Architecture & character
32 neighborhoods, mature landscaping, club-first living
BallenIsles delivers a wider range of product than most of its neighbors: condos and villas near the club, courtyard homes, and large golf-front estates, all behind guarded gates. The three courses, long-established landscaping, and a full rack of racket sports give it a settled, country-club feel that forty-plus years of resale has refined. It is a genuinely club-first community: ownership and membership are inseparable.

Market positioning & pricing
Entry in the $400Ks, medians near $1.85M, equity on top
Active listings, late 2025 to October 2026
Homes generally run from roughly $400,000 to $500,000 for the smaller condos and villas (a few as low as the $240,000s) up to about $5.5 million for estate homes. Recent October 2026 listings asked from $900,000 to $5.495 million with a median near $1.85 million, and single-family averages are often cited around $1.4 million. Because membership is required and equity-based, the real entry cost includes initiation and dues on top of the purchase price. These are dated figures, not guarantees; confirm the current market with Kelby.

District-assigned, verified per address
Public schools are assigned by address through The School District of Palm Beach County, and BallenIsles spans a large enough footprint that zones vary by village. 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.
