Highland Beach South Florida. Best Oceanfront Condos in S. Florida?


Highland Beach City Hall
This is the time of the year that many people up North are starting to feel the weather change and as many of clients tell me, they begin to dread the start of another cold winter. Months of snow, ice and below freezing temperatures. More and more people are starting to look south to Florida for a winter home away from the dreary winter cold. While some like the leisure activities provided by golf at their back doos and country club living, for many others, the thought of waking up to a view of the breathtaking Atlantic ocean is something they dream of.
Highland Beach, Florida offers one of the best places to enjoy oceanfront living. Highland beach is a town located in the southern portion of eastern Palm Beach County. The Town of Highland Beach is small, an exclusive enclave of only 0.6 square miles with Delray Beach as the neighbor to the north and Boca Raton in the south. To the east is the Atlantic Ocean lies and the Intracoastal Waterway is on the west.
Intracoastal Waterway
Highland Beach is a residential community with a year-round population of 4,150 which increases to approximately 8,500 during the winter months
Highland Beach provides general municipal services such as police protection and a library, as well as water and wastewater utility service. The Town also provides, through contract, fire protection, code enforcement, building inspection, solid waste, and postal services. The Highland Beach Holiday Inn, right in the center of the town is a local landmark and one of the best places around for a great Sunday Brunch. Although Highland Beach is quite exclusive with stunning high end condos such as Toscana, Villa Magna and Beach Walk, there are also quite a few reasonable priced buildings that offer exceptional amenities, these include Ambassadors East and Ambassadors North, Trafalgar of Highland Beach and Townhouses of Highland Beach.
Prices in Highland Beach start in the low $200's to the $3million range for condos, some as large as 4,000 sq ft. There are also oceanfront homers and townhouses in Highland Beach. Any property with an oceanview will demand a higher price than an Intracoastal or city view. But, for many buyers in Hioghland Beach, the activity of the Intracoastal cannot be beaten. Sit on your balcony and watch an amazing parade of boaters every day. At night, the lights of Highland Beach and the adjacent cities of Boca Raton and Delray offer an exciting vista of life and activity.
There is no shortage of dining choices for residents of Highland Beach. At the north end, where the Villa Magna, Coronado, Toscana, Bermuda Beach, Ocean Terrace and many other boutique buildings are, residents are no more than a mile away for the bussling Atlantic Ave in Delray Beach where one can enjoy every type of dining style and all night music as well as regular street fairs and green markets.

To the south of Highland Beach, the refined Boca Raton Downtown offers gourmet dining choices, an amphitheater with regular free music performances, a regular Saturday green market and a mall with all the best stores in the country offering their wares. The buildings closer to the North include Dalton, Braemar, Beach Walk, Parker Highlands and many more.
In summary, if you are ready to escape cold northern winters and enjoy warm weather from September through April and you love the thought of being surroounded by water, ocean and Intracoastal, then Highland Beach, Florida is an option you should seriously consider.
For Realtors in the North who have clients desirous of a winter home in Florida, consider referring your clients to a Realtor who knows the area well and can be trsuted to provide excellent service to your clients who would consider Highland Beach or the surrounding areas of South Florida a viable option.
