A 248-home 55+ section

A straightforward four-home building design in a low-density villa-style setting.

High Point of Delray Section 1 has 248 residences in 62 buildings, built in 1971. Each building was designed with two one-bedroom and two two-bedroom homes, giving buyers a clear choice between a manageable seasonal residence and added guest or office space.

Though legally condominiums, the homes’ private entrances, single-story setting, patios, and green space create a residential villa feel.

Homes in Section 1

Bedroom count, corner position, and Florida-room condition can change value materially.

One-bedroom homes are common and may suit a seasonal owner or a smaller full-time household. Two-bedroom homes add useful flexibility for guests, an office, hobbies, or storage. Corner homes may offer more windows, light, and privacy.

For any Florida room or enclosed patio, confirm permits, recorded living area, air conditioning, hurricane protection, and association responsibility.

Section 1 amenities

The lake and fountain give this section a distinct neighborhood center.

The updated clubhouse overlooks a lake with a fountain and connects to the pool and recreation area. Residents have access to a heated and cooled pool, shuffleboard, billiards, library, sitting room, kitchen, dining room, lake deck, and Wi-Fi.

Dedicated pickleball and tennis are not currently identified on Section 1’s official list. Buyers who prioritize those sports should also compare High Point Sections 5, 6, and 7.

Association due diligence

Section 1 has its own budget, maintenance responsibilities, and rules.

Verify the current maintenance fee, what it includes, roof and exterior responsibility, insurance, reserves, assessments, rental rules, pet rules, parking, buyer approval procedures, and the exact telecom package. Section 1 information should not be assumed to apply to another High Point section.

Paul's take

Section 1 is a compelling starting point for buyers who want simple single-story 55+ living close to downtown.

The clear four-residence building pattern, lakeside clubhouse, heated and cooled pool, and current Wi-Fi benefit make the section easy to understand. The best purchase still comes down to bedroom count, corner position, renovation, systems, and current association financial condition.

One-time closing cost

Ask about the capital contribution before you make an offer.

Some associations require a one-time capital contribution or transfer fee at closing. It is separate from the monthly association fee and can apply to a master association, a neighborhood association, or both.

Confirm the current amount, who pays it, when it is due, and whether it is refundable for the exact home. Association requirements can change, so rely on the current written association package before you commit.
