Osborne, where kayakers occasionally paddle through the narrow waterways.
Homes with direct water access and docks by Lake Osborne are popular in Seminole Manor.

Beach and baseball in Seminole Manor
At the center of the neighborhood, Santaluces Athletic Complex hosts tournaments at its four baseball fields. While the facility is a youth sports hub, it also offers freshwater fishing, a half-mile bike path and a playground. At the adjoining aquatic complex, locals leap from diving boards and swim laps at the outdoor pool, which is typically kept between 78 and 82 degrees all year. Locals can cast lines into Lake Osborne from the bank at Melear Park in hopes of hooking a bass. From Seminole Manor, it’s a 3-mile drive to Municipal Beach Park, 750 feet of public beachfront.

Senior communities and manufactured homes in Seminole Manor
In Seminole Manor’s gated senior living communities, midcentury manufactured homes surround ponds and the narrow canals that cut through the neighborhood. In the neighborhood’s non-age-restricted subdivisions, ‘70s ranch homes and mobile homes are common. A selection of condos and townhouses are scattered about as well. Two-bedroom homes can be purchased for as little as $40,000, while one of the three-bedroom waterfront homes on Lake Osborne can cost up to $850,000. Most home options are between the mid-$300,000s and the low $600,000s.

Gardening expertise at the Lantana Road library
Those who want to get into gardening, or further embrace the hobby, can check out the Sustainable Gardening Group that meets at the Palm Beach County Library Lantana Road Branch. It’s one of the library’s most popular programs, says librarian Katrina Brockway. Between 50 and 100 locals often show up once a month to hear guest speakers share how they can grow their own food, while others gather for the monthly seedling exchanges. A day rarely passes without some sort of event happening at the neighborhood library, from movie nights to afterschool storytime.
Santaluces Community High teaches cybersecurity, cooking
Seminole Manor is part of The School District of Palm Beach County, which gets a grade of B-plus from Niche.

B-rated Santaluces Community High School, also in the neighborhood, lets students join programs that specialize in one of eight career fields, including culinary arts and cybersecurity.

Weather concerns in South Florida
Some homes sit in federally designated flood zones around Lake Osborne and the canals that cut through the neighborhood. Homebuyers may need to purchase flood insurance depending on where they settle. FEMA rates the risk of a hurricane in Palm Beach County as “very high.”
Connecting to Miami via I-95, Tri Rail
Interstate 95 is just east of Seminole Manor, and motorists take the interstate if they’re headed north toward West Palm Beach or south toward Miami. The 60-mile drive to Miami can take up to two and a half hours depending on traffic. Palm Tram’s public buses stop along Lantana Road, so residents can hop on and ride to the shopping centers along Jog Road. Passengers can catch the Tri Rail train 4 miles away at the Lake Worth Beach station and reach Miami International Airport in a little less than two hours.
