Westlake, Florida

Westlake is a newly incorporated, master-planned city in western Palm Beach County built around single-family neighborhoods, pools, and lakes — 62 of 78 active listings have a pool and 42 have water access. Families are served by schools including Golden Grove, Osceola Creek, and Seminole Ridge Community, while retirees gravitate to the 55+ Cresswind Palm Beach community. It suits buyers who want newer construction and space over an established, walkable downtown.

It sits in the mid-to-upper range for the county, with a median list price of $784,000 and an average of $304 per square foot. Active listings run from about $489,990 up to $1,429,000, and only 6 homes are currently priced above $1 million, so there's a broad middle rather than a purely luxury market. Property taxes run around $10,204 a year at the median.

The median list price is $784,000 across 78 active listings, but the range is wide — from roughly $490,000 to $1.43 million. Over the last 12 months, 163 homes sold at a median of $615,000, which tells you closed prices tend to land below current list levels. Most inventory is single-family homes averaging about 2,528 square feet.

It's a steady, balanced market: homes take a median of 44.5 days to sell, and sellers are getting about 98% of their asking price on average. With 163 sales over the past year and 78 homes currently active, there's healthy turnover without a frenzy. That 98% figure means well-priced listings hold value, but buyers still have room to negotiate on homes that linger.

Median property taxes run about $10,204 per year, reflecting the newer construction and current price levels. HOA data isn't consistently reported here, but as a master-planned city with many gated communities and amenity-driven neighborhoods, most homes carry association fees — always confirm the specific dues before you write an offer.
