Prospective buyers of Carlton House focus their sights on an active adult lifestyle (I.e., age-restricted to 55+) in a unique boutique community of only sixty-three units spread over 4 x four-story buildings on a magnificent campus. Accommodations range from one to three bedrooms - 1013 to 1550 square feet under air (UA), with expansive private terraces. Resident owners covet the spaciousness of the real estate footprint offering about 200' of direct Atlantic Ocean frontage, fronted by a nature preserve - ideally located on the east side of the A1A. Less than fifty yards on the other side of the coastal road, yachting enthusiasts can access allocated Intracoastal deep-water boat docks.

So, on entering the Carlton House Condo campus (or from indoor and outdoor living spaces), the aqua-centric vistas come at one from all sides. Condo owners covet the unobstructed seascape outlooks, waterway views of ocean-going yachts streaming back and forth, and exotic birdlife flying in and out of the green habitat. Indeed, South Florida's flowing foliage integrates with all this to deliver stress-releasing, colorful lawns, tall shading trees, and picturesque garden landscapes.   

The development is 1964 vintage - decidedly dated if left in original developer handover condition. However, we've noticed the MLS listings show significant renovations where sellers have taken advantage of low unit floor density (average of four per floor). Recent upgrades include high-impact windows and doors, gourmet kitchens, spa-like bathrooms, and open-plan remodeling that features:

  • The latest granite and stone materials.
  • Engineered wood flooring
  • Recessed lighting
  • Premium-fitted stainless steel appliances in custom cabinetry.
  • Floating vanities
  • Smart-home technologies. 

Lower, we'll see the MLS opportunities to buy reflect all, some, or only bits and pieces of the described modernization, resulting in a broad price variance.
 
Being in the boutique residential category with the upkeep of a robust activity program is not inexpensive. However, the benefits are considerable. Consider that monthly HOA fees of 93 cents per square foot of condo ownership cover lawn maintenance, building repairs, and insurance - and that’s only as a start. From there, condo owners have access to:

  • A private beach club furnished with loungers, umbrellas, and a heated seaside pool with an expansive sundeck for leisure and relaxation.
  • A water-tight 24/7/365 security system & allocated garage parking.
  • A multi-purpose clubhouse perfect for events and socializing, an outdoor grill area, boat docks across the road (mentioned above), and a well-equipped fitness center. 

Notably, this community - although stamped as "Active Adult" - is not as activity-centric as the same category options inland. Indeed, to the residents of Carlton House, it's all about the three big Ls - "Location, Location, Location."

Carlton House Condos For Sale


We do not have any properties available for sale in Carlton House.

Over two years of the ZFC MLS analysis on Carlton House Condo, we observed only four closed deals, ranging between $352,400 and $686,000, or, in valuation terms, $348 to $487 a square foot (UA). So, when gaps like this emerge (i.e., $139 per square foot UA), it translates to a possible $194,000 differential for a 1,400 square foot (UA) condo. That’s a significant difference in anyone’s language!

But of course, one would expect vista quality (e.g., unobstructed or obstructed sea views) and seller upgrades to create asset value. Nonetheless, the two big questions are - "By how much?" or "How do I know I'm not overpaying?" It can be confusing, especially when emotions enter the picture.
Therefore, we suggest contacting us to get a ZFC expert realtor in your corner, deploying our incredibly accurate appraisal formula to keep conversations on the right track. So, please give us the mandate to find and negotiate an exceptional condo in Carlton House in Highland Beach that meets your needs at the right price.

In addition, driving to golf courses, good schools (see below), clinics, and any one of two international airports (via the nearby I95) is a breeze.  

The ZFC data records demonstrate that Carlton House was one of only a few Active Adult communities on the beachfront. Although at significantly higher price points, we recommend waterfront towers Sabal Point and Sabal Ridge as must-sees. However, as mentioned above, the arena opens up significantly the further west you go:

Aside from 55+ neighborhoods, ZFC covers numerous luxury lifestyle options that welcome retirees with open arms.
