The homes of Palm Beach Lakes
The neighborhood encompasses dozens of gated subdivisions (as well as Keiser University's private 100-acre Flagship Residential Campus) with 24-hour security and luxury amenities. Thanks to the presence of homeowners associations, its residential streets are lined with neat sidewalks and manicured lawns. Sitting atop each are uniformed Spanish revival ranch-style homes as well as two-story Mediterranean styles built in the 1980s. The exteriors are seen in colors like cream, yellow and orange, typically in a stucco material. Homebuying options are highly diverse here — from $200,000 for a condo to $430,000 for townhouses with lake views. Meanwhile, larger estates along the Bear Lakes Golf Course are listed at around $2 million. “It’s country club living no matter your price point,” Williams says. “Whether you’re single, married, have kids, or are retired, Palm Beach Lakes probably has the right home for you.”

The sounds of Palm Beach International
Though trips to the Palm Beach International Airport are convenient for those living within the community, its proximity to the community may be of concern to some. Considering it is an international airport, flights are regularly landing and departing from its runway. Though considered to be background noise for many, those who are sensitive to this noise should consider this before moving into the community.
