How would you like to live in one of Florida’s (heck, America’s) most desirable locations, be minutes from the Atlantic Ocean and Palm Beach County’s world-class beaches, near the serenity of expansive untouched natural preserves, with access to equestrian trails and facilities, superlative shopping and dining, all the while owning a private ranch-style home with acres(!) of land?

Are you also someone who prefers the privacy of country living and the freedom from the weight of thick HOA rulebooks, telling you what you can and can’t do in your own backyard?

Do you like communities with unique character, where no two homes are alike?

Then, Palm Beach Country Estates (unincorporated in the Northern Palm Beach County but often ascribed to the city of Palm Beach Gardens) may be an ideal choice for you!

Each estate in Palm Beach Country Estates is custom built on a plot of land that’s at least 1¼ acres. Plenty of room for families with small children who don’t want their kids stuck at home all day and for animal lovers, who own tiny lapdogs to mighty horses. Whether you want to build your own private fire pit, a sprawling masterpiece of a treehouse, or a wrap-around porch with a decked walkway to a sun-filled breakfast gazebo, you’ll find no shortage of space here, in Palm Beach Country Estates.
