Homes For sale in Baywinds emerge from a 24/7 gated Active Adult (i.e., 55+) community west of the Turnpike bordering the expansive Grassy Waters wildlife and nature Preserve to its north side. Notably, it’s only 10.6 miles from Flagler Drive in West Palm Beach Downtown (WPBD) and the Intracoastal lagoon-like waterways. On the campus, 1,082 residences cover hundreds of rustic acres on a real estate footprint containing freeform sparkling lakes that wind through flourishing tropical foliage and tall indigenous trees. As a result, aqua-centric and colorful garden vistas greet homeowners from their backyards, living rooms, sidewalks, and many walking trails.
Lennar, a reputable developer in the state, built the neighborhood between 2001 and 2006, embracing a diverse range of coastal Mediterranean-styled constructions that include single-family houses, coach homes, and villas. Open floor plans are a consistent feature delivering a low-maintenance lifestyle, with accommodations for all tastes as follows:
Of course, all homeowners of Baywinds in West Palm Beach are there for the stimulation and the social interaction 55+ suburbs traditionally offer. In this regard, nobody is disappointed. Consider the following for monthly HOA fees of only $500 per residence, supervised by a full-time on-site property manager:
A 7,000 square-foot wifi-serviced clubhouse offering community members access to:

Lennar’s handovers to homeowners included upgraded ceramics and stainless steel appliances as standard features. However, some MLS listings offer buyers significant upgrades, such as the latest marbles, quartz, granites, and engineered wood on floors and other surfaces. In addition, sellers installed smart-home electronics, designer lighting, floating vanities, and high-impact windows. In a few cases, SF houses provide mosquito-net-enclosed private pools and summer kitchens. In contrast, many show little to zero remodeling on top of the original packages.
Therefore, it's unsurprising that home prices on the MLS closed in 2022/23 between $200 and $315 per square foot (UA), depending on the unit type, vistas, position on the campus, and, of course, renovations. So, with a $115 differential hanging in the air (a price gap of over 50% on the lowest metric), you need an expert ZFC realtor to help navigate negotiations. We make a massive difference that saves our 55+ clients thousands of dollars. Why? Because we know this development like the backs of our hands. Thus, we ensure you don't overpay for relatively less asset value (versus other listings). In addition, our services as a buyer’s representative are free in South Florida, where sellers pay 100% of agents' commissions.
Leaving Baywinds doesn't put residents in the wilderness. Who says you can't live a luxurious, Active Adult lifestyle and not participate in the New Urban Living trend simultaneously? The nearby sophisticated commercial infrastructure provides supermarkets, restaurants, parks, gas stations, bank ATMs, beauty salons, golf courses, great schools (see below), and clinics - every convenience that makes metropolitan life comfortable. Traveling to West Palm Beach airport or the heart of WPBD (i.e., Flagler Drive, Clematis, and The Square Shopping center) takes less than twenty minutes. Once there, it's a hop, skip, and jump to high-end shopping on Worth Avenue, miles of Intracoastal bike paths, more restaurants, boat docking, and relaxing on the beach.
