Email Me Alerts for La Fontana

Condo developments in the beautiful Northwood neighborhood are still in close touch with Downtown West Palm Beach and deliver the significant advantage of an east-side N. Flagler Dr location on the Indian River (i.e., a section of the Intracoastal). These rare towers are Portofino and La Fontana (1969 and 1961 vintages, respectively).

Our focus here, La Fontana, is ten stories, 144 units ranging between 647 and 1,470 square feet under air (one to three bedrooms). Indeed, as only one of five sky-projects directly on the water, condos on the east side of the building contain eye-popping unobstructed aqua-centric vistas - a passing parade of birdlife and motor & sail vessels streaming back and forth (with the stunning backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean). Other residents in the building enjoy the natural South Florida flourishing fauna and flora, tall palms, and eclectic city sights/night lights.

2 Active Listings in La Fontana

A few condos for sale in La Fontana sold above $300 a square foot (UA) in the 2022/3 South Florida's hot real estate market, but most MLS closings (all pet-friendly with integrated high-impact windows and doors) ranged beneath that to as low as $200 a square foot (UA). That's startling for such an iconic location. But, of course, much depends on the level of seller remodeling and the residence's position in the building.

Please remember, we're talking about a construction well north of fifty years old, containing no extra-height ceilings (the latter emerging more and more in modern Downtown West Palm Beach editions) and having to share laundry facilities with other condos on the floor.

Real Estate Values

Notwithstanding, we have seen real estate listings with incredible outlooks through renovated wall-to-wall glass sliders and terrace railings. In addition, these featured hardwood floors, quartz countertops, reconfigured open-plan designs, gourmet kitchens, recessed lighting, and smart-home electronics. For example, a high-floor unit with all the bells and whistles described closed for $371 per square foot (UA) in April 2023.  

La Fontana HOA

Also, monthly HOA fees of 90 cents per square foot of condo ownership are significantly on the high side, even considering the following amenities:

• An impressive heated pool, expansive deck, and lawns on the Intracoastal.
• A well-equipped fitness center, recreation room, and ping pong room.
• 24/7 security with a full-time foyer attendant & concierge.
• Underground parking.
• Bike storage.
• Maintenance of gardens and lawns. 

Notably, rental protocols are relatively restrictive and thus an investor deterrent. Indeed, they're a far cry from HOA protocols of modern and contemporary towers with more liberal renting regulations. On the bright side, it gives budget-conscious prospective buyers insisting on water locations as a "must-have" requirement great opportunities at surprisingly genuine bargain values. 

West Palm Beach Location

Consider that as a La Fontana resident, you’d have Northwood village's shops and restaurants a stone's throw away and proximity to The Square shopping center, Kravis Center, and the lively activity on Clematis Street. Moreover, across the bridge, in minutes, you're on Palm Beach island.

Consequently, living in La Fontana apartments converges on high-end shopping (on Worth Avenue), and fine dining in scores of establishments, with easy access to public beaches, golf courses, parks, Intracoastal trails for miles on end, supermarkets, coffee shops, delis, galleries, beauty salons, and more. Also, good Palm Beach schools (see below), clinics, nature preserves, watersports of every color and shape, and an international airport around the corner.

Alternatives in West Palm Beach

Direct on-the-nose competition to La Fontana apartments comes from the next-door tower, Portofino. However, under $300 per square foot (UA) in post-2,000-vintage real estate is a tall order. Nonetheless, look at other Flagler Dr located buildings - The Slade, Villa del Lago, Villa Lofts, and Rapallo.
