In the heart of Royal Palm Beach is Village Walk, a neighborhood sought after for its luxury 55-plus communities, quaint single-family subdivisions and easy access to one of the city’s most popular parks. The community fans out around Commons Park, a recreational behemoth with amenities for casual fans of the outdoors and nature lovers. It covers nearly one-third of the neighborhood and is regularly used for city-sponsored events, making it a prominent feature of the community. The neighborhood is also near several major highways, making shopping, dining out and communicating convenient.
Luxury amenities at an affordable price point
According to Andrew Burr, an associate broker at The Keyes Company, the market here is starting to level out after a slow couple of months. "Six or eight months ago, there might have been one or two properties for sale in the neighborhood, but today there's eight, so we are definitely adding inventory," Burr says. "It's a fairly balanced market, but it's been the victim of HOA prices and insurance," he adds. There are several 55-plus communities, such as Village Walk, Strathmore Gate and Greenway Village, all of which have HOAs and resort-style amenities like clubhouses with pools and sun decks. Most homes in Village Walk and Strathmore Gate are attached custom builds with back terraces, some overlooking the canal. They tend to have between one- and three-bedrooms and sell for between $165,000 and $370,000. Greenway Village is a condo community with one- and two-bedroom units, some overlooking lakes or the canal. One-bedrooms start around $135,000, while two-bedroom units can go for more than $225,000. There are other non-age restricted condo and townhome communities, too, with two- to three-bedroom units selling for between $200,000 and $375,000. Single-family homes come in a handful of styles, the most popular being contemporary and Mediterranean-inspired ranches painted in neutral or pastel colors like sand and seafoam green. Most have three or four bedrooms and sit on mid-sized manicured lots. They sell for between $460,000 and $675,000.

Commons Park spans 163 acres
At the center of Village Walk is Commons Park, a 163-acre outdoor space with a slew of amenities. Along with traditional features like trails, small boat launches into lakes, playgrounds and picnic areas, the park has more unique offerings like a golf training center, a frisbee golf course and an on-site community center complete with a café and sporting goods shop. The community center was added in 2021 and has become a central location for community programming. "It's nice to have a common building that people can use," Burr says. "Instructors hold Zumba classes; people rent it out for arts and crafts.” Another popular park in the neighborhood is Bob Marcella Baseball Complex, a 20-acre space with fields and courts for baseball, basketball and tennis. There are also integrated playgrounds, picnic pavilions and trails throughout the grounds. The smallest park here is Veterans Park, a 6-acre outdoor space emphasizing outdoor entertainment with its amphitheater, picnic pavilions and splash foundation. It also has an on-site café with patio seating that overlooks the grounds.
The trail along Commons Park can be enjoyed by the residents of Village Walk.
