Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

It's one of northern Palm Beach County's most established communities, organized around golf, green space, and gated neighborhoods. Families are drawn to schools like Palm Beach Gardens High School and Timber Trace Elementary, while the 141 golf communities on the market anchor the country-club lifestyle. With 506 homes offering a pool, outdoor living is a year-round expectation.

It sits on the higher end for the region, with a median list price of $874,995 and average pricing around $528 per square foot. That said, list prices span from $8,200 to $45 million, so there's genuine range — 276 of the current listings are above $1M, and you can browse by price to find the more accessible tiers.

The median list price is $874,995 and the median home runs about 2,172 square feet at roughly $528 per square foot. Over the past 12 months, 1,773 homes sold at a median of $825,000. Single-family houses make up the bulk of inventory, with condos and townhomes filling out the more affordable end.

There are 624 active listings, and homes take a median 62 days to sell — a pace that gives buyers room to negotiate. Sellers are getting about 95% of asking on average, so realistic offers are landing. Keep an eye on just reduced listings for the best openings.

The median HOA fee runs about $379 per month, which is typical given how many properties sit in gated or golf communities. Median annual property tax is around $7,903. Fees vary widely by neighborhood, so compare carefully when you tour gated communities.
