The community in brief

Avenir at a glance.

Avenir is a roughly 4,750-acre master-planned community on the western edge of Palm Beach Gardens, accessed off Northlake Boulevard west of the Florida Turnpike, with about 2,400 acres held as permanent nature preserve. In June 2026 the city approved the final 293 home lots, bringing the plan to roughly 4,050 homes as it nears build-out, and the Avenir Town Center was announced to open in summer 2026. Multiple builders are still selling active phases, from attached villas to custom estate lots running into the tens of millions.

Location & boundaries

West of the Turnpike, off Northlake Boulevard

Avenir occupies the city's far western edge, accessed off Northlake Boulevard just west of the Florida Turnpike, with its final sections along the Panther National and Northlake boulevard corridors. BallenIsles and the established city neighborhoods sit east of the Turnpike, and the Palm Beach Gardens city line runs nearby. The scale is deliberate: thousands of acres of preserve buffer the homes.

Architecture & character

Eight builders, one grand plan, 2,400 acres of preserve

Avenir was approved in 2016 as Palm Beach Gardens' largest new community in a generation, and its neighborhoods read as a portfolio of builder styles: GL Homes, DiVosta, Toll Brothers, Kolter, Kenco, and K. Hovnanian among them, from contemporary villas to traditional single-family homes. The Avenir Town Center, announced for summer 2026, adds retail and gathering space, and the preserved wetlands give the community a noticeably wild, green edge.

Market positioning & pricing

Villas from the $550Ks, custom lots to $20M+

Builder and resale pricing, 2025 to October 2026

Entry-level attached villas in neighborhoods like Crofton start in the $550,000s, most single-family homes run roughly $700,000 to $1.4 million, and custom estate lots list from about $2 million up to $20 million plus. One builder's current phase opened around $929,900, and the community's median sale price was approximately $1.09 million. These are dated asking figures, not guarantees; confirm the current market with Kelby.

Schools

District-assigned, verified per address

Public schools are assigned by address through The School District of Palm Beach County with published boundary maps, and Avenir's phases can straddle zones as they are added. Verify the mapped assignment for a specific property with the district before relying on it; Kelby can pull the current map for any address.

School boundaries change and are set by address, never by community name: verify current boundaries with The School District of Palm Beach County before relying on any assignment.

Access & commute

Northlake Boulevard to the Turnpike and I-95

Northlake Boulevard runs east from Avenir to the Florida Turnpike interchange and then to I-95, with the airport and downtown West Palm Beach a straight run south. The beaches at Juno Beach and Jupiter are a longer eastward drive across the city. Commute times depend on the hour; verify your own travel window.

HOA, club & restrictions

Master association with phase-level HOAs

Like other large master plans, Avenir layers a master association over neighborhood-level HOAs, with fees varying by phase and product type. Exact current dues were not itemized in this research and read Contact for current information; Kelby will review the fee package for any specific phase you shortlist.

Flood zone & insurance

Western ground, but preserve drains carry floodways

Avenir sits far inland of the coastal high-hazard zones, yet its wetland preserves and drainage systems mean some parcels carry mapped flood exposure, and flood insurance requirements follow each property's FEMA zone. Verify individual lots with FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and an insurer.

New construction & pre-construction

Active sales in final phases, town center announced

Under Construction

Status as of this research: Under Construction and actively selling, with the final 293 lots approved in June 2026 and builders including GL Homes, DiVosta, Toll Brothers, Kolter, Kenco, and K. Hovnanian active. The Avenir Town Center was announced for summer 2026. Phase availability moves quarterly; confirm current releases with Kelby.

Investment & rental considerations

New-community resale is still being written

Early Avenir resales are establishing the market floor as later phases deliver, which cuts both ways: early buyers priced ahead of the curve, and later buyers get a settled neighborhood. Rental rules vary by phase and were not verified in this research. Underwrite the specific phase with Kelby.
