New construction & pre-construction homes — Palm Beach County
Boynton Beach — Active Living and New Construction on Palm Beach's Coast
Boynton Beach is Palm Beach County's best-kept secret — a city with genuine coastal access, a rapidly improving downtown, and new construction options that span the full range from first-time buyer townhomes to resort-style active adult communities. It occupies the sweet spot between the higher prices of Boca Raton to the south and Delray Beach to the north.
GL Homes has long been one of the dominant builders in the Boynton Beach area, particularly in the western communities that have become synonymous with active adult living in Palm Beach County. Their Valencia brand has produced some of the most popular 55+ communities in all of South Florida — communities where the amenities are extraordinary and the social programming is genuinely a lifestyle.
But Boynton Beach isn't only a retirement story. The city's eastern corridor, near the Intracoastal and beach access, is seeing increased interest from younger buyers and families who want coastal proximity without coastal pricing. The downtown redevelopment project continues to add restaurants, entertainment, and energy to a waterfront that had been underutilized for years.
