Just under fifty homes sold in The Oaks in 2019, nearly all of them priced between $750,000 and $1.7 million. Twenty-six of the forty-seven sales were for less than $1 million.
The highest price of the year was $2.275 million for 17591 Cadena Drive. Built in 2018, the house has seven bedrooms in nearly 6800 square feet with a gorgeous pool deck and pool overlooking a corner lake view.
That was an outlier. The top otherwise included four homes priced from $1.5 million up to $1.675 million, all over 6000 square feet. The largest was 9551 Grand Estates Way with over 8400 square feet at $1.66 milllion. It was originally listed for over $2.6 million, then taken of the market, relisted for $1.66 million and promptly sold.
At this writing there are 32 homes listed for sale in The Oaks. That’s a good sign for sellers as inventory is down from our last report. Eleven are listed at prices below $1 million. Other than a bank-owned home listed at $743,000, the lowest price is $800,000 for 17928 Villa Club Way with four bedrooms and three bathrooms in 3200 square feet. Five homes are listed optimistically at prices of $2.2 million to $2.4 million. Since only one home sold in all of 2019 for over $2 million, these sellers may have to wait a while.
Two homes sold in 2018 at just over $2 million with two more selling close to $1.9 million, so there’s some hope. The low end this year is up as there were two sales in 2018 under $700,000. On the other hand last year less than half the sales were under $1 million. There were 48 transactions last year, and 47 so far this year.
Four listings are in pending or backup status at this writing, one listed at $750,000, two at $1.2 million and one at $1.48 million. Two of the four just went under contract a few days ago. The other two have been lingering.

The lowest closing for the year was at $15,000 for a unit in Cornwall, but other than that the prices started at $31,000 for a 1-bedroom in Dorset. The lowest sale price for a 2-bedroom was $50,000 with three units going at that price, two in Dorset and one in Preston.
In the 4-story buildings in the central part of the development, most sales started at $55,000 for 1-bedroom units (Cornwall and Wolverton).

The highest priced 1-bedroom sold in Yarmouth for $88,000, so for flippers, 2-bedrooms have a lot more upside in Century Village.
As of December 25th, 121 condos were listed for sale with prices from $45,000 for a 1 bedroom 1 bath model in Brighton to $315,000 for a 2-bedroom in Yarmouth.

Two homes closed in Lexington Estates in September, 22181 Cressmont Place for the very low price of $315,000, and 22330 Rushmore Place for $525,000. That $315K price is so low it could be a typo.

Warren’s latest report on Boca Falls, Boca Winds, Loggers’ Run, Mission Bay, Palmetto Pines and Boca Springs, Boca Woods, and a little more.
Boca Falls
Boca Falls inventory grew slightly now with 18 homes listed, with 5 sales in the month of August. The biggest sale was at 21839 Marigot Drive in the Crystal Pointe subdivision at $765,000. The home has five bedrooms in 3800 square feet of space with some gorgeous features (below).

The other four homes sold with prices from $545,000 to $590,000. That $590K home is the most startling, a 4100 square foot palace in the premium Estates subdivision that was originally listed for $710,000.
21248 Rock Ridge Drive sold for $590,000, down from the $685,000 the seller paid in 2009. Image Google.
The closing price is nearly $100,000 less than the owner paid for the house back in 2009, when the market was down after the foreclosure crisis. According to the listing the house has some great features inside including a gourmet kitchen, but there are no interior photos included. Maybe there were problems inside but the listing doesn’t show that.
Of the 18 homes listed, prices run from $445K to $800K.
Boca Winds
Boca Winds has 15 homes listed again this month, and only two of them in Ashley Park. Prices seem higher with the lowest listing at $378,000.
22328 Siesta Key Drive is listed for $649,000. Image by Google.

The number of homes for sale is steady in Loggers’ Run as well. There are now nineteen listings including six in the Timberwalk townhomes section.
Single family home listings start from $375K to $405K in Country Landings III.
At the high end there are three homes for sale including a possible bargain at 11629 Kensington Court, listed for only $539,000. The listing does not indicate it’s bank-owned but it appears to have been foreclosed earlier this year and is owned by an LLC.
Another three homes are listed in Island Lakes with prices from $500,000 to $550,000.
Timberwalk townhome and villas list from $244,000 up to $295,000.
Eight homes sold in August. Two in Timberwalk sold for $245,000 and $250,000.

There are eighteen homes actively listed for sale at this writing. Fifteen are single family homes including six in the Sonata subdivision and four in Ventura. There are also two townhomes listed in Reflections and one in Las Flores, with all three priced in the low $300K range.
Single family home list prices start around $380K in the gated Regatta and Ventura subdivisions, with 10791 Avenida Santa Ana optimistically priced at $649,000 for a 2600 sq.ft. house with no waterfront on an odd lot in The Isle. It’s very nicely remodeled with gorgeous features and a new roof, but $250 per sq.ft. still seems high for a 30-year-old house.
Palmetto Pines and Boca Springs
August saw only two closed sales in Palmetto Pines and one more in Boca Springs, all under $400,000.
10076 Country Brook Road sold for $381,000 (4 beds, 2300 sq.ft.)

The highest price, and the only one over $700,000, was 19565 Havensway Court at $775,000. The house has 6 bedrooms in 3500 square feet on one floor. It’s a cul-de-sac lot with a wide lake view.

There are four active listings at the moment, priced from $490,000 up to $609,000. One listing expired recently after 3 months on the market.
Lakes at Boca
18982 Adagio Drive sold for $400,000. Image by Google.
The Lakes at Boca Raton had a busy month with six sales, two of them at $400,000: 18982 Adagio Drive (4 bedrooms, 2700 sq.ft.) and 10532 Plainview Circle (3 bedrooms, 1700 sq.ft.).

One listing failed. 18939 Red Coral Way expired after it sat on the market for a year without selling, and has relisted it. The owner has been trying to sell the house for over two years, sticking with the same Broward-based real estate agent. That choice might be an ethnic thing. Also the listing indicates it’s tenant-occupied which can make it harder to sell.
Boca Chase
Boca Chase West
