Community at a Glance
The official county packet, printed page 102 ↗ establishes the historical planning figures and redevelopment context. A current completed-home census and association-certified counts remain unverified.

The original neighborhood, approximately 389 residences on the historical planning basis. Focus on the condition of the original home, replacement of major systems, permitted improvements and the services assigned to its HOA. The checked Monarch Court listing is recorded as built in 1999.
Read The Preserve guideThe later phase, approximately 324 residences on the county’s approved planning basis. Compare original builder specifications, subsequent improvements, warranties and lot position. The checked Francisca Club Lane listing is recorded as built in 2022.
Read The Lakes guideThe guides keep section-specific home and cost examples separate. Neither replaces the original plan, survey, inspection or current association package for a particular property. A complete model and floor-plan inventory has not been verified.
Amenities & lifestyle
Current Polo Trace MLS examples list a clubhouse, pools, fitness center, restaurant, tennis, pickleball and trails. Visit the facilities you expect to use regularly. Check the route from the home, availability at your preferred time and whether lessons, classes, guests or dining create additional costs.
The separate Polo Trace Swim & Racquet Club entity is an important part of the ownership questions. Ask for its current rules and charge schedule. Exact current court counts and restaurant credit or minimum terms have not been verified, so they are not promised here.
HOA structure, costs & membership
Florida corporate records show active entities for Polo Trace Homeowners Association, Inc. (the original section), Lakes at Polo Trace Homeowners Association, Inc., and Polo Trace Swim & Racquet Club Corp. These records establish separate corporations; they do not certify a home’s current assessment, eligibility or club contract.
The linked Preserve example reports $698 monthly. The linked Lakes example reports $1,990 quarterly. Both report Membership Required: no. These fields cannot establish that club access is optional, that there are no dining obligations or that every charge is included. Obtain an address-specific estoppel, adopted budget, declaration, amendments and shared-club agreement.
The county’s historical record describes redevelopment of a former golf course that was already nonoperational. Do not assume current golf privileges from old advertising or the community’s history. Verify any outside golf membership separately.
Current age restrictions, official assessment schedules, reserves and special assessments, shared-club billing, closing contributions, dining terms, purchase approval, rental and pet rules remain unverified. Ask the association for written answers before relying on a listing’s remarks.
Location & schools
Polo Trace is along the Hagen Ranch Road corridor north of Atlantic Avenue. County planning records place it between Hagen Ranch Road and Florida’s Turnpike. Test the route from the home to Atlantic Avenue shopping, Delray Marketplace, downtown Delray, the beach and your recurring destinations. Compare regional road access without assuming a fixed coastal travel time.
The district’s 2026–2027 boundary data identifies Hagen Road Elementary School, Carver Middle School and Spanish River Community High School for both 7635 Doubleton Drive and 13406 Plaza Del Sol Court. These address checks do not guarantee every property’s assignment or future boundaries.
Current homes, recent sales & next steps
Browse current homes, then confirm the section and association for each address. Compare living area, floor arrangement, lot, pool, condition, major systems and complete recurring costs. Ask Paul to organize a tour around homes that answer those questions.
Browse active Polo Trace homes, both sections ↗Start with recent closings from the right section and development phase. Read the sale terms, concessions and improvement history before adjusting for another home’s price. Prepare permits, system records and current association information alongside the marketing.
Browse Polo Trace closed sales, both sections ↗Recent examples in the IDX results include 7701 Doubleton Drive ↗, closed September 10, 2026, and 13197 Whistler Mountain Road ↗, closed August 28, 2026. Compare the development phase, property details and full terms before using either as a benchmark. These are market examples; Paul’s representation is not implied.
These searches use the Delray Beach city and Polo Trace legal-description term. They combine sections and closed results include older transactions. They are not dedicated section searches, and market records do not imply Paul represented the transactions.
Buyer & seller questions
The county’s 2018 redevelopment packet identifies 389 original homes and 324 proposed new homes, a combined planning total of 713. Use approximately 713 as a historical planning basis, not a verified current completed-home census. Confirm the count and association for the section you are considering.
No. Current Florida records show separate active residential HOA entities and a distinct Polo Trace Swim & Racquet Club corporation. Shared recreation does not establish identical fees, services or rules. Use the separate section guides and obtain the documents for the exact home.
Current MLS examples list clubhouse, pools, fitness, restaurant, tennis, pickleball and trails. Detached homes combine private living space with shared recreation. Current court counts, programs, guest access, operating rules and separate charges require association confirmation.
The two linked MLS examples report Senior Community: no. Current declaration and amendment verification remains outstanding. Confirm the exact property’s current age and occupancy rules with its association.
The county redevelopment record says the former golf course was no longer operating and describes new housing on that land. Do not assume an older golf-course description provides current golf access. Confirm any outside golf arrangement separately.
The linked Preserve example reports $698 monthly; the linked Lakes example reports $1,990 quarterly. These are property-specific MLS figures, not official fee schedules. Both report Membership Required: no, but shared-club obligations, dining terms, contributions and total charges still need written verification.
