The Best Palm Beach County New Construction Gated Communities

While Palm Beach County isn't short on established homes with classic architectural styles, many prospective home buyers who are new to the area prefer the look and feel of brand new construction. And if you're truly set on a recently built home, the only thing better than new construction is new construction inside a gated community.

Simply put, a well-built new construction home combined with the security of a gated entrance allows homeowners to feel safe and secure, and most modern new construction gated communities also feature a wealth of common lifestyle amenities that can range from a clubhouse and resort-style swimming pool to sport courts and a community golf course.
