2017 was a good year for home sellers in The Lakes at Boca Raton. The average sale was a 2280 square foot 4-bedroom going for $411,000 ($184 per square foot) in less than 2 months. 40 homes sold for the year, 25 of them for $400,000 or more.
At the high end two homes in Cypress Bend sold for more than $500,000 with the top going for nearly $600,000. The 5-bedroom, 3600 square foot house at 18820 Cypress Bend Court sold for $590,000.
Only one house sold under $300,000 and it’s a small one at only 1300 square feet, more than 200 square feet smaller than the next largest transaction. 10383 Islander Drive in Amber Bay went for $292,500 with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. That works out to $230 per square foot.
While no home fits as the precise average for any neighborhood, 18974 Concerto Drive comes close. The 2220 square foot 4-bedroom home sold for $410,000.
The best apparent bargain of the year was 10839 Sea Cliff Circle, a 3000 square foot 4-bedroom that sold for $428,000 ($143/sq.ft.). An investor had bought it out of foreclosure for $353,000 in 2016.
