Neighborhood Guide: Real Estate in West Palm Beach



West Palm Beach is a top destination to visit for the beautiful weather and easy lifestyle. Visitors from colder climates come to West Palm Beach to escape cold winters and bask in the year round warm weather. Even in the summer months visitors continue to flock here for the beaches, the many renowned golf courses, boating on the blue seas, and simply to enjoy the many tropical activities that make South Florida such an attractive destination. 

Although West Palm Beach is a well known area amongst tourists, it is still more of South Florida’s best kept secret in comparison to its well known counterparts of Miami and Fort Lauderdale. South Florida is most known for 3 main areas; Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach. These areas are prominent attractions for sun-seekers and popular amongst “snowbirds”. So what’s the difference between them you may ask? Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach are all vibrant cities in South Florida, but there are some distinct differences between the cities that make them unique in their own right. Miami, located in Miami-Dade County is a large city on the southeastern coast of Florida. It is known for its bustling nightlife, diverse cultural attractions, and vibrant Latin American influence. It is also home to many of the area's top professional sports teams and renowned entertainment venues. 

Fort Lauderdale is located on the Atlantic coast within Broward County, it is known for its sandy beaches, luxury shopping, and laid-back atmosphere. It's a great spot to enjoy leisurely activities such as fishing, boating, and swimming. It's also home to a number of upscale restaurants, and beachfront resorts. Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach are located about 70 miles apart.

West Palm Beach, located in Palm Beach County is known for its lush parks, cultural attractions, beautiful beaches, upscale shopping, family friendly environment, historic neighborhoods, and proximity to the nation's best country clubs and golf courses. 

West Palm Beach has a lot to offer that makes it stand out from Miami and Fort Lauderdale. WPB has beautiful beaches, a vibrant downtown area with plenty of restaurants and shopping, and tons of outdoor activities including golf, boating, tennis, snorkeling, and scuba-diving (to name a few) all while maintaining an overall relaxed atmosphere. The cost of living in West Palm Beach is lower than both Miami and Fort Lauderdale, and the city has a more easy and laid-back quality. The many parks and nature preserves offer plenty of opportunities for exploration and relaxation. Overall, West Palm Beach is not only a great place to visit but also to live, making it a great option over both Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Residents of West Palm Beach maintain easy access to both these cities through the Brightline train station located downtown. We see many Palm Beach residents, especially those with flexible office/work from home schedules, will prefer to commute to work in Miami or Fort Lauderdale using the Brighline rather than relocate.

THE COAST OF WEST PALM BEACH

With Downtown WPB neighboring the Intracoastal Waterway, a relaxing stroll along the water is literally steps away from your favorite restaurant and possibly your front door. Over the bridge on the other side of the Intracoastal is the coveted Palm Beach Island where you can enjoy the beautiful sunrise beyond the majestic waves and velvety sand of the beach. Downtown is less than 2 miles from the beach, not only do many of the buildings have views of the ocean but a morning stroll along the beach with your favorite coffee can be a part of your AM routine. If you don’t want to commit to a morning stroll along the beach, you have the option to meander along the Palm Beach Lake Trail instead.

Condos by the Beach in Palm Beach

On the west side of the island, closer to Downtown, the trail runs along the Intracoastal Waterway for a calming view of the water, the city, and gorgeous yachts while you get your steps in. The trail itself is over 5 miles long so you can go for the gusto or start small. Another main attraction in Palm Beach is the luxury shopping along Worth Avenue. Dotted with trees, hidden gardens, and beautiful architecture, Worth Avenue is an upscale dining and shopping district home to many luxury brands and one-of-a-kind boutiques, stretching from the Intracoastal to the Atlantic Ocean.



Experience Culture

West Palm Beach is also an oasis for nature lovers, from paddling through freshwater wetlands to birdwatching for rare birds only seen in South Florida. There is also a lot to explore for those who are culture-inclined. Institutional landmarks like the Norton Museum of Art and the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts remain beacons of cultural programming. Taking advantage of Floridian sunshine, unique destinations like the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens bring cultural experiences outside.

The landscape of the neighboring areas continue to improve and drive more interest to the city as a destination to call home all year round or live seasonally to enjoy warmer weather.

Historic Neighborhoods in West Palm Beach

If condo living isn't for you and you desire a more family-friendly residential lifestyle, West Palm Beach homes in historic neighborhoods are full of charm, with unique architecture, lush landscapes, and plenty of character. Some of the most popular and sought after neighborhoods include Old Northwood, Grandview Heights, Flamingo Park, and El Cid. 

Old Northwood

Old Northwood is especially known for its historic Mediterranean Revival homes and Mission-style homes  which reflect the historic development era of the mid-1920s made famous by Addison Mizner throughout South Florida. Many of these historic homes have been completely restored in recent years. 

 

Northwood Historic District West Palm Beach

 


Grandview Heights

Located in the heart of West Palm Beach, Florida, surrounded by high-rises right off Downtown, the Grandview Heights neighborhood is adjacent to many downtown landmarks, including Howard Park, the Norton Museum of Art, CityPlace and the Palm Beach County Convention Center. Being one of West Palm Beach's oldest neighborhoods, Grandview Heights was mainly built in the 1910's and 1920's, with many different architecture styles used, such as Spanish Mission, Mediterranean Revival, Craftsman, Bungalow, American FourSquare, Art Deco, Mission Revival, and Dutch Colonial Revival.

El Cid

El Cid on the other hand is probably the most prestigious historic community in West Palm Beach, located just south of the Downtown area along the Intracoastal Waterway, known for its large, stately homes with plenty of charm. Beginning in the 1980s and continuing for the past 25 years, The El Cid neighborhood has experienced a rebirth with the renovation and restoration of many of the District’s historic homes. The El Cid neighborhood in West Palm is quickly becoming the alternative to living on Palm Beach Island, staying on the mainland side, but with quick access to Palm Beach amenities.

Flamingo Park

Flamingo Park in the heart of West Palm Beach, is a great mix of historic homes, bungalows, and renovated homes just biking distance to The Square and Clematis St. These single family homes were built starting in the 1920’s and continue today.

The Southend

Another area worth mentioning is The Southend neighborhood also known as SoSo. It is the "new" hot neighborhood along West Palm Beach's waterfront on the south side of WPB. A great place to live, with a variety of restaurants and shops, and easy access to the beach and Downtown WPB. As for the real estate, The Southend has become sought after for families, and with a clear trend of smaller old homes being ripped down, to give way to new construction of larger more modern, liveable homes. Soso is west of South Dixie, along  Flagler Dr and runs from Southern Blvd to the Canal, before West Palm Beach becomes Lake Worth. The Southend, was mainly built in the 40's and 50's and features many "ranch" style concrete block homes from that era, a good amount of mid-century modern, and then a diverse architecture list from there - everything from ultra modern to Mediterranean. The area has become very popular with many homes being renovated as great restaurants and shops open along the Dixie corridor.

New Construction Condos in West Palm Beach

It's a very exciting time for new construction condos in West Palm Beach. There has been pent up demand for years, for many retirees and 2nd home buyers looking for  larger floor plans in a condominium in Downtown WPB. Traditionally, West Palm Beach condos have featured smaller floor plans which were developed with short stays in mind, as well as being very affordable. With that in mind, we did not have a lot of true luxury condos by todays standards. But in the last 10 years, there has been a hunger for larger, more liveable modern floor plans. Good news! They  are coming and here are the best new options below. 

South Flagler Corridor

We believe most people relocating to the area, especially from the northern states, are most excited about the luxury new-construction residential projects coming to West Palm Beach. The South Flagler corridor is quickly becoming the ultra-luxury condo address in Downtown WPB featuring only the most sought after condo buildings in the city. These different buildings are allowing, and making room for a completely new way of life in West Palm Beach, bridging the gap between timeless elegance, modern and contemporary design, all transplanted amongst an easy-going, breathable backdrop and lifestyle experience. Along the South Flagler section of West Palm Beach as I previously mentioned, The Bristol made way for some other ultra-luxury buildings to be built including La Clara, Forte on Flagler and South Flagler House all along the waterfront. 

 


La Clara

La Clara’s 25-story tower overlooks the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean with 83 bespoke 1 to 3 bedroom residences. These condos range from 1,500 to over 3,000 square ft, all featuring expansive private terraces. Located on picturesque South Flagler Drive in West Palm Beach, just over the Royal Park Bridge - midway from West Palm Beach's lively downtown city center and the renowned Palm Island. Residents won't have to choose between the two; they can have the best of both. The luxury of never having to leave the grounds will be made possible by the abundance of amenities and expertly designed interiors. The building is currently completely sold out as the final stretch of the construction is being completed. Residences elegantly transition from spacious private terraces to light-filled interiors. Hariri Pontarini Architects' exquisitely completed interiors reflect the clean modernism and genuine passion of La Clara's design. The finest materials are expertly finished, the best American and European brands are used for the fixtures and appliances, and every aspect of the design, from the aesthetic to the practicality, has been carefully thought out. La Clara combines the breezy luxuries of a resort with the comforting warmth of home, offering everything from a cutting-edge fitness facility and yoga studio to a beautiful lap pool with daybeds for lounging reminiscent of the Mediterranean isles. La Clara's amenities are ideal for hosting company for social gatherings or exquisite private parties. The amenities include well maintained gardens outside and a stylish lounge, dining room, chef's kitchen, and tasting room within. Completion for this building is set for winter of 2023.

The District at Northwood in West Palm Beach

 

WAREHOUSE DISTRICT


The Warehouse District in West Palm Beach is a vibrant and diverse area of the city. It is home to many shops and restaurants, as well as art galleries, performance venues, and more. The area is full of history and culture, and there is always something to do and explore. It is also known for its historic architecture, with buildings dating back to the early 1900s. For more than a century, South Florida's Warehouse District has embodied the region's creative, progressive, and communal character. This district, which now encompasses three city blocks and over 85,000 square feet, is home to a world-class food hall - Grandview Public Market (we love it there), cutting-edge creative offices, interactive stores, as well as a local brewery and distillery. Good evidence that innovative, new ideas may be both timeless and contemporary. Whether you're looking for a bite to eat or just to wander around, the Warehouse District is a great place to visit.
