Forest Hill Village is short drive from amenities

Residents of Forest Hill Village, in Greenacres, are only a short drive from stores, parks and schools. “In this high-priced, high-interest-rate market, reasonably priced homes stand out,” says Joni Lue Yat, Realtor with Re/Max Prestige and leader of the Lue Yat Team who has worked in the Palm Beach area for more than six years. “This is why Forest Hill Village appeals to many homebuyers. There is a good mix of homes there, from townhouses to single-families to condos.” Locals can explore The Mall at Wellington Green, about 5 miles away, or West Palm Beach, about a 9-mile drive. Students attend Palm Beach County School District, which earns a B-plus from Niche.

Ranch styles, condos and townhouses in Forest Hill Village

The green lawns of Forest Hill Village are decorated with palms and tropical landscaping, with wide driveways that break up the sidewalks. A rainbow of stucco ranch style homes from the 1970s and 1980s fill the neighborhood, with midcentury modern influences found throughout. “Whatever your style, most properties in the neighborhood are small, 1,000 to 1,800 square feet,” Lue Yat says. Prices tend to fall between $300,000 and $450,000 for a single-family, while townhouses and condos in Sherwood Village, a complex in the northwest part of the neighborhood, can range from $175,000 to $200,000.
