The community in brief
Frenchman's Reserve at a glance.
Frenchman's Reserve is a guard-gated golf country-club community in eastern Palm Beach Gardens, ZIP 33410, built by Toll Brothers between 2002 and 2013 around an 18-hole Arnold Palmer Signature course. It holds roughly 447 residences across three product lines: about 341 single-family homes, 56 coach homes, and 50 custom homes ranging from roughly 2,450 to 11,000 square feet. Club membership is mandatory for every homeowner, and the 45,000-square-foot clubhouse, tennis courts, fitness center, pool, and spa run the social life.
Real-time availability is confirmed directly with Kelby: listings portals lag, and the best addresses in Frenchman's Reserve move before they are published.
Location & boundaries
East-side Palm Beach Gardens, minutes from A1A
Frenchman's Reserve sits on the city's east side, north of the PGA Boulevard corridor and a short drive from A1A and the Atlantic beaches at Juno Beach and Jupiter. The entrance is off the east-west arterial network between PGA Boulevard and Donald Ross Road, with I-95 a few minutes west. The Gardens Mall and Downtown at the Gardens are roughly 10 minutes north on PGA Boulevard, and Jupiter's Harbourside Place is a short drive north for waterfront dining.

Architecture & character
Toll Brothers product around a Palmer course
The community pairs golf, lake, and preserve views with Toll Brothers architecture across three tiers: coach homes, conventional single-family homes, and a custom-home collection. The Palmer Signature course anchors the center of the property, the clubhouse handles dining and social programming, and a CORE Club serves members' children aged 1 to 15. Landscaping is mature, streets are quiet, and the gate is staffed around the clock.

Market positioning & pricing
Entry near $1M, medians around $3M, club fees on top
Active listings and club pricing, 2025 to October 2026
The club's own real-estate guidance puts homes from roughly $1 million for coach homes to more than $12 million for the custom collection, while active-listing data from late 2025 through 2026 clustered between about $2.4 million and $10.5 million with a median sale near $3.0 to $3.35 million. Median association fees run roughly $792 per month. Because membership is mandatory, the true entry cost includes initiation on top of the purchase price. These are dated asking and closed figures, not guarantees; confirm the current market with Kelby.

Schools
Per-address assignment through the county district
Public schools are assigned by address through The School District of Palm Beach County, and boundary maps are published by the district rather than by community name. Confirm the mapped zone for a specific Frenchman's Reserve property with the district before relying on any assignment; Kelby can pull the current map for any address you shortlist.
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.

HOA, club & restrictions
Mandatory club membership for every homeowner

Effective February 1, 2026, the club reported initiation fees of $275,000 for full golf and $140,000 for social/sport, both non-refundable, plus a property-owners' association capital contribution equal to roughly a quarter of annual dues.

Flood zone & insurance
Inland of the Intracoastal, but verify per parcel
Frenchman's Reserve fronts golf, lakes, and preserves rather than the Intracoastal, so most homes sit outside the coastal high-hazard zones. Lakefront parcels carry their own mapped exposure, and flood insurance follows the FEMA zone for each property. Verify with FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and an insurer before offering.

New construction & pre-construction
A fully built community; custom rebuilds come to market
Completed
Frenchman's Reserve is built out. New construction here means the occasional custom-teardown or renovated estate that surfaces on the resale market. Confirm current opportunities directly with Kelby.

Investment & rental considerations
Club fees shape the rental math
The mandatory membership tier a buyer selects materially changes carrying costs, so rental yield depends as much on the club tier as on the property. Rental rules, minimum terms, and board approvals were not verified in this research; confirm them with the association before underwriting.
